Are You Suffering From Chronic, Constant Pain?

At PMIR Medical Center, our pain and spine specialists understand the nuances of chronic pain. We interview each patient to determine what caused your pain and how long it’s been bothering you and to discuss customized treatment plans that often include nerve blocks. Nerve blocks are a procedure that aims to reduce or eliminate pain by disrupting nerve activity in a specific region of the body, thereby limiting the severity of pain signals traveling through the area.

The clinic staff and doctors have made the entire process easy and comfortable for me.

Nerve block injections are an anesthetic or anti-inflammatory medicine that blocks pain signals from a specific area of the body or reduces inflammation in that area. In short, nerve blocks help relieve pain by interrupting how pain signals are sent to your brain. Injections are generally used for people with severe chronic pain, including (but not limited to):
