Managing chronic painOccipital nerve stimulationEvery year, thousands of people are involved in car accidents, long falls or other traumatic events that may leave them with head and neck injuries that lead to chronic headaches. For a long time, sufferers were told they had to learn to live with it or endure a regular drug regimen to deaden the pain. But now there's a new option: Occipital nerve stimulation. And Aurora Pain Management was one of the pioneers in implementing this innovative treatment, which involves implanting tiny electrodes under the skin of a patient. These electrodes send electrical impulses that block pain messages. So many patients who previously had to live with chronic migraines can now enjoy life with little or no pain. Pain Management is the fastest growing specialty in medicine because pain affects so many lives. Occipital nerve stimulation is just one of many leading-edge treatments available to alleviate pain through Aurora's Pain Management team of experts. It is our hope that our constant search will lead us to treatments that can ease the pain of all who suffer. Additional information & resources about pain management
