About Neurostimulation
Our medical technologies including neurostimulation for bladder control, help make it possible for millions of people to resume everyday activities, return to work, and live better, longer.
What Is It?
It is an implantable device that stimulates the sacral nerves with mild electrical pulses. To help discover if neurostimulation will work for you, your doctor may offer a trial assessment, so you can try neurostimulation without making a long-term commitment.
