Sacroiliac (SI) joint pain treatment in Clifton, NJ
Pain low on one side of your back, deep in the buttock, or in the hip and groin — especially when standing up, climbing stairs, or rolling over in bed — often comes from the sacroiliac (SI) joint, where the base of the spine meets the pelvis. It’s a commonly missed source of “back pain,” and treating it means first confirming the SI joint is actually the culprit. At our Clifton office in Passaic County, our board-certified interventional pain physicians diagnose and treat SI joint pain for patients across northern New Jersey.
How we diagnose SI joint pain
Because SI joint pain can mimic sciatica or a disc problem, an accurate diagnosis comes first: a focused physical exam, a review of your history and imaging, and — when appropriate — a diagnostic SI joint injection. If numbing the joint clearly relieves your pain, it confirms the SI joint as the source and points to the treatments most likely to help.
SI joint treatment options at our Clifton office
- Image-guided SI joint injections to calm inflammation and confirm the pain source
- Physical therapy coordination to stabilize the pelvis and strengthen the surrounding muscles
- Radiofrequency ablation of the nerves supplying the joint, for lasting relief when injections help only temporarily
- Minimally invasive SI joint procedures for the smaller number of cases that need them
Our approach is step-up care: we start with the least invasive option that can resolve the problem and reserve advanced procedures for when they’re truly needed.
SI joint pain care at our Clifton, NJ office
- Board-certified interventional pain management physicians
- Diagnostic injections to pinpoint the SI joint before treating it
- Serving Clifton, Passaic, Montclair, Nutley, Garfield, Woodland Park, and nearby towns
- Same-week evaluations usually available; most insurance accepted

SI joint pain FAQs — Clifton, NJ
What does sacroiliac joint pain feel like?
Most people feel it low on one side of the back or deep in the buttock, sometimes spreading to the hip or groin. It’s often worse with standing, climbing stairs, or getting up from sitting, and it can be mistaken for sciatica.
How is SI joint pain diagnosed in New Jersey?
At our Clifton office, with a focused exam and, when appropriate, a diagnostic SI joint injection — if numbing the joint relieves your pain, it confirms the SI joint as the source.
Is SI joint treatment covered by insurance?
SI joint injections and related treatments are commonly covered when medically appropriate. We accept most major plans and verify your coverage — including No-Fault and personal injury cases — before treatment.
