About S.T. Genesis

We’re proud to partner with Speranza Therapeutics in introducing the S.T. Genesis Percutaneous Nerve Field Stimulator (PNFS). The S.T. Genesis is a groundbreaking solution engineered to support patients in overcoming Opioid Use Disorder (OUD). This cutting-edge device utilizes electrical stimulation at specific auricular stimulation points to alleviate the challenging symptoms of opioid withdrawal.  

S.T. Genesis is crafted to deliver neurostimulation therapy with a focus on patient comfort and freedom of movement. The innovative device utilizes strategically positioned needles to emit electrical pulses targeting cranial nerves V, VII, IX, and X, initiating therapy that spans 120 hours. Throughout the treatment, our providers closely monitor each patient’s progress through regular assessments using the Clinical Opiate Withdrawal Scale (COWS) feedback.

Why do patients need to use S.T. Genesis?

Opioid withdrawal symptoms can be overwhelming, often pushing individuals to seek opioids to mitigate discomfort. Without proper intervention, patients may find it challenging to discontinue opioid use, leading to continued dependency. The S.T. Genesis provides a non-invasive, drug-free alternative that effectively reduces withdrawal symptoms, facilitating a smoother transition away from opioid use.  

If this resonates with you, call us today to schedule an evaluation with one of our psychiatric medical providers at Hopemark Health. 

The S.T. Genesis device was designed with the patients comfort in mind.
