Welcome message
Dear Colleagues,
The Swiss Society for Interventional Pain Management and the Swiss Neuromodulation
Society organize this year again their annual joint meeting. The Neuromodulation Society of
UK and Ireland (NSUKI) will join us. The scientific programme, parallel sessions, refresh
courses and workshops will be organized by the scientific committee (SSIPM, SNS, NSUKI).
For the first time, a session with free oral presentations will take place, giving opportunity to
young investigators to present their clinical and/or basic science studies.
We hope to see you all in Montreux in November.

About Montreux
Montreux is located between lake and mountains, called the Swiss Riviera. Montreux enjoys a

Geneva and at the foot of the Alps.
There are always something happening on the Swiss Riviera, whether it be the international
events punctuating the year: the Jazz Festival in July, the Septembre Musical in September,
the Festival du Rire and the Christmas Market in winter.
The fascinating landscape of the Swiss Riviera makes your stay unforgettable. The beautiful
terraced vineards of Lavaux, diving into the crystal blue waters of Lake Geneva, offering a
breathtaking view which leaves nobody untouched, are part of the UNESCO world heritage.
Montreux is an ideal place for meetings and starting point for excursions in Western
Switzerland.
