Now there's a much less invasive treatment option -- Percutaneous Neuromodulation
Therapy, or PNT. Using innovative technology, Vertis PNI delivers electrical
stimulation directly to the deep tissues in order to reach the nerve pathways
in the central nervous system that can affect the pain. It is believed that this
type of stimulation arrests or reverses the imbalance that causes persistent
and unremitting pain.
Clinical research studies have shown that electrical
stimulation delivered directly to the deep tissues reduces pain for many patients.
In addition to pain relief, benefits often include less reliance on pain medications,
increased physical activity, and improved sleep. Results of several multicenter
clinical studies show PNT to be a highly reliable and effective treatment for
spinal pain with no significant side effects or complications reported.
Vertis PNT is an FDA-cleared, minimally invasive therapy. Your doctor may recommend
a course of PNT by itself, or in combination with other therapies.
