- Rhizotomy
-
Thermal
coagulation of a nerve to make the nerve nonfunctional. More
Info.
- Facet Joint Rhizotomy
-
-
use of high frequency electrical current to produce heat next to the
facet joint nerve of the spine to coagulate the nerve so that it would
become nonfunctional and non-conducting thus making the facet joint no painful. More
Info.
- Lumbar Facet Joint Nerve Blocks
-
Injection
of the nerves intervening the lumbar facet joints to make them
insensitive to pain. More
Info.
- Spinal Endoscopy
-
Placement
of a small spinal scope into the spine to view the epidural structures
and break scar and adhesions in this space. More
Info.
- Percutaneous Spinal Nerve Root Release
-
–
electrical stimulation of the nerves which are outside of the spinal
cord to reduce pain produced from previous scarring or damage. More
Info.
- Spinal Stimulation
-
Use
of electrical stimulation of the spinal cord and its nerve roots via
insulated probes and determining specific nerves or structures causing
the pain. More
Info.
- Spinal Column Stimulation
-
–
electrical
stimulation of the spinal cord is done by placement of leads into the
epidural space to reduce pain of spinal origin from previous injury to
the spinal cord or its nerves from previous trauma, scarring, or
previous surgeries of the spine. More
Info.
- Intrathecal Infusion Pumps
-
–
use other pump which can be programmable to infuse narcotics and pain
relieving medications directly into the fluid surrounding the spinal
cord or the epidural space. More
Info.
- Peripheral Nerve
Stimulation
-
–
electrical stimulation of the nerves which are outside of the spinal
cord to reduce pain produced from previous scarring or damage.
More
Info.
- New Techniques Only at ACPSC
-
–
new techniques that are developed by our physicians which are employed
only at the Acute and Chronic Pain and Spine Center which are taught
to all other spine specialists in treating their patients.
Generally techniques developed by all physicians are generally
reported in major medical journals for the teaching of all physicians
involved in care of patients. More
Info.
- Manipulation Under Anesthesia
-
–
physical manipulation of the cervical, thoracic and lumbar regions of
the spine and limbs are carried out under regional, deep intravenous
sedation or general anesthesia to break up adhesions and increased
range of motion of the area of the spine involved. More
Info.
- Physical
Medicine & Rehabilitation
-
–
structured and program range of motion exercises, strength, work
hardening and post-operative rehabilitation programs that are used to
increase range of motion, and strength training of the musculoskeletal
system including the spine to improve function and mobility. More Info.
- Nutrition Counseling
-
–
our professional recommendation in sound nutrition and concepts for
weight loss, improvement of prostaglandin metabolism, and general
improvement of systemic diseases by use of better combination of foods
and supplements. More
Info.
- Exercise Training & Counseling
-
-
individual counseling and exercise program designed to help maintain
good health; therefore, enhancing body metabolism and aligning,
increasing range of motion, and strengthening of the cervical,
thoracic and lumbar areas of the spine. More
Info.
- Research & Development
-
–
ongoing investigation and use of new techniques at the Acute and
Chronic Pain and Spine Center for improvement of spinal diseases.
