Pain management is a field of medicine that focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of acute and chronic pain conditions. We identify and treat the true source of pain from physical trauma, injuries, or underlying medical conditions. Our board-certified physicians and pain specialists identify the root cause of chronic pain to help you curate a personalized treatment plan for sciatica, arthritis, headaches, and other conditions. If you’re suffering acute or chronic pain, please consult our pain management doctor in Edison for a thorough treatment plan.
Your Alternative to Opioids and Pain Medication
Interventional Pain Management
Edison Spine & Pain Management specializes in interventional pain management, which is a comprehensive approach to preventing, relieving, reducing, managing, or treating the root cause of pain. Instead of simply masking the symptoms of chronic pain, board-certified physicians and pain specialists diagnose and treat the root cause of pain, helping you lead a pain-free life without relying on opioids. We ensure you enjoy the highest standards of care to help you recover from chronic pain caused by trauma, sports injuries, and degenerative disorders.

Minimally Invasive Treatment

We don’t have to perform open surgeries in hospitals that involve extended downtime and a high risk of complications. Our minimally invasive procedures are safe, in-office treatments that conclude within an hour and involve no harsh side effects or downtime. You can resume your daily activities immediately.
We offer the following minimally invasive pain treatments:
- Nerve Blocks
- Epidural Injections
- Facet Joint Injections

No Opioids, No Surgeries
Edison Spine & Pain Management doesn’t offer opioids or steroids. The US is currently in the grips of a major opioid crisis because of the over-prescription of opioids for chronic pain instead of addressing the root cause of pain. Opioids can mask the symptoms of pain for short periods, but they don’t address the true source of pain. They can also be highly addictive. We want you to enjoy a pain-free life without relying on opioids, so we firmly avoid opioids in our pain management in Edison.
Our board-certified interventional pain specialists also avoid open surgeries for your pain conditions. We use injections and nerve blocks to prevent your nerves from transmitting pain signals and reduce inflammation. As such, we don’t need to perform complex surgical procedures that involve extended downtime and a high risk of complications. We provide conservative treatments and minimally invasive solutions to help patients return to their daily lives without pain.
The Pain Management Process
Step 1: Diagnosis & Evaluation
Your pain management journey starts with a personalized evaluation and diagnosis. The pain doctor will discuss your symptoms, review your medical history, and administer numerous imaging tests, such as X-rays, CT scans, and MRIs. We diagnose the root cause of your chronic pain to curate a personalized treatment plan.
Step 2: Conservative Care
We generally start with conservative care solutions, such as pain medications, physical therapy, and chiropractic care. We might also ask you to rest, avoid certain activities, and elevate the targeted area above your heart’s level. If you have severe pain, we may offer minimally invasive pain treatments.
Step 3: Minimally Invasive Treatments
If our conservative treatment options don’t work, we may proceed with minimally invasive treatments. Our pain doctors will select the ideal treatments based on your unique symptoms and diagnostic results. Most minimally-invasive pain treatments involve delivering local anesthetics or anti-inflammatory corticosteroids into targeted joints and nerves.
