Key Procedures We Offer

Comprehensive Pain Management Techniques

Celiac Plexus Block
Injection of local anesthetic into or around the celiac plexus of nerves that surrounds the aorta, the main artery in the abdomen. Usually these nerves control basic nerve functions. In certain conditions, these nerves can carry pain information from the gut or abdominal organ tissues back to the spinal cord and brain.

Procedure in which x-ray dye or contrast material is injected into the discs of the spine. After the x-ray dye is injected, an x-ray, called a discogram, is taken of the discs. The discogram may be normal or may show tears, fissures or other damage to the disc. The results of a discogram are used to plan treatment of the disc itself.

 Injection of long lasting steroid and occasionally some other medications into the area that surrounds the spinal cord and the nerves coming out of it. The epidural space is just inside the spinal canal and extends from the neck to the base of the tailbone.

 Injection of long lasting steroid and occasionally some other medications into the area that surrounds the spinal cord and the nerves coming out of it. The epidural space is just inside the spinal canal and extends from the neck to the base of the tailbone.

Injection of a steroid or other medication around the Intercostal Nerves to reduce the pain associated with the inflammation and/or swelling of tissue around the ribs or in the chest wall.

 Injection of long lasting steroid and occasionally some other medications into the area that surrounds the spinal cord and the nerves coming out of it. The epidural space is just inside the spinal canal and extends from the neck to the base of the tailbone.

A newly developed technique for the treatment of pain coming from a spinal disc. A special probe is inserted into the spinal disc and is used to remove a small amount of disc tissue from the disc nucleus and then to applied controlled thermal energy or heat to the disc. This causes the pressure within the disc wall to decrease and allows the disc to bulge or protrude less.

Device that stimulates the spinal cord and spinal nerves by tiny electrical impulses via a small electrical wire placed behind and just outside the spinal cord in the epidural space.
Injection of a local anesthetic in the sympathetic nerve tissue of the neck. The nerves are located on either side of the voice box, in the neck.

Injection of long acting steroid into the opening at the side of the spine where a nerve roots exits. These injections are also referred to as Root Sleeve Blocks, Root Blocks or Transforaminal Epidural Blocks.
