Pain Management Procedures

At Spinal Diagnostics, we understand how chronic pain can impact your daily life. Our pain management procedures aim to provide relief and restore your mobility without the need for tissue disruption or long recovery periods.

Whether you're dealing with back or neck pain, arthritis or any kind of neuropathy-related conditions pain, or peripheral neuropathy, our experienced team is here to help. Our multidisciplinary approach to these conditions helps us create tailored treatment plans for each individual case.

Radiofrequency Neuroablation

Radiofrequency neuroablation (RFA) is a minimally invasive intervention used to relieve pain by blocking the signal production of specific nerves. This procedure uses the heat produced by radiofrequency waves to target nerves and disrupt the signal transmission into the brain.

For patients with back and neck issues, radiofrequency neuroablation helps reduce the symptoms generated by conditions with prolonged symptoms, such as chronic lower back pain, complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS), sacroiliac joint pain, and peripheral neuropathy.

Compared to traditional surgery, radiofrequency neuroablation provides a less invasive treatment option with long-lasting results. It is an outpatient procedure allowing you to return to your regular activities within a matter of days with restored mobility and better quality of life.

Nerve Root Blocks

Nerve root blocks are a pain management procedure that aims to reduce chronic pain caused by the irritation or swelling of the nerve roots in the spine. This procedure involves the injection of medication into the specific nerve root responsible for lumbar pain. By targeting the source of pain, nerve root blocks reduce pain and stiffness and contribute to overall well-being.

Nerve irritation or inflammation can lead to debilitating pain that could potentially impact your day-to-day activities. This can be caused due to numerous conditions, including herniated discs, spinal stenosis, and sciatica.

Nerve root blocks aim to block pain signals and provide long-lasting relief from the symptoms of these conditions.

Facet Joint Injections

Facet joint injections are a pain management procedure to alleviate chronic back and neck pain. These injections target the facet joints causing pain due to degeneration, wear down, or trauma.

Chronic pain can significantly impact your quality of life by reducing your mobility, altering your sleep, and hindering your ability to perform daily activities.

Facet joint injections offer multiple benefits compared to regular surgical procedures, including a significant reduction in pain during the procedure, correlated risks, and recovery time.

Pulsed Radiofrequency

Pulsed radiofrequency (PRF) is a pain management procedure aiming to alleviate chronic pain using electrical currents that modify nerve activity. It aims to disrupt the transmission of pain signals without causing significant tissue damage. By modulating nerve activity, PRF can relieve various types of chronic pain, including neuropathic pain, back pain, and joint pain.

Compared to other invasive treatments, pulsed radiofrequency offers long-term pain management solutions without the need for opioid-based anesthesia or long recovery periods.
