Interventional Spine & Joint Wellness

Inter­ven­tion­al spine and joint well­ness involves tar­get­ed treat­ments to relieve pain and restore func­tion. Dr. Albert Singh is com­mit­ted to inno­v­a­tive solu­tions for pain man­age­ment. Whether you’re deal­ing with a new injury or chron­ic dis­com­fort, our spe­cial­ists can diag­nose and treat your condition. 

Many times, med­ica­tion alone isn’t enough to man­age pain effec­tive­ly. Our approach com­bines med­ica­tion with advanced pro­ce­dures for opti­mal results. In fact, for some patients, these treat­ments can sig­nif­i­cant­ly reduce or even elim­i­nate the need for pain med­ica­tion over time. 

Dis­cov­er how our inno­v­a­tive treat­ments can help you live a pain-free life. 

Pro­ce­dures:

• Injec­tion treat­ments – Local anes­thet­ics, with or with­out cor­ti­sone-like med­i­cines, can be inject­ed around nerve roots and into mus­cles or joints. These med­i­cines reduce swelling, irri­ta­tion, mus­cle spasms and abnor­mal nerve activ­i­ty that can cause pain. 

• Nerve blocks – Often a group of nerves, called a plexus or gan­glion, cause pain to a spe­cif­ic organ or body region. These nerve groups can be blocked with local anes­thet­ics. If suc­cess­ful, anoth­er solu­tion that numbs the nerves can then be injected. 

• Elec­tri­cal stim­u­la­tion – Tran­scu­ta­neous elec­tri­cal nerve stim­u­la­tion (TENS) is the most com­mon form of elec­tri­cal stim­u­la­tion used in pain man­age­ment. It is not painful and does not require nee­dles or med­i­cine. TENS con­sists of a small, bat­tery-oper­at­ed device that can dimin­ish pain by stim­u­lat­ing nerve fibers through the skin.
