Spinal Interventions

Northwest Indiana Spinal Intervention Specialists

When chronic pain from a back or neck condition continually disrupts your life, finding an effective, non-surgical solution becomes a top priority. Spinal interventions are advanced, minimally invasive procedures designed to diagnose and treat various kinds of pain directly at its source. For those living with persistent discomfort in Northwest Indiana and the Chicago suburbs, these treatments can offer significant relief and a path back to an active life. Pain Control Associates, LLC is dedicated to providing these targeted therapies to help you manage your pain and regain control in your life.

Conditions Treated with Spinal Interventions

Spinal interventions are highly effective for a wide range of conditions that cause back and neck pain. These targeted procedures have the potential to provide significant relief when other conservative treatments have been unsuccessful. Our specialists can use spinal interventions to address pain stemming from many sources, including:

  • Herniated Discs
  • Spinal Stenosis
  • Sciatica (Radiculopathy)
  • Facet Joint Pain
  • Degenerative Disc Disease
  • Failed Back or Neck Surgery

Spinal Intervention Procedures We Provide

At Pain Control Associates, LLC, we offer a comprehensive suite of advanced spinal interventions to help treat your pain accurately and effectively. After a thorough diagnosis, our specialists will determine the most appropriate procedure to target your specific pain source. We are committed to an individualized approach, ensuring you receive the most beneficial treatment for your particular condition.

Our advanced spinal intervention procedures include:

  • Epidural Steroid Injections: A common and effective treatment that delivers anti-inflammatory medication directly to the source of pain around the spinal nerves.
  • Facet Joint Injections: An injection that both diagnoses and treats pain originating from the facet joints of the spine.
  • Sacroiliac Joint Injections: Injections for diagnosing and treating pain in the lower back, targeting the joint where the spine meets the pelvis.
  • Radiofrequency Facet Ablation: A procedure that uses heat generated by radio waves to stop specific nerves from sending pain signals.
  • Nerve Blocks (Occipital, Stellate Ganglion, Lumbar Sympathetic): Injections that interrupt nerve signals to provide pain relief and help diagnose the source of pain.
  • Discography: A diagnostic procedure that helps determine if a specific spinal disc is the cause of your pain.
  • IDET (Intradiscal Electrothermal Therapy): A minimally invasive treatment for disc-related low back pain that uses heat to modify the disc wall.
  • Racz Catheter Lysis of Adhesions: A procedure to break up scar tissue in the epidural space that can cause chronic pain after back surgery.
  • Trigger Point Injections: A treatment to relieve pain in tight knots of muscle that can cause pain in other parts of the body.
