What Is Chronic Spine & Pain?

Chronic pain can come from many conditions affecting the spine, nerves, and joints. For some, pain becomes a daily struggle that interferes with work, family life, sleep, and overall quality of life.

Common conditions we treat include:

  • Herniated or bulging discs
  • Spinal arthritis and facet joint disease
  • Sciatica (nerve compression causing leg pain)
  • Spinal compression fractures
  • Neuropathy and nerve-related pain
  • Chronic back, neck, or joint pain

Why Treat Pain Early?

Unmanaged pain doesn’t just affect the body — it limits mobility, impacts mood, reduces independence, and can worsen over time. While pain medications may help temporarily, they often bring side effects or diminishing results.

Minimally invasive treatments offer:

  • Relief from pain at the source
  • Better mobility and daily function
  • The ability to avoid or delay invasive surgery
  • Reduced reliance on long-term medications

Advanced Treatments We Offer

  • Epidural Steroid Injections – Reduce inflammation and relieve nerve compression pain from disc issues or spinal stenosis.
  • Facet Joint Injections – Target arthritic joints in the spine for both diagnostic clarity and pain
  • Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) – Provides long-lasting relief by disrupting pain signals from spinal nerves.
  • Kyphoplasty / Vertebroplasty – Stabilizes spinal compression fractures to reduce pain and restore mobility.
  • Nerve Blocks – Diagnostic and therapeutic injections that relieve pain and help guide ongoing treatment.
  • Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS) – A small device that delivers mild electrical signals to the spinal cord, interrupting pain pathways and relieving neuropathy and other chronic nerve

Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS) for Neuropathy

What Is It?

A spinal cord stimulator is a small device implanted under the skin that sends electrical impulses to the spinal cord. These impulses reduce pain signals before they reach the brain, providing effective relief for chronic neuropathic pain.

Conditions SCS can help treat:

  • Peripheral neuropathy
  • Failed back surgery syndrome
  • Chronic radicular pain (sciatica)
  • Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS)
  • Persistent nerve pain not relieved by other treatments

Why patients choose SCS:

  • FDA-approved, minimally invasive treatment
  • Adjustable, customizable pain relief programs
  • Trial phase before permanent placement
  • Often reduces or eliminates the need for opioids
  • Significant improvements in quality of life

How Our Spine & Pain Treatments Work

  1. Consultation: We review your history, imaging, and prior treatments to find the best option.
  2. Procedure: Outpatient, typically under local anesthesia with light sedation.
  3. Recovery: Most procedures are quick, and patients return to activity within days.
  4. Results: Relief may begin immediately or gradually, depending on the treatment, with long-lasting benefits.

What to Expect

Before

We’ll conduct a thorough consultation and imaging review to identify the cause of your pain and create a personalized plan.

During

Procedures typically last 30–90 minutes. You’ll be comfortable with local anesthesia and mild sedation if needed.

After

  • Go home the same day
  • Resume light activity quickly (often within 1–2 days)
  • Relief may begin immediately or improve gradually
  • Ongoing follow-up ensures lasting results and treatment adjustments if needed

These treatments may be ideal if you:

  • Struggle with chronic back, neck, or nerve pain
  • Have pain that interferes with daily activity, work, or sleep
  • Have not improved with medications, physical therapy, or lifestyle changes
  • Want to avoid or delay invasive surgery
  • Are seeking relief from neuropathy or nerve pain through advanced options like spinal cord stimulation
