Peripheral Nerve Stimulation (PNS) is a pain management treatment that uses a small electrical device to send gentle electrical pulses to a specific nerve outside the brain and spinal cord. These pulses can help reduce pain signals before they reach the brain.
Peripheral Nerve Stimulation (PNS) placement is generally not considered very painful, though you can expect some temporary discomfort during and after the procedure.
Most insurance plans are accepted. Coverage depends on your plan and treatment type. Some regenerative therapies (like PRP or stem cells) may be cash-pay only.
The answer depends on the type of Peripheral Nerve Stimulation (PNS) system being used.
Temporary PNS systems
Some modern PNS devices are designed to stay in place for about 60 days (2 months).
During this time:
A thin lead is placed near the target nerve.
The patient wears a small external stimulator.
At the end of treatment, the lead is removed in the clinic.
Many patients are interested in these systems because they are not intended to be permanent implants.
Long-term or permanent PNS systems
Other PNS systems are implanted for long-term use.
In these cases:
The lead remains near the nerve.
A battery-powered stimulator is implanted under the skin or connected to an implanted receiver.
The system can remain in place for years if it continues to provide benefit.
The biggest difference between SPRINT and Nalu is that SPRINT is usually a temporary PNS system, while Nalu is designed as a long-term implanted neurostimulation system.
Do I need surgery if these don’t work?
Not necessarily. Many patients find lasting relief without surgery. If surgery becomes the best option, our treatments often help delay or reduce the need for invasive procedures.
