Electrostimulation over the last decades has become one of the most promising fields regarding spinal cord recovery. The main mechanics behind it is neuromodulation - so the ability of the Central Nervous System (CMS) to restructure and make more and better connections again within the spinal cord as well as in the brain.
Epidural spinal stimulation (or just epidural stimulation) is a subcategory of Electrical Stimulation (ES) where mostly the lumbar region of the spine is targeted to make this neuroplasticity happen. To say it more precisely it is actually targeting the CPG’s in the lumbar spine region which often leads to more activity of the lower extremities.
Important to know at the moment for all epidural stimulation technologies there has to be a surgery done by a neurosurgeon. It is not a big deal in our opinion compared to what in most cases already had done to our spinal cord - but still it is a surgery, and might need a narcosis and therefore there is always a small risk to consider.
