Revolutionary
Foot & Ankle Joint Replacement Alternative

Relief that restores stability and movement without
the risks of major surgery.

The Drawbacks of Traditional
Foot & Ankle Replacement

For years, patients with severe foot or ankle pain have been told that joint replacement is their only option. But this path often creates new challenges:

For patients who depend on their feet for mobility and independence, these limitations can be life‑altering. Nervexa™ was developed to provide a safer, more effective alternative.

How Nervexa™
Stands Apart

Nervexa™ offers a breakthrough approach for foot and ankle pain, designed to preserve your natural anatomy while silencing pain at its source. Instead of replacing the joint, Nervexa™ focuses on restoring comfort, balance, and mobility so patients can return to walking with confidence

Nervexa™ Vs. Foot & Ankle Joint Replacement

Aspect

Total Joint Replacement

Primary Goal

Eliminate pain by calming nerves and inflammation

Replace joint with artificial hardware

Your Anatomy

preserves natural bone and tissue

Removes bone and cartilage, replaces with implant

Mobilty Impact

patients regain balance, stability, and walking ability

Walking often limited during long recovery; risk of reduced range

Recovery Time

Return to daily movement in 2-3 weeks

3-6 months before normal walking resumes

Anesthesia

Local or Twilight sedation

General anesthesia required

Hospital Stay

Outpatient relief without hardware wear

1-3 days in hospital

Long-Term Outlook

Permanent Relief without hardware wear

Implants last 10-15 years, often require revision

Candidate Restriction

Broad eligibility, even with higher BMI or A1C

Strict limits on BMI, A1C, and age

Success Rate

92%* of patients report lasting relief

75-80% success, with risk of implant failure

The Nervexa™ Approach

A different path to lasting foot and ankle relief.

Instead of cutting bone or inserting hardware, Nervexa™ focuses on the root causes of pain, calming inflammation, re‑training nerves, and protecting against flare‑ups, so patients can walk with confidence again

STEP 1: Restore Balance by Reducing Inflammation

Chronic foot and ankle pain often comes from constant irritation in the joint. Nervexa™ uses a targeted embolization technique to reduce abnormal blood flow that keeps tissues inflamed. This helps ease swelling, stiffness, and sensitivity, creating a healthier environment for movement.

STEP 2: Re‑train the Nerves That Carry Pain

The nerves around the foot and ankle act like alarm systems that never switch off. Nervexa™ carefully redirects these pain‑carrying nerves into surrounding tissue, shutting down the constant signals while preserving strength, balance, and natural motion.

STEP 3: Add a Safety Net for Long‑Term Comfort

To keep pain from returning, Nervexa™ includes an FDA‑cleared device that delivers gentle pulses to block any lingering signals. Controlled from a smartphone, it gives patients ongoing reassurance and helps protect their results for the long term.

Who Is an Ideal Candidate for Nervexa™?

Nervexa™ is designed for patients living with chronic wrist or hand pain, especially those who want to avoid the risks and downtime of major surgery.

Nervexa™ is built on years of clinical research led by Dr. Joshua Hustedt at the University of Arizona. These nerve-based techniques have been studied across multiple joints and patient populations, demonstrating consistent positive results.

"For too long, patients have been told their only options are temporary injections or a major joint replacement. I created Nervexa™ because I believe there is a better way. By combining advanced nerve science with minimally invasive techniques, we can 'silence' chronic pain at its source."

-Dr. Hustedt, Founder Nervexa™
