A targeted injection of anti-inflammatory medication directly into the epidural space around spinal nerves to reduce swelling and relieve pressure. Performed under fluoroscopy, the physician numbs the site first — the procedure takes about 15 minutes with little to no discomfort. Most patients return to light activity the same day, with relief beginning within a few days and lasting weeks to several months.

A diagnostic injection used to identify pain originating from small facet joints by anesthetizing the medial branch nerves that transmit those pain signals. Performed under fluoroscopy, it takes about 15 minutes with minimal discomfort. If pain significantly decreases, it confirms the source and may indicate radiofrequency ablation (RFA) as a longer-term option. Effects are temporary but guide your physician toward the right next steps.

The Sacroiliac (SI) joints connect the spine to the pelvis. When inflamed due to injury, arthritis, or abnormal movement, they can cause significant lower back and leg pain. SI Joint Injections combine a local anesthetic and corticosteroid to reduce inflammation and provide relief. Most patients return to light activity the same day, with relief beginning within a few days and lasting weeks to several months.

Facet joints stabilize the vertebrae of the spine, but can become inflamed due to injury, arthritis, or degeneration. These injections deliver a corticosteroid and local anesthetic directly into the affected joint to reduce inflammation and block pain signals. Performed under fluoroscopy, the procedure takes about 15 minutes with mild discomfort. Most patients return to light activity the same day, with relief lasting weeks to several months.

An injection of anesthetic (and sometimes a steroid) around a specific nerve or group of nerves to block pain signals from reaching the brain — providing both diagnostic insight and therapeutic relief. Useful for spine-related conditions, joint pain, or nerve irritation unresponsive to medication. The procedure takes 10–15 minutes under fluoroscopy. Most patients return to normal activity within 24 hours, with relief felt within minutes to a few days.

Trigger point injections relieve muscle pain caused by tight knots of muscle fibers (trigger points) resulting from overuse, injury, or stress. A small amount of anesthetic is injected directly into the trigger point to relax the muscle and relieve pain. The procedure takes under 10 minutes; patients may feel a brief twitch as tension releases. Most resume normal activity the same day, with relief lasting from several days to a few months.

Targeted injections to relieve pain and inflammation in joints affected by arthritis, injury, or degeneration — using corticosteroids to reduce inflammation or hyaluronic acid (HA) to lubricate and cushion the joint. Commonly recommended for osteoarthritis of the knees or elbow. The procedure takes 10–15 minutes with little discomfort. Most patients resume normal activity within 24 hours, with relief lasting weeks to months (or up to six months with HA injections).
