Back & Lumbar Pain
Comprehensive care for back & lumbar pain.
Four out of five (80%) of American adults experience back pain sometime during their lives. That adds up to millions of Americans who suffer from chronic back pain and the lost mobility it causes.
Back pain is one of the most common and most costly ailments in our society. The cost of treating back problems, time lost from work, insurance, therapy and surgery runs into the billions of dollars.
Back pain can be a nuisance or it can be quite disabling.
The Pain Management Specialists at The Spine Diagnostic & Pain Treatment Center can help you beat back pain. They are fellowship-trained, double-board-certified anesthesiologists and pain management specialists dedicated to relieving pain and getting you back to your life again.
When it comes to the back and related conditions like lumbar radicular pain (also known as sciatica), the Pain Management Specialists at The Spine Diagnostic & Pain Treatment Center help patients overcome their back trouble and avoid future problems through a variety of advanced, proven therapies. Most patients are able to avoid invasive surgery and large doses of medication.
