How to use your smart programmer - (03:50)

Helpful tips

  • Follow guidelines and instructions from your healthcare provider to turn on your therapy.
  • When your therapy is initially turned on, you may feel a sensation that most people describe as a tingling, flutter, or vibration in the pelvic area. It should not be painful. That sensation may dissipate over time, and you may eventually feel nothing. This is normal and does not mean adjustments need to be made. As long as you’re having 50% or greater symptom improvement, the therapy is working.
  • Remember your programmer and communicator need to be charged. Please bring your fully charged equipment to each appointment.
  • Your programmer does not have to be on for your InterStim™ system to be working.
