NALU™ Peripheral Nerve Stimulation: A New Option for Chronic Knee and Shoulder Pain
Find Lasting Relief Without Major Surgery
Living with chronic knee or shoulder pain can make even the simplest daily activities feel impossible. Whether you’re struggling to climb stairs, reach overhead, exercise, or sleep comfortably, persistent joint pain can significantly affect your quality of life.
If medications, injections, physical therapy, or previous surgeries haven’t provided lasting relief, the NALU™ Peripheral Nerve Stimulation (PNS) System may offer a new solution.
At Spine & Joint Pain Specialists, we’re committed to providing innovative, minimally invasive treatments that help patients regain function and reduce pain without relying on long-term opioid medications.
What Is Peripheral Nerve Stimulation?
Peripheral Nerve Stimulation (PNS) is an advanced pain management treatment that targets the specific nerves responsible for transmitting pain signals from an injured or arthritic joint.
The NALU™ PNS System interrupts pain signals before they reach the brain. Instead of masking pain with medication, it helps change how your nervous system processes pain, allowing many patients to experience significant and lasting relief. PNS focuses on individual peripheral nerves, making it an excellent option for localized joint pain.
Key Benefits of the NALU™ PNS include:
- Minimally invasive outpatient procedure
- Targeted therapy for knee and shoulder pain
- Customizable stimulation settings
- Helps improve mobility and daily function
Unlike traditional surgery or long-term medication management, NALU PNS works by modulating pain signals at the nerve level. This means the treatment is focused, adjustable, and designed for patients who have already exhausted conservative options.
This may be appropriate option if you:
- Have chronic knee or shoulder pain lasting more than 3 months
- Have not responded well to injections, therapy, or medications
- Want to avoid or delay surgery
- Are looking for a non-opioid pain solution
If chronic knee or shoulder pain is limiting you, NALU PNS offers an innovative minimally invasive treatment that directly targets the source of pain—not just the symptoms.
A consultation with a provider at Spine & Joint Pain Specialists can determine if you are a candidate and whether this therapy is right for you.
