ReActiv8® Restorative Neurostimulation

Restore Muscle. Reduce Pain. Regain Life with ReActiv8.

ReActiv8 is a minimally invasive restorative neurostimulation system that targets the lumbar nerves to reactivate weakened multifidus muscles, improving stability, mobility, and long-term pain control for people suffering from mechanical chronic low back pain (CLBP).

On average, people with mechanical CLBP treated with ReActiv8 showed substantial improvements in pain, disability, and quality of life after one year.1

How does it work?

ReActiv8 delivers gentle electrical impulses to the lumbar nerves to prompt multifidus muscle contractions. Over time, this rehabilitative stimulation conditions the muscle, improves spinal support, and reduces mechanical pain.

How do I know if ReActiv8 is right for me?

The ReActiv8 therapy is often used in conjunction with physical therapy and other rehabilitative techniques to enhance recovery and functionality. You may benefit from the ReActiv8 procedure if you have:

  • Chronic low back pain not relieved by conservative treatments
  • Muscle weakness or atrophy in the lower back
  • Difficulty with daily activities due to persistent pain
  • Conditions such as degenerative disc disease or facet joint syndrome
  • Patients seeking alternatives to more invasive spine surgery

What to expect?

  • Consultation: Comprehensive evaluation and imaging as needed to confirm suitability.
  • Procedure: Quick, minimally invasive outpatient procedure—usually under local anesthesia; most patients go home the same day.
  • Activation and Adjustment: After the procedure, you will be scheduled for follow-up visits to adjust the stimulation settings based on your comfort and treatment goals.
  • Ongoing use: Patient-initiated 30-minute sessions twice daily to rebuild muscle function.
