Epidural Steroid Injections

Back pain, radiating leg pain, and nerve irritation can severely limit mobility. Epidural steroid injections reduce inflammation at the source, offering targeted relief without surgery. Our multidisciplinary physicians deliver these injections under advanced imaging for optimal safety and precision.

Epidural Steroid Injections

Why Choose Our Specialists for Epidural Injections?

Image-Guided Precision

Every injection is performed under live fluoroscopic or ultrasound guidance to ensure medication is delivered exactly where inflammation exists.

Multidisciplinary Spine Experts

If imaging shows a disc herniation, nerve compression, or spinal instability, our integrated team; including spine surgeons, physical therapists, chiropractors, and podiatrists; coordinates your entire care plan.

Same-Week Appointments

We offer flexible daytime, evening, and Saturday availability so you never wait weeks for relief.

Comprehensive Diagnostics

When appropriate, we perform MRI review, EMG/NCS testing, and motion analysis to understand nerve injury severity before recommending treatment.

Compassion-First Approach

You receive treatment from physicians who prioritize comfort, clarity, and long-term functional recovery; not just symptom reduction.

What Happens During an Epidural Injection?

1. Brief Clinical Evaluation

Your physician assesses symptoms, imaging, and nerve function; especially if numbness, tingling, or radiating pain is present.

2. Image-Guided Needle Placement

A thin needle is guided into the epidural space using fluoroscopy. A small contrast dye confirms perfect positioning.

3. Steroid + Anesthetic Delivery

A targeted corticosteroid mixture reduces nerve inflammation while a local anesthetic provides immediate calming relief.

4. Recovery & Monitoring

Most procedures take 10–15 minutes, with minimal downtime. You may resume light activity the same day.

5. Personalized After-Care Plan

Depending on your diagnosis, we may recommend physical therapy, chiropractic care, bracing, stretching routines, or ergonomic modifications to support long-term relief.
