Interventional Procedures

 We recognize that no interventional treatment currently available for pain can be a fix or a cure by itself, so we always approach procedures judiciously, while also incorporating other rehabilitative and self-management approaches. However, in many cases these procedures can provide a “bridge” to allow for the following benefits:

• better sleep/rest/recovery
• “mental rest” and psychological recovery
• reduction of reliance on medications
• facilitation of physical rehabilitation and exercise
• simply living one’s life while we work to aid recovery

The following procedures are provided, with the use of fluoroscopic X-ray guidance where appropriate. Note that this list may not be exhaustive, and is subject to change. For questions, please contact us, and if you are interested in a procedure we do not provide, we can often offer alternatives, and/or give referrals to trusted colleagues that do.
