Non-Surgical and Interventional Treatment Options
To treat pain, conservative, non-surgical options such as physical therapy and medications are always discussed. For some, back and neck pain can be healed at home using straightforward treatments and by adjusting behaviors and biomechanics. Should you need it, interventional treatments including spine injections, nerve blocks, and other minimally-invasive procedures may be utilized.
- Epidural Steroid Injections
- Facet and Joint Injections
- Nerve Blocks and Medial Branch Blocks
- Radiofrequency Ablations
- Neuromodulations, including Spinal Cord Stimulators
- Infusion/Intrathecal Pumps
- Medications
- Physical and Occupational Therapy
- Behavioral Medicine Techniques and Pain Psychology
- Osteopathic Manipulative Medicine
- Activity Modification and Exercise
