Description of Service

Unika Medical Centre has launched an innovative, non-invasive treatment for a variety of nerve-related conditions. Unlike traditional “nerve blocks” that use needles, our method soothes painful signals using pulsed radiofrequency waves directed through the skin—no needles involved!

How It Works

Our clinical evaluation identifies the nerve responsible for symptoms such as chronic pain, nerve palsy, and other conditions. Depending on the specific issue, we treat either a motor nerve (e.g., facial nerve palsy, drop foot) or a nerve conducting pain (e.g., diabetic neuropathy, trigeminal syndromes, headaches), or other injured nerves (e.g., pain after knee replacement). The method is based on the same principles as percutaneous pulsed RF. However, with our proprietary setup and protocol, we achieve the same or even better results non-invasively.

Why Choose Unika Medical Centre for Non-Invasive Nerve Block and Stimulation?
  • Exclusive Availability: Unika Medical is the only place where this innovative treatment is available.
  • No-Needle Approach: Our non-invasive nerve block and stimulation are based on the use of pulsed radiofrequency (electromagnetic energy) to modify nerve conduction.
  • Proprietary Waveforms: We utilize proprietary waveforms to either block pain conduction or stimulate motor nerve fibers.
  • Extensive Experience: We have successfully treated numerous patients with facial pain, headaches, nerve injuries, neuropathies, and other conditions.
Treatment Process

The affected nerve is first located using ultrasound imaging. The painless treatment is then performed for 5-10 minutes. Our approach ensures precision and efficacy, providing significant relief without the need for invasive procedures. Additionally, we offer a trial and treatment of acute conditions at no charge to evaluate the effectiveness of our method.

Case Study: Mr. L’s Trigeminal Neuralgia Relief

Mr. L, a 67-year-old patient with severe trigeminal neuralgia, had previously undergone two radiofrequency ablations and was suffering from a relapse. Unable to tolerate medications, he lost 12 pounds due to his inability to chew food. After four sessions of our electromagnetic block, his attacks reduced to 1-2 per day and became short and mild. He continues to receive monthly prophylactic treatments.

FAQs: Non-Invasive (No Injections) Nerve Block and Stimulation

A non-invasive nerve block uses electromagnetic energy to modify nerve conduction, providing pain relief without the need for injections or surgery.

Nerve stimulation involves using electromagnetic waves to either block pain signals or stimulate motor nerves, helping to alleviate pain and restore function.

This treatment is effective for conditions like facial pain, headaches, nerve injuries, neuropathies, and certain chronic pain syndromes.

No, the procedure is painless and performed without needles, making it a comfortable option for patients seeking pain relief.

Many patients experience relief shortly after treatment, with continued improvement over the course of a few sessions.
