Services
Spinal Cord Stimulation
Spinal cord stimulation uses advanced neuromodulation technology to interrupt pain signals before they reach the brain. This minimally invasive treatment option delivers mild electrical impulses through strategically placed leads near the spinal column. Ideal for chronic back and limb pain that hasn't responded to other treatments, the system includes a trial period to ensure effectiveness before permanent implantation.
Epidural Injections
Epidural steroid injections combine anti-inflammatory medication with precise delivery to reduce inflammation and alleviate pain. Guided by imaging technology, these injections target specific nerve roots affected by conditions like sciatica or spinal stenosis. The procedure offers both diagnostic and therapeutic benefits while minimizing systemic medication effects.
Back Pain Treatment
Our comprehensive back pain management approach addresses both acute injuries and chronic conditions through multimodal strategies. From conservative treatments like physical therapy to advanced interventional procedures, we develop customized plans targeting the root cause of pain while preserving spinal function and mobility.
CRPS Management
Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) requires specialized, multidisciplinary care that combines interventional techniques with rehabilitation. Our approach includes sympathetic nerve blocks, spinal cord stimulation, and physical therapy to address the unique challenges of this chronic pain condition while improving patients' quality of life.
Auto Accident Recovery
Post-accident pain management addresses hidden spinal injuries and soft tissue damage through comprehensive evaluation and targeted treatments. Our protocols combine diagnostic imaging with interventional pain techniques to resolve symptoms from whiplash, disc injuries, and nerve compression while facilitating complete recovery.
