Percutaneous neuromodulation (PNE) in Barcelona
For when the problem is not the muscle but the signal reaching it. Electrical stimulation delivered by needle directly onto the nerve.
Some pain cannot be explained by the state of the tissue: the muscle is intact but will not switch on, or something that should have healed still hurts. In those cases the nervous system is part of the problem. Neuromodulation applies current to the nerve responsible in order to normalise that signal, restore muscle activation and reduce pain. It is always paired with exercise, because the goal is to get the muscle working again.
What it is for
- Chronic pain out of proportion to the tissue damage
- Muscle inhibition after injury or surgery
- Referred pain of nerve origin
- Restoring motor control in areas that will not activate
Who it is for
Persistent pain with no injury to justify it, and muscles that will not switch on despite strength work.
