A celebration was held at the Pain Management Clinic at Boone Hospital Center in Columbia, MO to acknowledge the 50th anniversary of the groundbreaking work by Dr. C. Norman Shealy in the creation of Spinal Cord Stimulation Technology.

Spinal Cord Stimulation, or SCS, is a method of successful pain treatment for spinal cord injuries. First introduced by Dr. C. Norman Shealy in 1967, when Dr. Shealy implanted a neuroaugmentive device in a cancer patient to control severe chest pain. The success of the operation led to an entire industry based around the application of SCS for various spinal injuries. Considerable advances in the field have produced successful results including patients returning to work after severe injuries and returning to intensive types of manual activities.

The celebration for the 50th anniversary of the revolutionary procedure was hosted by the CEO of Boone Hospital, Jim Sinek, CMO Dr. Robin Blount and Dr. Bradford Noble, DO, FAOCPMR.

Joined by the Boone Center Hospital Pain Management staff, were three guest patients whose lives have been significantly improved through the techniques introduce by Dr. C. Norman Shealy over 50 years ago. The patients, Linda Coats, Derrick Lawson, and Joseph Toepke, were able to convey their gratitude and discuss their individual success stories with Dr. Shealy. Derrick Lawson and Joseph Toepke, two United States army veterans reported nothing but stellar results with SCS. Both sustained injuries in combat, and since have been able to regain their mobility and lead normal, productive lives.

Dr. Shealy is still actively seeing patients at his clinic, the International Institute of Holistic Medicine, in Springfield, Missouri along with President and Medical Director, Dr. Sergey Sorin, MD, DABFM.
