Welcome to our Patient Education

Center where you can learn more about common causes of pain and the advanced treatments we offer to help you heal and get back to the activities you love.

Neck Pain
  • 01

    What are common causes of neck pain?

    Neck pain can be caused by muscle strain, poor posture, arthritis, herniated discs, or nerve compression. Degenerative changes and injuries such as whiplash are also common sources.

  • 02

    What are common causes of neck pain?

    If neck pain lasts more than a few days, limits your range of motion, or causes numbness, tingling, or weakness in your arms or hands, it’s important to be evaluated by a specialist.

Low Back Pain
  • 01

    What causes lower back pain?

    Causes include muscle strain, herniated or bulging discs, arthritis, spinal stenosis, or degenerative disc disease. Lifestyle factors such as poor posture or weak core muscles can contribute.

  • 02

    Can low back pain improve without surgery?

    Yes. Many patients improve with conservative treatments like physical therapy, guided exercise, or injections. For chronic pain, minimally invasive procedures such as radiofrequency ablation or spinal cord stimulation may provide long-term relief..

  • 03

    When should I see a doctor?

    Seek care if your pain lasts more than two weeks, radiates down your leg, or is associated with numbness, weakness, or bladder/bowel changes.

Knee Pain
  • 01

    What are the most common causes of knee pain?

    Arthritis, meniscus tears, ligament injuries (like ACL or MCL), bursitis, and overuse injuries are common culprits.

  • 02

    How is knee pain treated?

    Depending on the cause, treatments may include physical therapy, medications, joint injections, platelet-rich plasma (PRP), or stem cell therapy. Surgery is reserved for severe or unresponsive cases.

Headaches
  • 01

    What causes headaches?

    Common causes include muscle tension, stress, migraines, dehydration, and irritation of nerves in the neck (cervicogenic headaches).

  • 02

    Can neck problems cause headaches?

    Yes. Tight muscles or nerve irritation in the upper neck can cause headaches that radiate to the back of the head or behind the eyes.

Spinal Cord Stimulator
  • 01

    What is a spinal cord stimulator?

    A spinal cord stimulator is a small implanted device that sends gentle electrical signals to the spinal cord to block pain messages from reaching the brain.

  • 02

    Who is a candidate for spinal cord stimulation?

    It’s typically recommended for patients with chronic back, leg, or arm pain that hasn’t improved with medications, therapy, or surgery.

  • 03

    What is the trial process?

    Before permanent placement, patients undergo a short trial to ensure the device provides significant pain relief.

  • 04

    Can it reduce my need for pain medication?

    Many patients are able to reduce or even stop taking pain medications after a successful stimulator implantation.

Vertiflex Procedure (Interspinous Spacer)
  • 01

    What is the Vertiflex procedure?

    Vertiflex is a minimally invasive treatment for lumbar spinal stenosis that uses a small implant to open space in the spine and relieve pressure on the nerves.

  • 02

    Who benefits from Vertiflex?

    Patients with leg or back pain that worsens while standing or walking but improves when sitting or bending forward often find great relief with Vertiflex

  • 03

    How long does the device last?

    The Vertiflex implant is designed to remain in place permanently and can provide lasting relief for years.

Stem Cell Therapy
  • 01

    What is stem cell therapy?

    Stem cell therapy uses your body’s own regenerative cells to help repair damaged joints, tendons, ligaments, or discs naturally.

  • 02

    What conditions can stem cell therapy help with?

    It may be used for arthritis, degenerative joint disease, tendon or ligament injuries, and certain spine conditions.

  • 03

    Is stem cell therapy safe?

    Yes. Because it uses your own cells, there’s minimal risk of reaction or rejection, and it’s considered a natural alternative to surgery.
