Repetitive Peripheral Magnetic Stimulation (RPMS): Advanced Relief for Cervical Pain
Discover a non-invasive, drug-free approach to cervical pain management. RPMS technology delivers targeted magnetic pulses to stimulate deep healing and provide lasting relief.
What is RPMS?
The Technology
Repetitive Peripheral Magnetic Stimulation uses controlled electromagnetic pulses to target peripheral nerves and muscles. The non-invasive pulses penetrate deep into tissue, unlike other external treatments that only affect surface areas.
The Benefits
RPMS has gained significant attention in pain management for its ability to relieve cervical pain, reduce inflammation, and enhance muscle function without medications or invasive procedures, making it an ideal first-line treatment.
How RPMS Works
Magnetic Stimulation
Focused electromagnetic pulses penetrate deep into the cervical region, reaching areas traditional therapies cannot access.
Enhanced Circulation
Stimulation increases blood flow to damaged tissues, delivering oxygen and nutrients essential for healing.
Repeated sessions gradually restore normal muscle function and reduce chronic tension patterns.
Key Benefits of RPMS Therapy
Pain Reduction
Significant decrease in acute and chronic neck pain intensity, with many patients reporting relief after just a few sessions. RPMS targets deep pain sources that medication often cannot reach.
Improved Mobility
Enhanced range of motion and flexibility in the cervical spine, allowing patients to return to normal daily activities. Improvements typically continue throughout the treatment course.
Non-Pharmacological
Completely drug-free approach eliminates concerns about medication side effects, dependency, or drug interactions, making it suitable for patients with multiple health conditions.
Conditions Treated with RPMS
Cervical Radiculopathy
Relieves nerve compression symptoms including radiating arm pain, numbness, and tingling.
Whiplash
Accelerates recovery from accident-related neck trauma and reduces persistent pain.
Chronic Cervical Pain
Addresses long-term neck pain that hasn't responded to conventional treatments.
Muscle Spasms
Relaxes persistent neck and upper back muscle contractions and tension.
The Treatment Experience
1
Initial Assessment
Comprehensive evaluation of your cervical pain, medical history, and treatment goals to create a personalized RPMS protocol.
2
Treatment Setup
You'll relax in a comfortable position while the specialist positions the electromagnetic coil precisely over target areas in your neck.
3
Stimulation Session
The device delivers precisely calibrated magnetic pulses for 20-30 minutes. Most patients describe a gentle tapping sensation without discomfort.
4
Follow-up Care
Typically 6-10 sessions scheduled over several weeks, with progress evaluations to adjust treatment parameters as needed.
Clinical Effectiveness
Clinical studies demonstrate significant pain reduction over a complete 10-treatment RPMS protocol. Most patients experience noticeable improvement after the first few treatments, with continued gains throughout the entire course, resulting in minimal pain by the conclusion of therapy.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is RPMS painful or uncomfortable?
Most patients report only a mild tapping sensation during treatment. RPMS is designed to be comfortable and non-invasive, with no recovery time needed after sessions. Treatment parameters can be adjusted if you experience any discomfort.
How many sessions will I need?
While individual responses vary, most patients with cervical pain require 6-10 sessions to achieve optimal results. Your provider will develop a personalized treatment plan based on your specific condition and response to therapy.
Is RPMS covered by insurance?
Many insurance plans now cover RPMS therapy for cervical pain, especially when prescribed by a physician. Coverage varies by provider and policy. Our staff can help verify your benefits before beginning treatment.
Are there any side effects?
RPMS is considered very safe with minimal side effects. Some patients may experience temporary mild fatigue or slight discomfort at the treatment site, but these typically resolve quickly without intervention.
