Only Non-Surgical Pain Treatments
Edison Spine & Pain Management takes a conservative and minimally invasive approach to pain management. Your pain treatment usually starts with conservative physical therapy, rest, activity limitations, and pain medications. If conservative solutions don’t work, our pain doctors may recommend minimally invasive pain treatment, such as injections and nerve blocks. Minimally invasive treatments address the root cause of your pain conditions without necessitating complex open surgeries. They are safe, conclude within an hour, and involve minimal side effects and downtime.

Spinal Cord Stimulation
Spinal cord stimulation is a minimally invasive procedure that involves inserting a specialized medical device into the spinal cord. The electrodes of the spinal cord stimulator send tiny electrical pulses (on your command) to alleviate the symptoms of pain. With this form of interventional pain management in Edison you can alleviate your pain and perform your daily activities.
Rhizotomy
Rhizotomy, also known as radiofrequency ablation, is a minimally invasive procedure that involves channeling thermal energy into the inflamed nerve roots responsible for sending pain signals into the brain. Once the nerve roots are “killed” or deactivated, you don’t experience the symptoms of pain. Rhizotomy offers more permanent results than nerve blocks and facet joint injections.
Epidural Injections
Epidural injections are minimally invasive treatments that involve injecting a small quantity of anesthetics and steroids into the epidural space of the spine. This treatment reduces inflammation of the nerves that transmit pain signals into the brain, thus providing pain relief. Epidural injections address the root cause of pain, offer instant relief, and also serve a diagnostic function to aid long-term results.
Nerve Blocks
The nerve roots originating from the spinal cord facilitate communications between the brain and different parts of the body. Nerve blocks are minimally invasive treatments that involve injecting numbing medicines and anti-inflammatory corticosteroids into the nerve roots responsible for sending pain signals into the brain. As such, these treatments alleviate the source of pain.
Trigger Point Injections
Trigger point injections are minimally invasive procedures that involve injecting numbing medicines and steroids into the trigger points, i.e., the regions with dense and tight muscle knots that can’t relax. Trigger point injections reduce muscle inflammation and help the contracted muscles relax, thereby alleviating muscle pains, tension headaches, and the symptoms of fibromyalgia.
