Sacral Nerve Stimulation for Fecal Incontinence

Sacral nerve stimulation uses a small implantable device placed under the skin in the upper buttock to gently stimulate the sacral nerves, which play a key role in bowel control. By improving communication between the brain and the nerves that regulate bowel function, InterStim® therapy can reduce episodes of fecal incontinence and improve daily confidence. Insertion of the device is minimally invasive, adjustable, and reversible, with many patients reporting meaningful, long‑term symptom relief. This advanced therapy is an excellent option for patients who have not improved with conservative treatments. InterStim® technology has been trusted for decades and offers a proven, reliable approach to sacral nerve stimulation for patients seeking modern, effective care.
