In one embodiment, a device is provided for partially shielding electrical energy emitted from an electrical stimulation lead implanted in a human's body to enable stimulation of the human's nerve tissue, the lead including one or more electrodes operable to stimulate the nerve tissue. The device includes an anterior concave surface adapted to contact and at least partially surround a posterior side of the lead such that the lead is positioned between the anterior concave surface and the nerve tissue when the device and the lead are implanted in the body. The device includes a posterior convex surface coupled to the anterior concave surface and adapted to contact the body tissue opposite the nerve tissue. The device is adapted to partially shield electrical energy emitted from one or more electrodes on a posterior side of the lead when the device and the lead are implanted in the body to reduce a quantity of electrical energy reaching the body tissue opposite the nerve tissue.
