Our Board Certified Physician is experienced in many Interventional Pain Management procedures. Each patient’s care plan is carefully and individually developed to maximize their daily functioning by minimizing or eliminating their pain. Some of the treatments and services offered in this practice include:
An epidural steroid injection treats nerve irritation caused by nearby tissues pressing on the nerve. The inflamed nerve root is bathed in steroids, an anti-inflammation medicine, to decrease the irritation of the nerve root that is causing the pain.
Learn MoreA facet joint injection is an injection given to decrease pain and inflammation and to confirm a specific diagnosis.
Learn MoreA medial branch block is a procedure used to determine the cause of neck or back pain.
Learn MoreA selective nerve root block (SNRB) is the injection of a local anesthetic along a specific nerve root. This procedure is used primarily to diagnose nerve root compression.
Learn MoreSpinal cord stimulation is a therapy that uses a small device to interfere with pain signals before they reach the brain. This pacemaker-like device—the spinal cord simulator or SCS—is implanted in the body and sends electrical pulses to the spinal cord.
Learn MoreA sympathetic nerve block is an injection of a local anesthetic into the area in which these nerves coalesce, called the Sympathetic Ganglion. This blocks these nerves so that the sympathetic nervous system can no longer mediate the pain.
