Stimpod NMS460 therapy is an advanced form of precision nerve treatment that accelerates recovery by relieving pain and promoting the body’s natural healing response. Using pulsed radio-frequency (PRF) stimulation, it helps normalise nerve function, decrease pain sensitivity, and enhance overall recovery.
Unlike treatments that only mask symptoms, Stimpod therapy targets the source of the problem — resetting overactive or irritated nerves so they can heal naturally. It’s completely non-invasive, drug-free, and highly effective for both recent injuries and long-standing pain conditions.
Stimpod therapy can benefit a wide range of conditions where nerve irritation or sensitivity limits movement or causes pain, including:
Whether your symptoms are new or have been troubling you for years, Stimpod therapy can help restore comfort, confidence, and control of movement.
The Stimpod NMS460 delivers a precisely controlled electrical pulse that gently stimulates the affected nerve. This helps:
The treatment feels like a mild tapping or pulsing sensation and is comfortable for most people. Each session is tailored to your condition and can be integrated into your physiotherapy plan to maximise results.
If you experience any of the following, Stimpod therapy may help:
These symptoms often signal nerve irritation — and Stimpod can help calm and re-educate those pathways to restore normal sensation and movement.
Supporting Recovery, Relaxation, and Whole-Body Balance.
In addition to treating local nerve pain, Stimpod therapy can be used to gently stimulate the vagus nerve — one of the body’s main communication pathways between the brain and internal organs. The vagus nerve helps regulate vital functions such as heart rate, breathing, digestion, and the body’s response to stress.
When this system becomes imbalanced — often due to pain, injury, or chronic stress — it can contribute to ongoing muscle tension, poor sleep, inflammation, and slower recovery. Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) using the Stimpod helps restore calm to the nervous system, supporting both physical healing and overall wellbeing.
Benefits of Vagus Nerve Stimulation May Include:
Vagus nerve stimulation with the Stimpod is non-invasive, comfortable, and safe. It’s often used alongside physiotherapy to help patients who are struggling with chronic pain, stress-related tension, or slower healing after injury.
By helping to rebalance the nervous system, VNS can make your body more responsive to treatment — improving not only how you feel, but how effectively you recover.
At Ed Voss Physio, Stimpod therapy is not used in isolation. It’s combined with expert physiotherapy, rehabilitation, and strength training to deliver meaningful, lasting results.
Benefits include:
Our approach ensures you not only feel better, but move and function better too — giving you confidence to return to the activities you love.
Ongoing self-care plays a vital role in maintaining the benefits of treatment. Alongside Stimpod therapy, we’ll guide you on:
This holistic approach helps prevent future flare-ups and keeps you moving well for the long term.
If nerve-related pain, tingling, or weakness is limiting your quality of life — and other treatments haven’t provided lasting relief — Stimpod therapy could be the missing piece.

Stimpod Therapy is a gentle, non-invasive treatment that uses advanced pulsed radio frequency (PRF) technology to help reset and restore normal nerve function. It supports the body’s natural ability to heal by improving communication between nerves, reducing pain sensitivity, and calming inflammation. It’s used to treat both acute and long-term nerve pain, neuropathy, and can also be applied for vagus nerve stimulation to support overall nervous system balance and recovery.
The Stimpod delivers a precise pulsed electrical signal to the affected nerve. This helps to reduce nerve irritation, improve conductivity, and restore healthy function. By promoting neuroplasticity — the nervous system’s ability to adapt and heal — it offers long-term relief rather than simply masking pain.
No — Stimpod Therapy is completely non-invasive and pain-free. You may feel a light pulsing sensation or small muscle twitch during treatment, but most people find it very comfortable. Many patients notice a reduction in pain during or shortly after their first session.
This depends on your condition and how your body responds. Some people experience significant relief within a few sessions, while others with longer-standing nerve pain may need a structured plan over several weeks. Your treatment programme will be tailored to you and may include physiotherapy and rehabilitation exercises to maximise long-term results.
Yes — Stimpod Therapy is safe, drug-free, and has no known side effects. It’s widely used to manage pain, support nerve recovery, and reduce inflammation. However, it’s not suitable for anyone with a pacemaker or certain heart rhythm conditions. Your physiotherapist will discuss your suitability before starting treatment.
Yes. Stimpod Therapy is particularly effective for nerve-related pain such as sciatica. By targeting the irritated sciatic nerve, it can ease pain, reduce sensitivity, and improve movement — often providing longer-lasting relief than traditional pain treatments.
While TENS therapy temporarily blocks pain signals, Stimpod Therapy works at a deeper level to restore normal nerve function. It helps the nerve itself heal and re-establish healthy communication pathways, offering more sustainable relief and improved long-term outcomes.
