Peripheral Nerve Q&A

What is Peripheral Nerve Stimulation?

Peripheral Nerve Stimulation (PNS) is a minimally invasive procedure involving placing a small electrical device near the peripheral nerves responsible for transmitting pain signals to the brain. By delivering mild electrical impulses, this device helps to interrupt these pain signals, reducing or eliminating pain in the affected area.
