Mechanical chronic low back pain results from an injury or stress on the tissues surrounding the spine, including soft tissues, muscles, bones, and joints. Often times, this type of pain is due to impaired neuromuscular control and neural inhibition of the multifidus, which is the largest stabilizing muscle in your back.

ReActiv8 is the first and only restorative treatment option for mechanical chronic low back pain as a result of multifidus dysfunction, and aims to restore the neuromuscular control between the brain and spine.

The ReActiv8 device is implanted underneath the skin during a minimally invasive outpatient procedure:

  • A generator is connected to two electrical leads, which are positioned to stimulate the nerves that control your multifidus muscle.
  • You control your twice-daily, 30-minute therapy sessions, which can feel like a deep tissue massage.

Is ReActiv8 right for you?
