Comprehensive Approach to Pain Relief
Our Interventional Pain Management team, led by Dr. Ron Chatterjee, combines advanced medical techniques with compassionate care to treat a wide range of pain conditions. We utilize a multidisciplinary approach, ensuring that each patient receives a personalized treatment plan tailored to their specific needs.

Conditions We Treat
We provide expert care for various chronic pain conditions, including:
• Back and Neck Pain
• Sciatica
• Herniated Discs
• Spinal Stenosis
• Arthritis
• Joint Pain
• Neuropathy
• Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS)
• Migraines and Chronic Headaches

Innovative Treatment Options
At Joseph Spine Institute, we offer cutting-edge interventional procedures to effectively manage and alleviate pain. Our services include:

Electromyography and Nerve Conduction Studies: Electromyography (EMG) and Nerve Conduction Studies (NCS) are diagnostic tests used to assess the health of muscles and the nerve cells that control them. These tests help diagnose conditions such as neuropathy, nerve compression, and muscle disorders by measuring the electrical activity of muscles and the speed of nerve signals.

Epidural Steroid Injections: Epidural steroid injections are a minimally invasive procedure that involves delivering corticosteroids directly into the epidural space around the spinal cord to reduce inflammation and alleviate pain caused by conditions such as herniated discs, spinal stenosis, or sciatica. This treatment provides significant pain relief, improving mobility and overall quality of life.

Medial Branch Block Injections: Medial branch block injections involve delivering an anesthetic near the medial branch nerves that supply the facet joints in the spine, effectively blocking pain signals from reaching the brain. This diagnostic and therapeutic procedure helps identify the source of chronic back pain and provides significant relief, improving the patient's ability to function and enjoy daily activities.

Radiofrequency Ablation: Radiofrequency ablation is a minimally invasive procedure that uses heat generated by radio waves to destroy nerve fibers responsible for transmitting pain signals, providing long-lasting relief from chronic pain in areas such as the neck, back, and joints. This treatment is particularly effective for patients who have not responded to other pain management therapies.

Spinal Cord Stimulation: Spinal cord stimulation involves implanting a small device that sends electrical pulses to the spinal cord, disrupting pain signals before they reach the brain. This treatment provides significant pain relief for patients with chronic pain conditions, improving their quality of life and reducing reliance on pain medications.

Lumbar Facet Joint Injections: Lumbar facet joint injections are a minimally invasive procedure used to relieve chronic lower back pain by delivering an anti-inflammatory medication directly into the facet joints of the spine. This targeted treatment helps reduce inflammation and provides significant pain relief, improving mobility and quality of life.

Electromyography and Nerve Conduction Studies: Electromyography (EMG) and Nerve Conduction Studies (NCS) are diagnostic tests used to assess the health of muscles and the nerve cells that control them. These tests help diagnose conditions such as neuropathy, nerve compression, and muscle disorders by measuring the electrical activity of muscles and the speed of nerve signals.

Piriformis Muscle Injections: Piriformis muscle injections involve delivering an anesthetic and/or corticosteroid directly into the piriformis muscle to reduce inflammation and alleviate pain caused by piriformis syndrome. This treatment helps relieve sciatic nerve compression, improving mobility and reducing discomfort in the buttocks and lower back.
Lumbar Discogram Procedure:
A lumbar discogram is a diagnostic procedure that involves injecting contrast dye into the intervertebral discs of the lower spine to identify the source of back pain. T

Spinal Cord Stimulator Trial Procedures: A spinal cord stimulator (SCS) trial is a procedure that involves placing thin wires, called leads, near the spine and connecting them to an external device that sends electrical pulses to nerves in the spine. T
Sympathetic Blocks: Sympathetic block injections, also called sympathetic nerve blocks, are injections of medications (for example, steroids) around sympathetic nerve roots along the spine to provide temporary relief from chronic pain.

Sacroiliac Joint Injection: A sacroiliac joint injection (SIJI) is a procedure that involves injecting a combination of local anesthetic and steroid medication into the sacroiliac (SI) joint to treat or diagnose lower back pain:
