Understanding Cervical Spinal Cord Stimulator Therapy
A cervical spinal cord stimulator (SCS) is an advanced device used to manage chronic neck and upper extremity pain when other treatments have not provided sufficient relief.
The stimulator delivers mild electrical impulses to the spinal cord, disrupting pain signals before they reach the brain, offering a non-opioid, effective method for long-term pain control.
At Complete Medical Wellness, we specialize in cervical spinal cord stimulator placement in NJ & NY, providing patients with an alternative to major surgery or chronic medication use.

Conditions Treated by Cervical Spinal Cord Stimulators
Spinal cord stimulation may be recommended for:
- Chronic cervical pain following surgery (Failed Neck Surgery Syndrome)
- Cervical radiculopathy (nerve pain in arms)
- Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS)
- Severe nerve-related neck pain unresponsive to conservative therapies
- Neuropathic pain conditions affecting the neck, shoulders, and arms
This therapy is often considered when multiple treatments — including physical therapy, injections, and medications — have not delivered lasting relief.
What to Expect During Cervical Spinal Cord Stimulator Therapy
Procedure Overview:
- A trial stimulator is placed under the skin using a minimally invasive approach.
- Leads are positioned in the epidural space near the cervical spinal cord.
- The patient tests the device over several days to assess pain relief.
- If successful, a permanent stimulator is implanted.
Benefits of Cervical Spinal Cord Stimulator Therapy:
- Cervical laminectomy
- Anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF)
- Cervical disc replacement
Patients undergo a temporary trial phase to ensure the therapy provides adequate relief before proceeding with permanent implantation.
