Botox for Chronic Migraines
Boxtox (Onabotulinumtoxi-A), although most commonly known for its cosmetic applications, is an effective injection therapy for chronic migraines.
Learn MoreOur Program
Through a proper diagnostic evaluation and multi-modality treatment planning, help for chronic pain patients can be obtained. Our program uses a multidisciplinary approach to help patients reduce and learn to cope with their pain. The pain program consists of physicians, nurses, medical assistants and ancillary staff who are trained pain management professionals and deal with acute and chronic pain routinely. Following a comprehensive evaluation, this team develops a treatment plan and sets personal goals that address each individual’s pain problem. Once this is complete, a member of the treatment team meets with the patient to review the treatment plan and start the road to recovery. (The physician performs non-invasive and/or interventional treatment techniques as needed.)

- As well as the treatments listed below:
Epidural Steroid Injection
An epidural steroid injection treats nerve irritation caused by nearby tissues pressing on the nerve. The inflamed nerve root is bathed in steroids, an anti-inflammation medicine, to decrease the irritation of the nerve root that is causing the pain.
Learn MoreFacet Joint Injections
A facet joint injection is an injection given to decrease pain and inflammation and to confirm a specific diagnosis.
Learn MoreIntrathecal Pumps – Trial and Implant
An intrathecal pump is used to relieve chronic pain. The pump, placed under the skin of the abdomen, delivers a targeted dose of pain medication into the spinal cord blocking pain signals from being perceived by the brain.
Learn MoreKyphoplasty
Kyphoplasty is a minimally invasive procedure used for compression fractures in the vertebrae (the small bones that make up the spinal column), usually caused by osteoporosis.
Learn MoreOccipital Nerve Block
An occipital nerve block is done when there is inflammation of the occipital nerves (located in the back of the head) that is causing headaches.
Learn MorePeripheral Nerve Blocks
A peripheral nerve block is an anesthetic practice used in many surgical procedures. It is accomplished by injecting a local anesthetic near the nerve controlling sensation or movement to the area of the body requiring surgery.
Learn MoreRadiofrequency Ablation (RFA)
Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) is a minimally invasive procedure treating dysplastic (precancerous) Barrett’s esophagus.
Learn MoreSacroiliac Joint Injection
A sacroiliac (SI) joint injection is given when there is inflammation in one or both of the SI joints, which is located in the buttocks.
Learn MoreSelective Nerve Root Blocks (SNRB)
A selective nerve root block (SNRB) is the injection of a local anesthetic along a specific nerve root. This procedure is used primarily to diagnose nerve root compression.
Learn MoreSympathetic Nerve Blocks
A sympathetic nerve block is an injection of a local anesthetic into the area in which these nerves coalesce, called the Sympathetic Ganglion. This blocks these nerves so that the sympathetic nervous system can no longer mediate the pain.
