Santiago García, neurosurgeon practicing in private hospitals in Mallorca, specialized in degenerative and traumatic spinal pathology, shares his vision on NESA technology from the perspective of neurosurgery.
His clinical approach focuses on offering therapeutic alternatives to patients who do not require surgical intervention or who need a post-surgical complement for pain treatment. He defends a multidisciplinary model where close collaboration between neurosurgeons and physiotherapists is key for optimal recovery.
His interest in NESA arises from previous knowledge of invasive neuromodulation, used for example in refractory epilepsy through implanted devices. NESA offers him exactly the same but non-invasively and with greater accessibility, which represents a significant qualitative leap for his patients.
He identifies the main applications in chronic pain, degenerative spinal pathology and post-surgical recovery, and emphasizes the importance of understanding the pathophysiological bases of pain to apply the technology with clinical criteria. His vision of the future is clear: NESA should become a basic element in rehabilitation protocols, not only in neurosurgery but also in traumatology and treatment of neurological sequelae.
