Chronic Pain Treatment
Southwest Spine Center strives to correct spinal conditions that cause chronic back and neck pain. In a very small number of patients, the damage done to the spine may be irreversible and the goal becomes keeping the pain at bay or minimizing the pain to a manageable level. Low back pain, neck pain, migraine headaches, sciatica and degenerative disc disease can typically be reversed through our customized treatment plans but on occasion, a pain management plan is devised. If you live with pain each and every day, Southwest Spine Center may be able to improve your quality of life by decreasing the pain and improving the function. The first step is to determine the cause of the pain rather then just attempting to mask it which can actually make it worse.
Southwest Spine Center will perform diagnostic testing which may include imaging to help you get to the bottom of the problem. Often stress relief techniques, nutritional advice, acupuncture, deep tissue massage, myofacial release and trigger point work in combination with other treatment allows patients to see a big change in pain patterns. For some people, relieving stress is the most effective way to reduce pain. Southwest Spine Center provides customized chronic pain treatment that gets results without drugs, injections or surgery.
