Interventional Pain Therapy
Our interventional pain therapy combines medication and minimally invasive procedures to treat chronic pain conditions. Using fluoroscopy guidance, we target specific nerve pathways and spinal structures to provide lasting relief. This approach helps patients reduce dependence on oral medications while improving functional capacity and quality of life.
Radiofrequency Ablation
Radiofrequency ablation uses heat energy to disrupt pain signals from affected nerves. This minimally invasive procedure targets facet joints in the cervical or lumbar spine, offering long-term relief for patients with chronic neck or back pain that hasn't responded to conservative treatments.
Sacroiliac Joint Fusion
Sacroiliac joint fusion stabilizes painful SI joints through minimally invasive techniques. This procedure addresses chronic lower back pain caused by joint instability or degeneration, using advanced implant systems to restore structural integrity while maintaining natural spinal motion.
Spinal Cord Stimulation
Spinal cord stimulation uses electrical impulses to interrupt pain signals before they reach the brain. This advanced therapy treats chronic neuropathic pain in the back, arms, and legs, offering adjustable pain control through implantable devices for patients with failed back surgery syndrome or complex regional pain disorders.
Epidural Steroid Injections
Epidural steroid injections deliver anti-inflammatory medication directly to inflamed spinal nerves. This targeted treatment reduces swelling and pain associated with herniated discs, spinal stenosis, and nerve compression, providing both diagnostic value and therapeutic relief for cervical and lumbar conditions.
