Treatment options may include image-guided injections, regenerative therapies, physical therapy coordination, or minimally invasive spine procedures designed to reduce inflammation and restore function. Early intervention is essential to prevent chronic back pain from worsening over time. Our goal is to help patients regain comfort, mobility, and confidence through evidence-based, non-surgical pain management whenever possible.
