At Impact Medical Group, our commitment to you is simple—advanced, non-invasive treatments that get you back on your feet without the need for surgery in 2024.

Understanding Interventional Pain Management
When routine isn’t soothing, you need a specialized approach. Enter, interventional pain management. In broad strokes, this form of treatment focuses on the precise diagnosis and the delivery of medication to specific areas of the body, enhancing the effectiveness of conventional pain management with targeted therapies. The major thrust behind this — avoiding invasive surgical procedures whenever possible.
Dr. Robert Gruber, our spearhead in interventional pain management, brings to the table a wealth of experience and a nuanced approach to each patient’s unique pain landscape. His arsenal includes a suite of procedures, all directed towards zeroing in on the source of pain and eliminating it with minimal disruption to the body’s natural systems.
The Spectrum of Non-Surgical Treatments
Below, you’ll find a curated list of non-surgical treatments available to you at Impact Med. Each procedure is a steppingstone on the path to a pain-free life, meticulously designed to provide relief and restore functionality.
- Cervical/Thoracic/Lumbar Discography: A diagnostic tool that identifies the exact disc causing pain in the spine, laying the groundwork for specific treatment.
- Epidural Steroid Injections: Offers anti-inflammatory relief near the spinal nerve roots, reducing leg, back, or body pain.
- Facet Injections: Provides local anesthetic and/or steroid to the facet joints, vital for pain management and improved tolerance to therapy.
- Radio-Frequency Ablation (RFA): Targets chronic back or neck pain by creating lesions on the pain-transmitting nerves.
- Percutaneous Discectomy: A minimally invasive approach to alleviate herniated disc pain without traditional spinal surgery.
- Diagnostic Discograms: A tool to identify painful discs by injecting dye into the disc and observing patient pain responses.
- Selective Nerve Root Blocks (SNRB): Administers cortisone injections to minimize inflammation and pain caused by nerve compression.
- Sacroiliac Injections and Ablations: Assists in pain relief for the lower back and legs by targeting the sacroiliac joint with anti-inflammatory treatments.
The Role of Pain Mapping & Conscious Sedation
In the pursuit of a precise diagnosis, pain mapping involves stimulating specific nerves to replicate a patient’s usual pain. This invaluable technique leads us to the crux of your distress, guiding the subsequent treatment path.
Conscious sedation is deployed with a gentle touch, providing a balanced state where patients are minimally aware, offering respite from discomfort and anxiety during procedures, while also allowing them to respond when needed.
