ELECTIVE PROCEDURES

• Regenerative Medicine: Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy

At Integrity Pain & Wellness, we are committed to offering cutting-edge treatments to promote healing and restore function. Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy is a cornerstone of our regenerative medicine offerings. PRP involves using a patient’s own blood, which is processed to concentrate the platelets and growth factors, and then injected into damaged tissues to stimulate natural healing. This minimally invasive treatment is effective for conditions such as joint pain, tendon injuries, and osteoarthritis. By harnessing the body’s own healing mechanisms, PRP offers a safe and innovative approach to pain relief and tissue repair, helping patients return to their active lifestyles.

• PTSD Treatment with Stellate Ganglion Block

Our interventional pain practice is uniquely qualified to offer stellate ganglion block (SGB) for the treatment of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). SGB is a targeted injection of local anesthetic near the stellate ganglion, a collection of nerves in the neck, to help regulate the body’s “fight or flight” response, which is often overactive in PTSD. Interventional pain specialists, like those at Integrity Pain & Wellness, are highly trained in image-guided procedures, ensuring precision and safety during SGB. Our expertise in managing complex pain conditions and performing advanced nerve blocks allows us to deliver this specialized treatment with the highest level of skill, offering patients relief from PTSD symptoms such as anxiety, hypervigilance, and emotional distress.

• Ketamine Infusion Therapy for Pain, PTSD, and Depression

Ketamine infusion therapy is a transformative treatment we offer for chronic pain, PTSD, and depression. Administered in a controlled, low-dose setting, ketamine works by modulating pain pathways and promoting neuroplasticity, which can help alleviate symptoms of these conditions. As an anesthesiology practice, Integrity Pain & Wellness is uniquely positioned to provide ketamine infusions safely and effectively. Our anesthesiologists have extensive training in pharmacology, patient monitoring, and managing medications with sedative properties, ensuring precise dosing and patient safety during infusions. Unlike other specialties, our expertise in anesthesiology allows us to tailor treatments to each patient’s needs while minimizing risks, making us the ideal choice for this advanced therapy.
