Interventional Pain Management

 

Interventional pain management specializes in treating patients who suffer from chronic pain by utilizing minimally invasive techniques to address the pain cycle. The priority for interventional medicine is to intervene on the pain cycle and block the pain from transmitting through the body by using a minimally invasive method targeting the root source of the pain. Interventional medicine is an ideal treatment for both acute and chronic pain and can be used to alleviate even the most complex sources of pain.

​

Interventional pain management specialists are capable of managing all types of pain, including chronic migraines or headaches, neck and back pain, joint pain, muscle pain, bone pain, post-operative pain, and many other types of chronic pain. Techniques to manage pain within this field can be classified as either invasive or minimally-invasive.

 

After an initial consultation to evaluate the patient’s pain levels, the physician will provide the patient with their professional opinion with regard to treatment options. Treatment plans may include the injection of epidural steroids, selective epidural and root blocks, joint and trigger point injections, sympathetic blocks, spinal cord stimulation, radiofrequency denervation and many other treatment options. Regenerative medicine such as platelet rich plasma (PRP) and neuromodulation are often utilized first rather than ablative and destructive procedures in order to allow the body to heal by natural biologic responses.

​

No two patients will experience the same levels of pain in the same areas of the body, so interventional pain management techniques will affect each patient differently. For some patients, initial epidural steroid injections may relieve pain, whereas other patients will need to undergo more invasive or additional procedures in order to achieve the desired level of pain relief. Consequently, interventional pain management specialists usually maintain a close relationship with patients, monitoring pain levels and providing additional treatments if and when necessary in an attempt at relieving pain and providing the highest quality of life possible.
