Multifidus stimulation is an advanced treatment designed to manage chronic lower back pain by targeting the multifidus muscle, a key stabilising muscle of the spine. Weakness or dysfunction of this muscle is a common cause of persistent back pain.
This innovative therapy works by restoring muscle function and improving spinal stability. Dr. Kavita Poply offers a precise and patient-focused approach to multifidus stimulation, helping patients achieve long-term relief and improved mobility.
What is Multifidus Stimulation?
Multifidus stimulation involves the use of an implantable or external device that delivers gentle electrical impulses to activate the multifidus muscle. These signals help strengthen the muscle, improve coordination, and support the spine.
Unlike treatments that only mask pain, this therapy addresses the underlying cause by restoring muscle function.
