These nerves control movement, motor coordination, and sensation—making them critical to everyday function and long-term health.

At True Performance RSF, we offer this innovative, non-opioid therapy to help patients manage chronic and acute pain while restoring communication between the brain and body.
Peripheral nerve stimulation (also known as Functional Electrical Stimulation, or FES) is a non-invasive treatment that uses carefully directed electrical currents to stimulate targeted nerves in the face and body.
This stimulation encourages the brain and nervous system to respond more effectively, easing pain while promoting growth factors at the synapses (nerve connections). The result is faster, more efficient communication between the brain, spinal cord, and body—helping patients regain function and reduce pain naturally.
Conditions that may benefit from PNS include:
At True Performance RSF, every treatment begins with comprehensive diagnostic testing. We carefully evaluate your health, neurological function, and pain symptoms to determine whether peripheral nerve stimulation is the right option for you.
Based on this assessment, we develop an individualized treatment plan that pinpoints the exact nerves to stimulate—activating the brain regions and neural pathways most affected by your condition.
One of the most powerful applications of PNS is in stroke and traumatic brain injury recovery.
Many stroke and TBI patients struggle to regain motor control, balance, or the ability to walk. Our specialized gait protocol stimulates the saphenous and tibial nerves in the affected leg(s), priming neural pathways with electrical impulses. This process improves brain-to-muscle communication, enhancing rehabilitation outcomes and helping patients redevelop damaged pathways.
PNS offers a wide range of benefits for patients dealing with neurological injury, chronic pain, or motor dysfunction, including:
By restoring proper communication within the nervous system, peripheral nerve stimulation helps patients reclaim mobility, independence, and quality of life.
If you’re living with chronic pain, neuropathy, or the lasting effects of a stroke or TBI, peripheral nerve stimulation at True Performance RSF may be the solution you’ve been searching for. Our Rancho Santa Fe specialists combine advanced neurological therapies with personalized care to help patients achieve long-term relief and recovery.
