Comprehensive and multidisciplinary treatment of pain from simple to complex conditions, including back pain (upper back pain and lower back pain), failed back surgery, neck pain, painful neuropathy, chronic migraines,carpal tunnel treatment without open surgery, complex regional pain syndrome, facial pain, sciatica, failed back surgery, leg pain and arm pain and many other forms of chronic painful conditions. We specialize in minimally invasive, effective outpatient procedures (please visit our website for more information in these techniques www.SmpsClinic.com) aimed at avoiding surgery, provide powerful pain control and increase physical function. Our general treatment policy is: If a treatment is shown to be "better than a sugar pill (placebo)" in controled clinical trials (so-called evidence-based medicine) AND better than other existing treatments for a particular condition AND safe to the patient, we include it in our treatment programs. This strategy always emphasizes an individualized approach to pain care. We disagree with offering fashionable "one fits all" concepts (such as "laser", "non-surgical decompression", etc.). Although these therapy modalities are also considered by us from time to time, we individualize treatments because the role of the pain generators vary substantially from person to person, as supported in the scientific and medical literature. We constantly research new emerging technologies. If any of these is shown effective and superior to others, we include it in our program.
