Transcutaneous Neuromodulation for Rehabilitation and Medicine
Practical, evidence-informed resources on transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation (tVNS) and transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation (tSCS) for clinicians, case managers, and patients across the UK and Ireland.
What is neuromodulation?
Neuromodulation uses carefully targeted electrical stimulation to change the way the nervous system functions. It is not a new idea. Scientists have studied the effects of electrical stimulation on nerves for well over two centuries, but recent advances have made it possible to deliver these benefits safely through the skin, without surgery. Transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation (tSCS) and transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation (tVNS) are two approaches at the forefront of this shift, each targeting different parts of the nervous system to support recovery from neurological conditions such as spinal cord injury, stroke, and multiple sclerosis.
Why does it matter?
The evidence is building steadily. Research now shows that when non-invasive neuromodulation is combined with active rehabilitation, it can enhance neuroplasticity: the nervous system's ability to reorganise and form new connections. For people living with conditions that were once considered beyond the reach of therapy, this represents a genuine reason for optimism. The science is still evolving, and outcomes vary between individuals, but neuromodulation is increasingly recognised as an important and practical tool in modern rehabilitation. Our role is to help you understand what the evidence shows and how these approaches might apply to your situation.
About the featured products
The products featured on this website are the ones we work with at Anatomical Concepts. Naturally, these are the products we know best, and we believe they offer particular advantages for the people we work with. Stim2Go, designed by SensorStim Neurotechnology and manufactured by Pajunk in Germany, delivers transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation. The tVNS system, developed by tVNS Technologies in Germany, provides transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation. Both are regulated medical devices, CE marked for use in Europe and the UK.
