At Town Center Orthopaedics, pain management services are led by Riju Dasgupta, MD and Omesh Singh, MD, providing comprehensive, non-surgical care for chronic and acute pain. Using advanced image-guided techniques, treatments include epidural steroid injections, SI joint injections, kyphoplasty, sacroplasty, implantable pain pumps, peripheral nerve stimulation, and spinal cord stimulation. Each care plan is personalized to target the source of pain, restore function, and improve quality of life while minimizing reliance on medication.
What Is Interventional Pain Management?
Interventional pain management focuses on diagnosing and treating pain using minimally invasive procedures that target the source of discomfort. Rather than masking symptoms with medication alone, these treatments reduce inflammation, calm irritated nerves, and improve function.
Conditions
Chronic pain can stem from a variety of musculoskeletal and nerve-related conditions. At Town Center Pain Management, we specialize in diagnosing the root cause of pain and developing targeted treatment plans to address both symptoms and underlying pathology. Whether your discomfort is caused by spinal conditions, joint degeneration, nerve compression, or post-surgical complications, our goal is to restore mobility, reduce inflammation, and help you return to an active, pain-free lifestyle. Early and accurate diagnosis is the first step toward effective, long-term relief.
Neck Pain
Common neck pain may occur from muscle strain or tension from everyday activities including poor posture, prolonged use of a computer and sleeping in an uncomfortable position.
Back Pain
Back pain or backache is the pain felt in the back that may originate from damage to the muscles, nerves, bones, joints or other structures in the spine.
Muscle and Joint Pain
Muscle pain or myalgia is a discomfort experienced in the muscle tissue and can be felt practically anywhere in the body.
Sacroiliac Joint Pain
Sacroiliac joint pain is pain felt in the groin, leg, and lower back due to dysfunction of the sacroiliac or SI joint.
Complex Regional Pain Syndrome
Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) is a chronic pain condition characterized by severe pain, swelling, and changes in the skin.
Treatments
Our interventional pain management treatments are designed to provide effective, minimally invasive relief without the need for major surgery. Using advanced imaging guidance and evidence-based techniques, we target the precise source of pain to reduce inflammation, calm irritated nerves, and improve overall function. From spinal injections and nerve blocks to radiofrequency ablation and advanced neuromodulation therapies, we offer personalized solutions tailored to each patient’s condition, severity of pain, and long-term goals. Our focus is on delivering safe, lasting results with minimal downtime.
Epidural Steroid Injections
Epidural steroid injections (ESIs) are minimally invasive procedures used to relieve pain and inflammation in the spine.
SI Joint Injections
Sacroiliac joints (SI joint) are joints in the lower back region, where the sacrum and ilium bones join.
Kyphoplasty
Balloon kyphoplasty is a spine surgery that relieves back pain caused by a vertebral compression fracture.
Sacroplasty
Sacroplasty is a minimally invasive procedure designed to stabilize sacral insufficiency fractures-tiny breaks in the sacrum (the bone at the base of the spine)
Implantable Pain Pumps
An implantable pain pump, also known as an intrathecal drug delivery system, is a small medical device placed under the skin to deliver pain medication directly to the spinal fluid.
Spinal Cord Stimulation
A spinal cord stimulator is a device that sends electrical impulses to the areas of the spinal cord causing pain and interferes with the transmission of pain signals to the brain.
Peripheral Nerve Stimulation
Peripheral nerve stimulation is a minimally invasive treatment for chronic pain and pain caused due to peripheral nerve damage.
Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) Injections
Our blood consists of a liquid component known as plasma. It also consists of three main solid components which include the red blood cells (RBCs), white blood cells (WBCs), and platelets.
Other Interventional Pain Procedures
Radiofrequency Ablation, Medial Branch Block Injections, Trigger Point Injections, Nerve Blocks, Facet Joint Injections
