how does SPRINT Peripheral Nerve Stimulation (PNS) help my treatment plan?
- Durable Pain Relief Without Surgery: May provide months to years of sustained pain reduction without permanent hardware or permanent implants left in your body.
- Non-Opioid Treatment: May reduce or eliminate reliance on prescription medications.
- Reversible & Temporary: A 60-day wearable system that is easily removed in-office at the end of treatment.
who can benefit from SPRINT Peripheral Nerve Stimulation (PNS)?
You are an ideal candidate if you:
- Post-Stroke Shoulder Pain: Provides targeted peripheral nerve stimulation to ease chronic hemiplegic shoulder pain and subluxation discomfort following a stroke.
- Persistent Joint Replacement Pain (Knee & Shoulder): Delivers non-surgical relief for patients experiencing ongoing pain after knee or shoulder replacement surgery when hardware is intact.
- Post-Amputation Pain (Residual Limb & Phantom Pain): Targets irritated nerve trunks or painful neuromas directly to address residual limb and phantom limb pain.
- Chronic Spine, Joint & Nerve Pain: Offers effective non-surgical relief for chronic lower back, neck, shoulder, and post-surgical nerve conditions.
SPRINT Peripheral Nerve Stimulation (PNS)
The SPRINT Peripheral Nerve Stimulation (PNS) System is a drug-free, non-surgical 60-day treatment designed to provide long-term relief for severe chronic pain. A micro-lead (a tiny, flexible wire about the thickness of two human hairs) is placed under the skin near the target peripheral nerve causing your pain. Connected to a small, wearable pulse generator, the system delivers mild electrical pulses that condition the nerve and retrain your brain's pain perception—with the goal of delivering sustained relief long after the 60-day device is removed.
What to Expect During the Procedure
- Micro-Placement: Under local anesthesia and live image guidance, a microscopic wire lead is positioned next to the target nerve through a small needle. No surgical incisions are required. The nerve is then stimulated to ensure proper placement.
- 60-Day Treatment Period: The tiny lead is attached to a lightweight pulse generator worn comfortably on your skin. You control stimulation levels with a Bluetooth remote while going about your daily routine.
- Removal: After 60 days, the micro-lead is slipped out gently during a quick office visit.

Endurance Athlete Medicine
Performance & Overuse Care for Runners, Cyclists, and Triathletes
Endurance injuries stem from repetitive microtrauma, rapid training load spikes, and subtle biomechanical inefficiencies. Unlike contact trauma, endurance conditions require addressing the underlying root cause of mechanical breakdown so you can train consistently without chronic pain.
Diagnostic & Treatment Solutions
We partner with local runners, cyclists, and triathletes to keep them training safely:
- High-Resolution Ultrasound: Detecting early tendon degeneration, bursitis, and fluid collection before a partial tear occurs.
- Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy: Stimulating natural healing in chronic, stubborn tendinopathies without requiring months of complete rest.
- Load Management Guidance: Helping you adjust training volume safely while incorporating cross-training to preserve aerobic cardiovascular fitness.
Don't wait for pain to dictate your lifestyle.
What are the Common Symptoms & Root Causes of Overuse Injuries?
- Symptoms: Aching pain during long runs or rides, persistent tendon stiffness, focal bone tenderness, chronic muscle tightness, and declining performance.
- Causes: Rapid mileage or elevation spikes, improper bike fit or footwear, glute/core weakness, and high-volume training on steep terrain across the Wasatch region.
When should i seek Endurance care?
- Performance Limits: You experience recurring pain limiting your running mileage, cycling wattage, or swimming endurance.
- Race Preparation: You are training for an upcoming marathon, ultra, or triathlon and need to resolve nagging overuse pain.
- Recurrent Setbacks: You suffer from the same seasonal overuse injuries year after year.
