Is Your Current Pain Management Costing You Your
Life?
Traditional oral opioids flood your entire body with medication just to reach one painful area. This “shotgun approach” often leads to diminishing returns and increasing side effects.
Systemic Toxicity
Oral meds travel through your bloodstream, affecting your liver, kidneys, and gut, often causing constipation and nausea.
Mental Fog
High doses required for pain relief often lead to drowsiness, confusion, and an inability to focus on work or family.
Tolerance Build-up
Over time, oral medications become less effective, requiring higher doses for the same relief, increasing risk.
The Innovation
Targeted Drug Delivery (TDD)
Imagine bypassing the digestive system entirely. TDD uses a small, programmable pump implanted under the skin to deliver medication directly to the intrathecal space (the fluid surrounding your spinal cord).
Precision Dosing
Medication goes exactly where pain signals travel, requiring 1/100 to 1/300 the oral dose.
Reduced Side Effects
By avoiding the bloodstream, cognitive and digestive side effects are dramatically minimized.
Programmable Control
The pump is programmed by Dr. Kalia to match your lifestyle needs.
The Savya Integrated Model
Most clinics only do the management. Others only do the surgery.
At Savya Neuroscience, we do it all under one roof.
1. Evaluation
Comprehensive assessment by our pain specialists to see if you qualify.
2. The Trial
A temporary, low-risk trial to prove the pain relief works before you commit.
3. Implantation
Surgical placement performed right here by our expert spine surgeons.
4. Management
Ongoing refills, adjustments, and care from the same team that knows your history.
“No referrals. No waiting for outside surgeons. One team, one plan.”
“After years of taking handfuls of pills every day, the TDD pump from Dr. Kalia gave me my life back. The best part? No more crippling fatigue. The whole process at Savya was seamless.”
