What We Offer

Diagnosis-Led Pain Management for NJ Patients

Our New Jersey pain management doctors focus on the likely source of your pain, not a one-size procedure. We use a detailed history, physical exam, imaging review, and diagnostic testing when appropriate to design a plan that may include injections, nerve blocks, radiofrequency ablation, medication guidance, physical therapy, chiropractic care, or a spine surgery opinion when needed.

Evaluation & Diagnosis

We review where the pain started, prior imaging, medications, injury history, and function goals so your recommendations are tied to a likely pain generator. You leave with plain-language next steps, not guesswork.

Image-Guided Injections

Epidural steroid injections, facet blocks, medial branch blocks, sacroiliac injections, nerve blocks, and related procedures are performed with fluoroscopy or ultrasound to improve accuracy and support rehabilitation.

Coordinated Care

We work with PPSI spine surgeons, chiropractors, and physical therapists so your plan stays consistent. If your case involves an auto injury, work injury, or surgery decision, we coordinate records, referrals, and follow-up.

Your Visit

What to Expect

Your first appointment includes a detailed discussion of your symptoms, medical history, prior treatments, and goals, plus a physical exam. Bring imaging or records if you have them. We may order or review studies, then recommend a treatment plan that can include a procedure, medication guidance, PT, chiropractic care, or a combination. Procedures are done in our offices with local anesthesia; we explain each step and what to expect afterward.

On-Site Diagnostics

EMG/NCS & Diagnostic Studies

For radiating arm or leg pain, numbness, tingling, weakness, or suspected nerve injury, on-site electrodiagnostic studies (EMG and nerve conduction studies) and imaging help support precise diagnosis and treatment planning.

What Pain Management Doctors Do

Pain management doctors diagnose and treat chronic, severe, or complex pain that has not improved with basic care. At PPSI, that can include evaluation, imaging review, EMG/NCS when appropriate, epidural steroid injections, facet blocks, nerve blocks, radiofrequency ablation, medication guidance, and coordination with physical therapy, chiropractic care, or spine surgery. The goal is to reduce pain, improve function, and help you return to work, sleep, driving, and daily activity with a realistic plan.

Conditions We Treat

We commonly treat back pain, neck pain, sciatica, herniated disc pain, spinal stenosis, arthritis-related joint pain, nerve pain, failed back surgery syndrome, and pain from auto accidents, work injuries, falls, or overuse. We also evaluate patients whose pain has not improved with primary care or who want a second opinion before considering surgery. Not every problem needs an injection; we recommend the least invasive option that fits your condition and goals.

Our Approach

We believe in clear communication and evidence-based care. Your plan is tailored to your diagnosis, lifestyle, work demands, and preferences. We use image-guided procedures when they are likely to help, and we combine them with rehab, activity modification, and medication when appropriate. With locations across New Jersey, PPSI can keep follow-up, testing, and therapy close to home whenever possible.

When to See a Pain Specialist

Consider seeing a pain management specialist if your pain has lasted more than a few weeks, limits daily activity, affects sleep or work, causes radiating symptoms, or has not improved with rest and over-the-counter options. You may also be referred by your primary care doctor, orthopedist, chiropractor, or surgeon. We clarify the cause of your pain and outline options, from conservative care to injections to coordination with surgery, so you can make an informed decision.

Procedures and Safety

Our injections and nerve blocks are performed with fluoroscopy or ultrasound guidance to improve accuracy and reduce risk. We use sterile technique and local anesthesia; many procedures take only a few minutes. You receive after-care instructions, medication guidance when relevant, and follow-up to measure how the treatment affected pain and function. We also explain any limits on driving or activity the day of the procedure.
