摘要: Methods and devices for the treatment of chronic pain by modulation cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway. In particular, methods systems described herein may be used to enhance therapies such as spinal cord stimulation (SCS). Thus, present invention describes cytokine pathway neuronal (NCAP) SCS. The use NCAP in conjunction with SCS potentiate effects and/or prevent desensitization patient
