How good are epidural stimulators for this?

What do you mean by 'prosthesis ?" please see my article on the ACOPM website (American College of Physical Medicine) and click on "JOURNAL." There is only one article listed and it is not really peer -reviewed but is a study of 551 patients treated with the ReBuilder electrical device. The results are excellent but since this was a convenience study I am now planning a prospective study with this device.

Neuropathy can be improved ! And probably prevented. I also have an article coming out in December PPM (Practical Pain Management) about the necessity of EMG- NCV in lower extremity pain. Hope these help.
