Epidural Steroid Injections (ESI)
Epidural injections deliver anti-inflammatory medication directly into the epidural space of the spine to help reduce inflammation and pain caused by:
- Herniated or bulging discs
- Spinal stenosis (narrowing of the spinal canal)
- Sciatica or nerve pain that radiates down the arms or legs (radiculopathy)
Facet Joint Injections
These injections target the small joints in the spine (facet joints) that can become painful due to:
- Arthritis in the spine
- Degenerative disc disease
- Chronic lower back or neck pain related to wear and tear
Medial Branch Blocks
This procedure temporarily numbs the nerves that carry pain signals from the facet joints. It’s often used to:
- Identify the source of spinal pain
- Provide relief from facet joint-related pain
- Determine if you're a candidate for radiofrequency ablation (a longer-lasting treatment)
Selective Nerve Root Blocks (SNRB)
These injections are used to target a specific spinal nerve that may be pinched or irritated. They help treat:
- Nerve compression from a herniated disc or bone spur
- Radiating pain in the arms or legs (depending on the location)
- Conditions like sciatica and cervical or lumbar radiculopathy
Sacroiliac (SI) Joint Injections
The SI joints connect your spine to your pelvis. Injections in this area can help reduce pain from:
- SI joint dysfunction or instability
- Inflammation due to arthritis or injury
- Lower back pain that may radiate into the hips or thighs
