Boston Scientific's Pain Management business is the innovation leader in less invasive microelectronic implantable technologies used to treat chronic neuropathic pain. The use of minute pulses of electricity delivered directly to nerves, known as Spinal Cord Stimulation, has been in use for more than 30 years. Without the unwanted side effects and long term costs associated with pain medications, and less invasive than surgical procedures such as spinal fusion, Spinal Cord Stimulation is a reversible therapy that has helped thousands of people find relief from chronic pain.  Visit Boston Scientific Neuromodulation to learn more.

The National Pain Foundation

The National Pain Foundation (NPF) is built on the belief that early intervention of pain conditions can positively change the direction of a person's life. The organization was created to serve the 75 million Americans living with chronic pain. The NPF recognizes that pain is real. It is a disease in and of itself that needs to be diagnosed and managed as comprehensively as any other disease. Our goal is to empower patients by helping them become actively involved in the design of their treatment plan, exploring both traditional and complementary approaches to pain management.  Visit The National Pain Foundation to learn more.
