For too long, there has been a lack of understanding in regards to chronic pain, which has led to poor treatments and even worse outcomes. Treating chronic and acute pain for more than two decades, our South Florida pain relief experts utilize the most advanced techniques so you don’t have to live with pain one day longer than necessary. We are focused on diagnosing the source of the problem, creating a treatment plan, attempting to eliminate the pain, and selectively utilizing medication, when necessary.
Procedures are performed under fluoroscopy, an imaging technique that uses X-rays to obtain real-time images of the internal structures of a patient through the use of a fluoroscope.
As your South Florida pain relief experts, we specialize in treating a host of conditions using procedures that can give you a brand new lease on life including:
COOLIEF, also known as cooled radiofrequency is a minimally invasive, outpatient treatment that uses radiofrequency energy to heat the nerves and tissue to treat pain. Cooled radiofrequency can be used to treat the back, neck, sacroiliac joint in the spine as well as the hips and knees.
Learn MoreDisc Decompression using a minimally invasive treatment for patients suffering from low back and leg pain due to contained disc herniations.
Learn MoreAn 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 MoreA facet joint injection is an injection given to decrease pain and inflammation and to confirm a specific diagnosis.
Learn MoreAn 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 MoreThe MILD procedure is a minimally invasive procedure that is effective for some causes of spinal stenosis or narrowing of the spinal canal.
Learn MoreA 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) is a minimally invasive procedure treating dysplastic (precancerous) Barrett’s esophagus.
Learn MoreA 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 MoreA 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 MoreSpinal cord stimulation is a therapy that uses a small device to interfere with pain signals before they reach the brain. This pacemaker-like device—the spinal cord simulator or SCS—is implanted in the body and sends electrical pulses to the spinal cord.
Learn MoreA 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.
Learn MoreA trigger point injection is an outpatient procedure used to relieve pain by treating areas of muscle that contain trigger points (contracted knots of muscle that form when the muscles do not relax). Often these knots can be felt under the skin.
