epidural stimulation
Epidural stimulation is a medical technique that involves applying electrical impulses to the epidural space of the spinal cord, often in individuals with spinal cord injuries. This stimulation can help restore some movement and sensation below the injury site by reactivating neural pathways that may have been damaged. It is typically done through an implanted device, allowing patients to regain better control over their limbs and improve their quality of life. While it is not a cure for paralysis, it represents a promising approach to rehabilitation and recovery in spinal cord injury cases.
