Chronic low back pain is a debilitating condition that affects millions of people around the world. For many, the pain can be so severe that it prevents them from doing everyday tasks like walking, sitting, and sleeping. The cause of chronic low back pain can vary, but usually it is due to an injury that has resulted in a cycle of neuromuscular inhibition and functional spine joint instability.
Currently, treatment options for chronic low back pain relief focus on covering the pain or are “palliative” whether they be medications, injections, radiofrequency ablation, etc. These type of treatments are geared toward covering up the pain and masking the pain, but they do not address the root cause of the problem. Fortunately, there is a revolutionary new device available that can help people suffering from chronic low back pain: ReActiv8.
How Does ReActiv8 Work?
ReActiv8 is Mainstay Medical‘s featured device, and it is designed to electrically stimulate nerves to activate key stabilizing muscles of the lumbar spine. Chronic low back pain consists of an ongoing cycle of muscle weakening, pain, and activation suppression of the core spine muscles by the brain. ReActiv8 is designed to stimulate the nerves responsible for contracting the multifidus muscles. The brain senses the muscle contractions, and in response can trigger restoration of muscle control. With the multifidus again providing joint stability, the continuing cycle is interrupted, facilitating a recovery from chronic low back pain.
At Performance Pain and Sports Medicine, we are proud to offer ReActiv8 as a treatment option for our patients with chronic low back pain. This innovative device has the potential to change lives and restore function to those who have been suffering and want low back pain relief.
