We offer pain management at three locations — St. Joseph, Maryville and Albany — serving patients across northwest Missouri. After a referral from your provider, a board-certified pain management physician will work with you to understand your pain and create a treatment plan tailored to your needs.
Our team offers interventional pain management, a specialized approach to diagnosing and treating chronic pain through minimally invasive procedures. Unlike traditional methods that rely solely on medication, these advanced techniques aim to address pain at its source, providing long-lasting relief and improving quality of life, especially when conservative treatments have not worked.
Our team helps patients manage a wide range of conditions, including:
- Chronic back and neck pain
- Musculoskeletal pain
- Post–herpetic neuralgia
- Degenerative arthritis
- Nerve injuries and neuropathy
- Pain after spinal cord injury
- Piriformis syndrome
- Painful diabetic neuropathy
- Failed back surgery syndrome
We use advanced, minimally invasive procedures to target pain at its source, including:
- Epidural injections (lumbar, thoracic and cervical)
- Facet and median branch blocks
- Genicular radiofrequency ablations for knee pain
- Radiofrequency ablation for sacroiliac (SI) joints, cervical and lumbar
- Selective nerve root injections
- Spinal cord stimulator trials
- Trigger point injections
- Fluoroscopy — SI joint injections
We also coordinate with community resources for counseling and other non-drug interventions such as physical therapy, TENS unit and biofeedback.
