We treat various Pain-related Conditions
We treat patients with a wide range of pain-related conditions. Specifically, we see individuals whose pain hasn't improved within a week of starting, as some of these conditions can become chronic if not treated early (such as low back pain). We also treat patients who have already developed chronic pain, which is defined as pain lasting 12 weeks or more.
Some of the common pain conditions we treat include:
- Musculoskeletal pain
- Low back pain & sciatica from lumbar disc herniation
- Frozen shoulder & rotator cuff issues
- Neck pain & cervical radiculopathy
- Tennis elbow & golfer’s elbow
- Knee & hip joint pain
- Nerve pain
- Shingles / postherpetic neuralgia
- Trigeminal neuralgia
- Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS)

Diagnosis
The diagnosis of your pain condition begins with a comprehensive initial consultation. During this appointment, we will identify potential sources of your pain. Based on the findings, further investigations such as blood tests, imaging scans, or diagnostic injections may be recommended to pinpoint the exact cause of your discomfort and guide the most effective treatment plan.
Multidisciplinary treatment
In pain medicine, there is no one-size-fits-all solution. Depending on your condition, treatment may involve simple measures like rest and medications, or more advanced options such as physical therapy, minimally invasive procedures, or even surgery. We collaborate with other specialists and allied health professionals to ensure the best possible outcomes for your pain management and overall health
Minimally-Invasive Procedures
Minimally invasive procedures are often recommended for managing persistent pain. These treatments can help provide relief with less recovery time compared to traditional surgery. Examples include injections, Btx, nerve ablations, and spinal cord stimulator implants. Depending on the specific condition and treatment, the results can range from pain relief to potential long-term relief or even curative outcomes. Each treatment is tailored to address your individual pain needs.Interventional Pain Procedures
Interventional Pain Procedures are minimally invasive (non-surgical) treatments that help manage pain. These procedures target the source of pain, providing relief and improving quality of life. Here are some common types of interventional pain procedures:
- Epidural Steroid Injections: Help reduce inflammation around nerves, relieving pain in the back, neck, and limbs.
- Nucleoplasty: Reduces pressure inside spinal discs and relieves nerve compression, often used for disc-related pain.
- Barbotage: Removes calcium deposits in tendons, which can reduce pain from conditions like tendonitis.
- Nerve Ablation: Involves numbing or destroying specific nerves to stop pain signals from reaching the brain.
- BTX Injections: Help relax muscles and reduce the release of pain-causing neuropeptides, offering relief for muscle-related pain.
- Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) Injections: Use the body's own platelets to promote tissue healing and regeneration, speeding up recovery.
These non-surgical pain treatments can provide significant relief for many conditions, allowing patients to return to their daily activities with less discomfort. If you're struggling with chronic pain, these options may help improve your quality of life.
