A Simple Approach to Managing Spine Pain

Are you struggling with pain in your back or neck? Your facet joints may be to blame. These small joints connect the bones of your spine, and they’re susceptible to degeneration and injury–which can lead to pain and restricted mobility. A facet joint injection is a simple procedure that relieves discomfort and helps diagnose problems with your facet joints. Do you think you might benefit from facet joint injections?

Facet Joint Injections: What to Expect

Facet joint injections are simple procedures that require minimal prep and recovery. Our experts will learn more about your medical history and symptoms and provide personalized guidance about what you may need to do beforehand or afterward.

During the procedure, we’ll help you find a comfortable position with access to the spine. We’ll then numb the injection point and, using an X-ray, guide the injection directly into the affected facet joint.

The process itself takes about 15-30 minutes, although we’ll ask you to stay at the clinic for about an hour to ensure a full recovery. Some patients feel a bit weak due to the numbing shot, and we want to provide full support for your recovery.
