Lifestyle-Induced Back Issues
People suffering from back pain due to lifestyle factors such as long hours of sitting, improper lifting techniques, or inadequate physical conditioning.
Post-Surgical Patients
Patients who continue to face challenges with pain or limited mobility following back surgery and who may benefit from specialized rehabilitation.
Individuals with Chronic Pain
Those experiencing persistent low back pain that lasts for three months or more, which has not responded well to initial treatment efforts or chiropractic treatment.
Epidural steroid injections
For those suffering from severe back or neck pain, epidural steroid injections can be a game-changer. This technique entails administering a corticosteroid injection into the epidural area surrounding the spinal cord. The steroid helps reduce inflammation and pain, providing relief lasting for several weeks or even months. This medical treatment is often recommended for conditions like herniated discs or spinal stenosis that result from personal injuries.
Facet block injections
Spinal facet joints can be a significant source of pain, especially after injuries like whiplash or falls. Our facet block injections involve administering a local anesthetic and sometimes a corticosteroid directly into the facet joint. This procedure can provide immediate relief by numbing the area and reducing inflammation, allowing you to engage more comfortably in physical therapy and daily activities.
Regenerative injections
One of our cutting-edge pain management treatments is regenerative injections, which utilize substances like platelet-rich plasma (PRP) or stem cells to promote natural healing. These injections aim to regenerate damaged tissues, reducing inflammation and pain. They are particularly effective for soft tissue injuries, such as ligament sprains and muscle strains, and can accelerate the healing process while minimizing the need for more invasive treatments.
Medication Management
While over-the-counter medications like ibuprofen or acetaminophen may offer temporary relief, they are often insufficient for chronic migraine management. It’s essential to use these medications judiciously to avoid medication overuse headache, which can result from frequent use of acute treatments.
Nerve Blocks for migraine headaches
Another effective treatment option we offer is nerve blocks. This procedure involves injecting a local anesthetic near specific nerves to numb the area, providing immediate relief from intense migraine headache pain. Nerve blocks are beneficial for those who experience localized, severe migraines and are looking for quick relief.
Neurotoxin injections for migraine headaches
One of the innovative treatments we offer is neurotoxin injections. These injections work by blocking neurotransmitters that trigger pain, providing relief for an extended period. Many patients report a significant reduction in the frequency and severity of their migraines after undergoing this treatment.
