Comprehensive Procedures for Pain Management
Treatment Approach
At Sobel Spine and Sports, we believe that the foundation of successful treatment lies in obtaining an accurate diagnosis. From there, our goal is to create and implement an individualized treatment program that addresses the unique needs of each patient. Our approach is designed to not only reduce physical impairments and disabilities but also to enhance overall quality of life, enabling our patients to return to their daily activities with improved functionality and reduced discomfort.
Dr. Sobel takes a holistic and patient-centered approach to pain management, focusing on non-opioid alternatives to effectively manage and alleviate pain. He does not support the long-term use of narcotics as a solution for chronic pain, recognizing the importance of finding more sustainable and safer treatments. Instead, Dr. Sobel utilizes a variety of advanced, evidence-based techniques aimed at promoting healing, improving mobility, and reducing pain without reliance on potentially addictive medications.
At our clinic, we specialize in the treatment of a wide range of common musculoskeletal issues. These include both acute and chronic conditions, such as low back pain, sciatica, pinched nerves, tennis elbow, golfer’s elbow, and shoulder pain, among others. We understand the significant impact these conditions can have on a person’s everyday life, and we are committed to providing personalized care that targets the root cause of each issue.
Dr. Sobel also offers Electromyography (EMG) testing, an invaluable tool for diagnosing a variety of neurological and musculoskeletal conditions. This diagnostic procedure helps assess conditions such as carpal tunnel syndrome, sciatica, and peripheral neuropathy, allowing us to gather detailed insights into nerve and muscle function. By incorporating EMG testing into our diagnostic process, we are able to more accurately pinpoint the source of pain and discomfort, leading to more effective and tailored treatment plans.
Whether you're dealing with a recent injury or have been struggling with a long-term condition, the team at Sobel Spine and Sports is here to help guide you toward relief and recovery. Our commitment to patient care ensures that every individual receives the attention, support, and treatment they need to regain their optimal health and well-being.
