What is Peripheral Nerve Stimulation (PNS)?

Peripheral Nerve Stimulation (PNS) represents a groundbreaking advancement in neuropathy treatment. This Medicare-covered, minimally invasive procedure offers hope for patients suffering from chronic nerve pain, with success rates reaching 90-95%.

At Eagle Rock Neuropathy & Pain Center in Idaho Falls, we're proud to be one of the only regional providers specializing in this revolutionary Medicare-approved neuromodulation therapy.

How Peripheral Nerve Stimulation Works

PNS involves placing a tiny stimulator directly next to the nerve causing your pain. This device sends gentle electrical pulses that:

  • Retrain the nerve to function properly
  • Interrupt pain signals before they reach the brain
  • Restore normal function without drugs or major surgery

The procedure is performed in just 30 minutes as an outpatient treatment, with no hospital stay required.

Advanced Diagnostic Testing: Finding the Root Cause

Before any treatment, we use state-of-the-art diagnostic tools to pinpoint the exact source of your nerve dysfunction:

Computerized Neuromechanical Testing

This advanced testing measures how your nerves, muscles, and joints interact during motion to detect functional abnormalities that traditional tests might miss.

ANS (Autonomic Nervous System) Testing

Comprehensive assessment of involuntary nerve control of circulation, sweating, and other vital functions affected by neuropathy.

These advanced diagnostics allow us to customize your PNS treatment with unmatched precision, contributing to our exceptional 90-95% success rate.

Conditions Successfully Treated with PNS

Peripheral Nerve Stimulation has proven highly effective for various nerve pain conditions:

Diabetic Neuropathy
Post-Surgical Nerve Pain
