What is PSTIM and how does it work?

PSTIM is a microchip-controlled pulsed neurotransmitter. It provides a continuous flow of intermittent, low frequency electrical pulses to specific peripheral nerves with end locations in the ear relieving many types of acute and chronic pain.

Application can be accomplished in a productive time frame. Percutaneously placed, the device continues to provide peripheral nerve stimulation for four consecutive days.

Because the device is light weight (7g) and size, patients can continue to enjoy normal daily activities during treatment. Depending on the level and length of a patient’s pain, PSTIM may be placed up to nine sessions a week apart, with increasing pain relief throughout the series of treatments. PSTIM may also be used for post operative pain management and other symptom specific treatments.
