Spinal Cord Stimulator
At Tennessee Pain Associates, we offer advanced Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS) therapy to provide effective, lasting relief for chronic pain. SCS is a minimally invasive treatment that uses a small, implantable device to deliver mild electrical impulses to the spinal cord, helping to block pain signals before they reach the brain. This innovative therapy is particularly effective for individuals with chronic back, leg, or nerve pain who have not found relief with other treatments.
How Spinal Cord Stimulation Works
The SCS device consists of a pulse generator, placed under the skin, which sends electrical impulses to targeted nerves in the spinal cord. These impulses replace pain with a mild tingling sensation, providing relief without the need for long-term medication or invasive surgery.
Benefits of Spinal Cord Stimulation

Customized Pain Relief: SCS therapy is personalized to each patient, allowing adjustments to meet individual pain relief needs.

Minimally Invasive: The SCS implant procedure is relatively simple and involves a brief recovery period.
