PAIN MANAGEMENT CARE


Pain Management Injections

Facet joint injections, epidural injections and trigger point injections are some of the most commonly prescribed pain management tools for one simple reason – they’re highly effective at delivering long-term, targeted pain relief. Receiving pain management injections have very few drawbacks and low risk for complications and they can be done quickly with little patient downtime.


The type of pain management or regenerative medicine injection you receive will be highly dependent on the source and severity of your chronic or acute pain.

Epidural Injections

Epidural injections are frequently administered to patients who are experiencing low back pain. These injections target the epidural space – the outer part of the spinal canal. An epidural injection generally consists of a combination of anesthetics, steroids and anti-inflammatory medications that relieve pain directly and reduce the inflammation that’s putting pressure on spinal nerves.

NON-INVASIVE PAIN MANAGEMENT SOLUTIONS


Ultrasound Guided Joint and Spinal Steroid Injection

Ultrasound guidance can be used for performing soft-tissue, joint, and epidural steroid injections effectively in the treatment of joint and back pain. Utilizing ultrasound technology ensures medication can be injected directly into the area where the pain is located. Blindly injecting medication is eliminated. Therefore, we can provide more effective treatment because the medication (e.g. corticosteroid), is placed exactly where it’s needed. 


The shoulder, elbow, wrist, hip, knee, and ankle joints are readily accessible with ultrasound. Additionally, the epidural steroid injection can be safely performed using ultrasound technology. Another benefit of ultrasound guided injection is that there is no exposure to radiation, that is typically associated with Fluoroscopic guidance (C-arm). 

Facet Joint Injections

Facet joint injections can be used as either a diagnostic tool or a pain management tool – or in some cases both. Each vertebra is flanked by facet joints. These small joints are an important stabilizer that enables your spine to bend and twist without injury. These cartilage-coated joints are encapsulated in fluid filled sacks that provide further lubrication for the joint movement.


Patients sometimes experience serious chronic pain when the cartilage in these joints wears away. Serious injuries, such as those suffered in car accidents, can also cause damage to these facet joints.


Facet joint injections are a highly effective way to provide pain relief to the related nerves in your neck or mid or lower spine.

Trigger Point Injections

Trigger point injections can be administered to the shoulder, back and areas around the spine but may also be used to relieve serious muscle pain in the legs, arms or neck. Trigger points are more frequently referred to as muscle knots. Most people at some point, have experienced some kind of muscle knot where the muscle causes pain because it simply can’t relax.


Patients who are experiencing chronic muscle pain or muscle knots should consider speaking with a chiropractic or their primary care physician about trigger point injections. We frequently administer these pain-relieving injections to patients referred to Atlas Spine & Rehab.

Regenerative Medicine Injections

While the anti-inflammatory benefits of many of the pain management injections we administer can help patients heal and recover from injuries, that’s often not the primary goal of those injections. Regenerative medicine treatments, such as platelet rich plasma (PRP) injections, are specifically intended to help patients heal.


PRP injections are formulated from a patients own blood so there’s no risk of donor rejection. When precisely administered, regenerative medicine treatments can kickstart the body’s natural healing abilities and help speed a patient’s recovery.
