Join a no-cost clinical trial using the latest in spinal cord stimulation therapy, designed to reduce chronic nerve pain and improve daily comfort.

Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS) uses gentle electrical pulses to calm pain signals travelling to the brain. The system automatically adjusts therapy in real time to keep pain relief consistent, whether you’re sitting, standing, or moving.

No-Cost Clinical Trial

Eligible participants can access advanced therapy at no charge.

Comfortable Experience

Light sedation provided during the trial for your comfort.

Advanced Imaging Precision

Light sedation provided during the trial for your comfort.

Two Convenient Locations

Temecula or Linda Vista (San Diego).

Major Insurance Accepted

Broad coverage for peace of mind.

If you’re living with chronic back, leg, or nerve pain that hasn’t improved with other treatments, you may qualify for this no-cost clinical trial testing spinal cord stimulation (SCS) therapy.

You may be eligible if:

• You are 18 or older.
• You’ve had chronic back, leg, or nerve pain for at least 3 months.
• Standard treatments (like medications, therapy, or injections) have not worked.
• You have not had a spinal cord stimulator (SCS) implant before.
• You can attend visits in Temecula or Linda Vista (San Diego).

What’s Involved:

• A short, trial-first approach – test the therapy for 3–7 days before deciding on an implant.
• Light sedation is provided during the trial for your comfort.
• Advanced imaging helps doctors place the SCS leads in the ideal position.
• All study-related care and follow-up visits are covered at no cost to you.

• A 3–7 day trial of the spinal cord stimulation system at no cost.

• Care from a specialist pain management team in Temecula or Linda Vista (San Diego).

• Light sedation during the trial for your comfort and peace of mind.

• Advanced imaging used during the procedure to ensure precise lead placement.

• Ongoing support and follow-up visits to monitor your progress.

• The opportunity to experience real pain relief before deciding on a permanent implant.

• Test the latest closed-loop therapy device, which automatically adjusts stimulation to your body’s movement and posture for consistent relief.

• No cost, no long-term commitment — the system is only implanted permanently if you experience meaningful pain reduction.

• Clinical studies show many patients experience 50% or greater pain relief and improved quality of life.

• Convenient, local care — procedures in Temecula, with follow-ups in San Diego (Linda Vista) or Temecula.

• May reduce reliance on pain medication and help restore daily activity.

Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS) helps manage long-term pain by sending gentle electrical pulses to calm the nerves that carry pain signals to the brain. The goal is to reduce pain and help people return to normal daily activities.

This study also uses advanced imaging technology to help your doctor place the SCS leads in the ideal position, ensuring precise targeting of the nerves involved in pain and improving overall comfort and therapy effectiveness.

Stage 1 – Trial Phase (Temporary Test)

• Thin flexible wires, called leads, are placed near the spinal cord through a small needle while you are comfortably sedated (in a light sleep).

• These leads are connected to a small external stimulator that you wear for about a week.

• During this time, you and your doctor can assess how well the therapy reduces pain and improves function.

• If you feel meaningful pain relief, you may move to the next step.

Stage 2 – Permanent Implant (Long-Term Therapy)

• If the trial is successful, a small battery (about the size of a pacemaker) is implanted under the skin of your lower back or upper buttock.

• The leads are connected to this stimulator, which delivers gentle electrical pulses to your spinal cord.

• The system is adjustable, rechargeable, and fully programmable.

• You’ll have a handheld controller to fine-tune settings for your comfort.

• The system automatically adjusts stimulation based on your posture and movement, helping keep pain relief consistent throughout the day.

The procedure is minimally invasive, typically performed under sedation, and most patients return home the same day.

Check Your Eligibility for the No-Cost Clinical Trial

Complete the quick form below to see if you qualify for the Spinal Cord Stimulation study.

Most major insurances accepted. Procedures available in Temecula or Linda Vista (San Diego).

By submitting this form, you consent to be contacted by Solaris Research Institute about participation in the clinical trial. Your information will remain confidential and used only for eligibility screening.

The System Includes

• A small implanted stimulator (similar in size to a mini pacemaker).

• Thin leads placed near the spinal cord to deliver gentle electrical pulses.

• A handheld wireless controller that lets you or your doctor adjust settings easily.

• The system is rechargeable, fully programmable, and designed for long-term use. Because it adapts to your body’s feedback, most patients experience consistent pain relief throughout the day with minimal need for manual adjustments.
