ignite THE HEALING
POWER WITHIN
Xstim spine fusion stimulation therapy promotes spine fusion using targeted electrical stimulation and the body's natural healing abilities.

empowered healing
with the Xstim spine fusion stimulator
At Xstim, we believe in the innate power of the human body to heal itself. However, sometimes it needs some extra help. Our flagship product, Xstim Spinal Fusion Stimulator, is a class 3, FDA-approved device whose electrical stimulation signal has been clinically proven to promote bone healing after lumbar spinal fusion surgery for one or two levels (1,4). This proven capacitive coupling technology safely and effectively triggers the body's inherent healing mechanism through the transmission of low-level electrical pulses to the fusion site (1). With an impressive clinical success rate of up to 85% after one- or two-level lumbar fusion surgery (1), Xstim spine fusion stimulation therapy has transformed the way we approach the recovery and rehabilitation process for individuals who have undergone one- or two-level lumbar spinal fusion surgery (1). By harnessing the body's innate capacity to heal itself, we aim to provide the best possible outcomes for our patients.

How xstim SPINE FUSION STIMULATOR works
The electrical stimulation signal used in Xstim Spine Fusion Stimulator has been shown to UPREGULATE multiple growth factors to aid in fusion(2)
Xstim Spine Fusion Stimulator comfort hydrogel electrodes are placed 4 to 6 inches apart adjacent to the fusion site. The Xstim Spine Fusion Stimulator device sends imperceptible low-level electrical impulses to the spine fusion site through the electrodes, creating a favorable environment for bone regeneration.
In an in vitro study, using the same electrical stimulation signal, has shown that multiple bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are upregulated throughout the bone healing phases in as little as 30 minutes of exposure, with optimal upregulation occurring through the day at 24 hours.(2)
As bone remodels over time, the new bone tissue is gradually re-shaped and strengthened by the stresses on the newly formed bone at the fusion site through movement and weight-bearing.(3)
