- Pregnancy or planned pregnancy
- Concomitant medical conditions which would limit the success of the procedure such as: pelvic pain with uncertain etiology, active degenerative disc disease, spinal cord injury less than six months old, bleeding complications, or a cerebrovascular accident (CVA) less than six months old.
- Anatomical limitations that would prevent successful placement of an electrode
- Neurological diseases such as multiple sclerosis, clinically significant peripheral neuropathy or complete spinal cord injury (e.g., paraplegia)
