How Stimpod tPRF Therapy Works
Non‑invasive Nerve Restoration for Sciatica, Neuropathy, Foot drop, Numbness 

Stimpod therapy uses Transcutaneous Pulsed Radiofrequency (tPRF) to stimulate and repair dysfunctional nerves, reaching the peripheral nerves and travelling along the axon toward both the spinal dorsal root ganglion and the nerve endings.

Why It Helps 

Sciatica and neuropathic symptoms occur when the sciatic nerve or its branches become irritated, compressed, or metabolically impaired. This can lead to:

Radiating leg pain

Numbness or tingling in the foot

Weakness in ankle dorsiflexion (foot drop)

Burning or electric‑shock sensations

tPRF therapy targets the root cause, the dysfunctional nerve itself, rather than only masking symptoms.

Who Can Benefit ( non‑invasive, drug‑free, and has no known side effects)

tPRF therapy is used for:

• Sciatica and radiculopathy

• Peripheral neuropathy (including diabetic neuropathy)

• Foot drop due to nerve irritation

• Numbness, tingling, burning sensations

• Post‑surgical nerve irritation

• Trigeminal neuralgia, Bell’s palsy

• Chronic nerve pain and hypersensitivity

Not Suitable (Contraindications):

• People with implanted electronic devices
  (pacemakers, ICDs, spinal cord stimulators, deep brain stimulators, implanted pumps)

• Pregnant individuals

• People with active cancer in the treatment area

• Individuals with uncontrolled epilepsy or seizure disorders

These short bursts of radiofrequency energy help:

• Recharge mitochondria inside damaged nerves

• Reverse micro‑structural changes associated with neuropathy

• Restore normal nerve communication

• Reduce abnormal pain signalling

• Improve muscle activation and sensory function

How many sessions are needed for tPRF therapy?
Most patients require 3–5 sessions to achieve noticeable therapeutic benefits, although the exact number may vary depending on the severity of the condition.
Each session lasts 15–30 minutes and includes patient education and an individualized exercise program.
