    For patients who experience chronic pain due to diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) and have not been satisfied by the levels of relief provided by traditional treatments, SCS can provide a new approach. 

    What is SCS?

    Spinal cord stimulation is a proven, non-opioid, FDA-approved way to manage chronic pain that may be caused by DPN. SCS works by disrupting the pain signals traveling between the spinal cord and the brain.
