DEVICE

Transcutaneous Spinal Cord Stimulation

This non-invasive therapeutic modality uses electrodes applied over the skin to deliver electrical stimulation. It is based on the same principles of ground-breaking work from the investigator's group and others, showing that stimulation of the spinal cord can promote motor and autonomic (cardiovascular, bladder, bowel) recovery in individuals with chronic SCI.
