Stimpod Therapy in Coral Gables, FL
Stimpod Therapy is an advanced, non-invasive treatment that uses specialized technology to deliver electromagnetic signals to nerves. These signals help alleviate pain and improve nerve function without the need for invasive procedures like surgery. At Oasis Chiropractic Center, we use this innovative approach to help patients find lasting relief from neuropathic pain and support the body’s natural healing process, making it an excellent complement to chiropractic adjustments and laser therapy.
How Stimpod Therapy Works
The Stimpod generates electromagnetic effects by utilizing a non-invasive pulsed radiofrequency that affects the cellular metabolic activity of a neuropathic nerve. The resulting cellular response changes the characteristics of the nerve, which often leads the nerve to regain its normal function while reducing pain and discomfort in the associated area. Because the treatment is drug-free and does not involve surgery, it offers a gentle alternative for patients who have not found relief through other methods or who prefer to avoid medications. Stimpod Therapy pairs well with our broader neurological offerings, including Neuro Laser (LLLT) and auricular therapy, for comprehensive nerve care.
