I have a spine stimulator a nd yes it does help quite a bit, but I don’t get relief above my waist.ihave to turn it up and when I have sciatica I have it so high I can’t walk but those are times I probably shpuld be resting anyway It helps neuropathy in my feet too! It takes a minute to get used to it and find the settings right for you. Make sure you get one that isMTI compatible

Let by me add it’s not the be all end all. It’s like an adjunctive therapy. It works some but may not get rid of 100% of your pain. It does help me. I wish the stimulation went up all the way to my neck and shoulders. I had a Boston scientific montage but they have a newer model. I can get MRI at most places. That’s important. You must work with the person they send to your Drs appts to get the settings the way you want them, that’s very important and that could possibly take up to 6 months but don’t give up! Like most treatments it doesn’t do too much for sciatica unless I return it up high!
