Hello, and thank you for reaching out to Performance Pain & Sports Medicine, serving Houston and a host of other communities. You are here, either, because you or a loved one are dealing with spine issues that are contributing to neck or back pain that is minimizing quality of life. That, in turn, can lead to anxiety, mood swings, depression, the abuse of pain pills and other very unpleasant outcomes.
A spine doctor is a highly-specialized professional who treats a wide variety of neck and back pain issues. However, other specialists can offer their seasoned expertise to treat spine conditions, as well, including chiropractors, physical therapists, and acupuncturists – and all of these professionals are under one roof at Performance Pain & Sport Medicine in Houston, Texas!
Spine-Related Technology Can Replace Surgery
Are you hoping your spine condition will be able to forgo surgery? It is possible you may be able to bypass that procedure! Take some comfort in knowing that many who suffer from chronic back or neck pain require no surgery, at all!
Every year, however, tens of thousands of patients are scheduled for surgeries that are not medically justified – this, according to USA Today. If anyone tells you that you ‘must’ have surgery, let our spine doctors determine if it is, truly, necessary!
Whether your spine-related pain is due to is trauma or is congenital or degenerative in nature, our medical professionals will not only get to the root of the problem, we can address spine-related issues through a variety of tech-advanced procedures that generate transformational results. Replacing surgery with technology is real, it’s revolutionary, it’s radical, and it’s ready for you!
Tech-Advanced Relief for Spine-Related Issues
Here are a few cutting-edge methodologies our spine doctors utilize to turn painful into painless:
● Spinal Cord Stimulation – relieves chronic pain in back, arms, and legs. Electrical stimulating electrodes are introduced into the spinal canal. Pain messages are, actually, blocked before they reach the brain!
● Radio Frequency Ablation – deactivates pain associated with the back, neck, muscles, and other areas through water-cooled technology. High-frequency electrical energy is delivered through a needle inserted into the skin. The electrical energy destroys a small area of the nerve tissue, thereby, reducing pain signals from the affected area.
● Epidural Injections – relieves pain from inflamed spinal nerves due to herniated discs or spinal stenosis. Injections are x-ray guided to generate real-time images and the injections are safe and effective.
● Endoscopic Spinal Procedure – abolishes pain through a minimally-invasive procedure which removes disc herniations and frees pinched nerves.
● Superion Interspinous Spacer – treats symptoms of lumbar spinal stenosis. This procedure involves a minimally-invasive titanium implant which, effectively, allows patients to avoid major back surgery! Side note: we were the first in Texas to implant the Superion device.
