Our Procedures

Treatment Modalities

Our approach is to search and address individual �pain generators�. At times, complete pain elimination is not possible, but most patients can achieve some form of pain reduction.

Recent studies have shown that the result are better when early effective treatment is provided. Early treatment also reduces the risk of developing chronic pain.

Oral medications have to travel through the entire body, are often not effective, and may cause side effects. In interventional pain management, the medication is given by injection directly into the �pain generator� and is concentrated in one location. Consequently, injection therapy is more effective and has fewer side effects than oral medications.

We strive to find a single treatment that has maximal benefit, rather than repeating the same therapy for short term relief. In our office, local anesthesia, sedation, fluoroscopy, and x-ray are available, assuring your comfort and safety during procedures.
