Spinal Stimulation 2


You may have read this somewhere else by now, because dozens of news reports are on the internet, and on the TV. The discovery is that Spinal Cord Stimulation works, and that it works better then deep brain stimulation! It seems it is simpler to do and the results are excellent. Rodents tested moved 26 times faster when the electrical treatment was turned on. And they did so in an average of 2.5 seconds!
Of course you and I are not rodents. Testing will have to continue. One of the things that are not clear at the moment is if the results are long lasting or not. Will you get the same dramatic results every time you turn it on?
Why don't you google the news by entering SPINAL CORD STIMULATION and get informed.
