Interventional Pain Management & Back Pain Treatment
Addressing Chronic Back Pain with Interventional Pain Management
Chronic back pain keeps you from living your life the way you want to. When it comes to dealing with discomfort, over-the-counter or prescription medication may only mask symptoms. Some drugs can have serious side effects or put you at risk for addiction.
Interventional pain management provides quicker recovery periods and a lower risk of complications than surgery does. Sonoran Spine offers a range of nonsurgical pain relieving procedures to patients in Tempe, Gilbert, and North Scottsdale.

What is Interventional Pain Management?
Interventional pain management is a branch of medicine that focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of disorders related to pain. A multidisciplinary approach relying on a team of medical professionals working together provides a full range of treatment options and services for patients who suffer from acute and/or chronic pain.
Interventional pain management is a noninvasive treatment solution. Utilizing pain-blocking techniques, its goal is to relieve, reduce, or manage pain in order to improve a patient's overall quality of life.
Why Surgery isn't Always the Answer for Back Pain
There are cases when surgery is the only option for reducing pain. A ruptured disc resulting from an accident or injury or a spinal defect present from birth may require surgical intervention for repair.
Surgery is a major medical procedure that doesn't come without risks.
In interventional pain management, the least-invasive procedure deemed effective in treating a specific injury or pain is used. Nerve blocks interrupt pain signals that travel down a nerve to the brain. In spinal cord stimulation, gentle electrical currents are applied to the source of pain to block the ability of the brain to perceive it. Injections target different pain spots in the body with a combination of a numbing agent and a steroid. Radiofrequency ablation utilizes a radio wave to produce an electrical current in order to heat an area of painful nerve tissue.

I think the best way to describe my experience is to say that when I first went to Sonoran spine, my lower back pain was between 6 and 8. After my treatment that I finished last week, it is now between 0 and 2.

Success stories
The staff at the front is very kind and addressed me right when I walked into the door. I only waited for 10 minutes before being brought back. The MA for the doctor was very friendly. The doctor was prompt and very informative about my condition. He even overbooked me the same week to get my injection done before I am to go back home. Very efficient staff who provided me with the direct number and e-mail address to contact if I had any questions. I would recommend this office to anyone!
Dr. Mosallaie isn't just good at his job, he's a caring doctor. He has a great staff and they all put the patients care and safety first. I recommend Dr. Mosallaie to anyone who needs help in his area of expertise. Awesome staff always caring and knows what they're doing.
