Conditions and Treatments

Most of our patients are dealing with pain that is caused by an injury or underlying condition. The first step the MIPainRelief team takes in treating pain is to identify its source. The complexity of the human body means that finding the exact source of your pain can sometimes be a difficult task. Fortunately our dynamic pain mapping technology and skilled physicians are up to the challenge.

Treatments

Relieve Pain Right at the Source. No Surgery Required. Although the MIPainRelief team was founded by an expert surgeon, surgery is not always the best way to tackle chronic pain and inflammation. For many of our patients, we recommend our innovative, minimally invasive injection based therapy. A true breakthrough in pain management, our doctors can apply local anesthesia, and map out the sources of pain in the patient’s body. The physician will then inject medicine directly into the trigger points, relieving the pain. Although these therapies are minimally invasive, they are simple procedures and not surgeries. A part of our treatment philosophy is to use the most gentle and least invasive way possible of relieving pain and restoring health. Our promise to patients is to relieve pain, with as little pain as possible.
