Interventional pain management differs from conventional chronic pain management because it utilizes specialized procedures and techniques to manage pain. Pain management is an umbrella term defining the overall treatment of any kind of pain, while interventional is any non-invasive and conservative treatment for pain.
At Southwest Spine and Pain Center, our physicians and staff are dedicated to helping every patient manage their pain and live happier, healthier, and fuller lives. With four locations across Utah, in Richfield, Cedar City, St. George, and Logan, Southwest Spine and Pain is the leading pain management facility in the southwest United States.
For people struggling with acute or chronic pain of varying causes, Southwest Spine and Pain Center is the solution for you. We treat a number of conditions including:
- Low back and neck pain
- CRPS
- Postsurgical pain
- Arthritis pain
- And many more
Our goal is to treat a painful condition with the most conservative methods possible. This could include injections, nerve blocks, radiofrequency ablation, medication, spinal cord stimulation, or referring patients to a physical therapist. Interventional management techniques have specific goals to reduce pain severity and length, increase physical activity, improve quality of life, and help patients sleep better.
Interventional pain management’s objective is to pinpoint the source of a patient’s pain and direct treatment to that specific area. If the source cannot be identified using conventional services, then a physician will likely target the nerves responsible through nerve blocks.
At Southwest Spine and Pain, our goal is to treat patients with non-invasive techniques. However, if these services do not provide improvements to his or her condition, then surgical intervention may be recommended. If you suffer from acute pain, recurrent pain, or chronic pain, please contact Southwest Spine and Pain Center for the best treatment and care.
