Our Expertise
SPINE PAIN
The lifetime prevalence of neck and low back pain is very high. The good news is that for most patients, the pain goes away after a short period of rest. However, if the pain is not going away after a while, we recommend making an appointment to see us.
MSK PAIN (Musculoskeletal)
Conditions like frozen shoulder, rotator cuff problems and elbow pain can often be treated successfully without surgery. At our clinic, we help provide an accurate diagnosis and a wide range of non-surgical treatments.
HEADACHES AND FACIAL PAIN
We offer a range of services for headaches and facial pain, frequently seeing patients with migraines and trigeminal neuralgia. Our advanced treatments include nerve blocks and radiofrequency ablation.
We specialize in the non-surgical treatment of musculoskeletal pain, headaches, facial pain, nerve pain and cancer pain. We offer interventional pain treatments for patients who have inadequate pain relief from medications and are seeking to avoid surgery.
Interventional Pain Procedures
Interventional pain procedures are non-surgical treatments designed to target pain right at its source. These advanced, minimally invasive options help patients manage chronic pain without major surgery.
Â
Common examples include:
-
Epidural Steroid Injections: Relieves pain by reducing swelling and inflammation around the spinal nerves.
-
Nucleoplasty: Gently relieves pressure on pinched nerves caused by bulging discs.
-
Annuloplasty: Targets and soothes chronic pain originating deep within the spinal discs.
-
Joint & Tendon Injections: Calms severe inflammation directly inside painful joints and surrounding tissues.
-
Barbotage: Dislodges and washes away painful calcium build-ups in the tendons.
-
Nerve Ablation: Safely blocks pain signals from traveling along the nerve to the brain.
-
BTX Injections: Relaxes tight, spasming muscles and blocks local pain triggers.
-
Regenerative Injections: Uses natural healing factors to stimulate tissue repair and speed up recovery.
