We understand that living with persistent pain can feel overwhelming, impacting your mood, energy, and daily routines. While you may have tried medications or therapies, relief still seems out of reach.
What if there was another solution?
At Brainwaves Neuro Restoration Center, Magnetic Peripheral Nerve Stimulation (mPNS) is a breakthrough pain relief therapy that can reduce pain by up to 87% without surgery or added discomfort. Both our Warwick, RI and Wellesley Hills, MA locations now offer mPNS as a non-invasive, drug-free path to lasting relief.
Many patients with chronic pain are often given limited options for pain management. As the first mPNS provider in New England, Brainwaves Neuro Restoration Center brings this FDA-cleared technology directly to patients across New England. Magnetic Peripheral Nerve Stimulation (mPNS) is designed to relieve chronic, post-traumatic, and post-surgical nerve pain in adults 18 and older. mPNS provides an alternative to opioids and other medications, helping to reduce dependency, and offers a non-invasive approach to pain relief without the risks typically associated with surgery or invasive procedures.
mPNS (Magnetic Peripheral Nerve Stimulation) uses the same treatment coil employed in MeRT® therapy but in shorter, more targeted sessions. The magnetic pulses stimulate the nerves around where patients are experiencing pain, reconditioning the central nervous system and blocking specific signals to the brain. This process normalizes nerve function, which helps reduce how intensely a person perceives pain signals. This effectively reduces neuropathic pain, which can significantly improve a patient’s quality of life.
Patients from both our Warwick and Wellesley locations have reported improvements such as:
There are many conditions that cause chronic pain, and some respond better to mPNS treatment than others. Patients experiencing pain due to the following conditions may experience greater benefits:
Additionally, mPNS may be an excellent alternative for individuals experiencing any form of chronic pain with a history of substance use or opioid dependency.
mPNS is currently available as a self-pay treatment and is not yet covered by insurance. However, we’ve structured our pricing to make this therapy as accessible as possible.
Initial Treatment Plan: $500
Your $500 covers the complete 8-week clinical protocol, including:
Timing
Each session is approximately 13 minutes per treatment location. If more than one area requires treatment, your physician will discuss any additional charges during your assessment.
Magnetic Peripheral Nerve Stimulation is a drug-free, non-surgical treatment that uses gentle magnetic pulses to target specific nerves associated with chronic pain. Cleared by the FDA, it’s specifically designed to address chronic pain resulting from traumatic injuries or surgery. The therapy offers an alternative for those seeking relief without invasive procedures or medication.
One perceived initiation of chronic neuropathic pain is the loss of the inhibitory function of Alpha-Beta nerve fibers, often due to degradation or damage of the myelin sheath. Magnetic fields pass through soft tissue unobstructed and, therefore, can be targeted directly. These magnetic pulses alter how nerve signals are processed, either blocking the transmission of pain signals or changing the way the brain interprets pain. This can disrupt abnormal pain signaling patterns often seen in chronic pain conditions.
Studies report an average of 54% pain reduction after one session, with 72% relief by the third. Clinical results suggest that patients may experience up to 87% reduction in pain by the end of treatment, often with relief lasting several weeks post-treatment. This level of efficacy makes it a promising option for chronic pain sufferers who may not have had success with other treatments. The therapy’s effectiveness varies, but many patients report significant, sustained relief.
mPNS offers numerous advantages, particularly its non-invasive, painless approach that reduces the need for opioids, helping lower potential dependence by up to 51%. Additionally, patients avoid side effects typically associated with pain medications, making it an appealing option for long-term pain management.
Yes, it’s an FDA-cleared, non-invasive treatment with minimal risks, making it a suitable option for those concerned about medication side effects or surgical risks. There’s no need for anesthesia, and patients can resume normal activities immediately.
This therapy is best suited for those with chronic pain from traumatic injuries or post-surgical complications. It’s ideal for individuals looking for a non-pharmaceutical, non-surgical approach to pain management, but specific eligibility should be discussed with a healthcare provider.
Yes, it can safely complement other pain management therapies, like physical therapy or certain medications, depending on the patient’s condition. This flexibility allows healthcare providers to tailor a holistic pain management plan.
mPNS is beneficial for chronic pain, nerve injuries, neuropathies, and musculoskeletal disorders.
Generally, no. Patients may feel mild tingling but describe it as comfortable overall.
mPNS generally has minimal to no side effects. Patients may feel a tingling sensation during treatment, but it’s typically well-tolerated without lasting discomfort.
No, mPNS is not currently covered by insurance. However, we accept CareCredit financing, and payments via HSA/FSA cards are also welcome.
