✨ Exploring PRP Therapy for Pain Relief?

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy is a regenerative treatment that uses a patient's own blood components to help support the body's natural healing process. PRP may be considered for certain tendon, ligament, joint, and musculoskeletal conditions.

At Midwest Innovative Pain Management, we offer PRP consultations to determine if this treatment may be a good option for your specific condition.

Please note:
✔️ The consultation/follow-up visit may be covered by insurance (depending on your plan)
✔️ The PRP procedure itself is not covered by insurance and is considered a self-pay/cash-pay service
✔️ We offer competitive PRP pricing compared to surrounding practices

Every patient's treatment plan is unique, and our providers will work with you to determine the best options for your individual needs.

📞 Contact our office to learn more about PRP therapy and pricing.

Platelets are the smallest cells in your blood, but they have incredible healing powers. Learn how using the healing properties of platelets can work for a variety of health conditions.

🔥 Chronic Back or Neck Pain? Radiofrequency Ablation May Help.

If you have pain caused by irritated facet joints in your spine, Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) may be a treatment option to help provide longer-lasting relief.

RFA is a minimally invasive procedure that uses heat energy to target specific nerves responsible for transmitting pain signals. Before considering RFA, patients typically undergo two diagnostic medial branch nerve blocks to confirm that the targeted nerves are contributing to their pain and to help determine if they are a good candidate for the procedure.

RFA may help patients experiencing:
✔️ Chronic neck pain
✔️ Chronic back pain
✔️ Facet joint pain
✔️ Pain related to spinal arthritis

At Midwest Innovative Pain Management, we take a personalized approach to care. Every treatment plan is tailored to each patient's unique condition, needs, and goals.

✅ Advanced interventional pain treatments
✅ Most major insurance plans accepted
📅 New patients typically seen within 1–3 business days

If chronic pain is limiting your daily activities, contact our office to learn if RFA may be right for you.

Radiofrequency ablation is a treatment meant to provide long-lasting relief from chronic joint pain, targeting pain at the nerve level. Here’s what you need to know about the procedure and what it may offer for you and your joint pain condition.

⚡ Sharp, Electric-Like Facial Pain? It Could Be Trigeminal Neuralgia.

If you're experiencing sudden, severe facial pain triggered by everyday activities like talking, eating, brushing your teeth, or even a light breeze, you may be suffering from trigeminal neuralgia.

This condition affects the trigeminal nerve, which provides sensation to the face, and can cause intense, shock-like pain that interferes with daily life.

At Midwest Innovative Pain Management, we offer Trigeminal Nerve Blocks as a treatment option to help reduce pain and improve your quality of life. Every patient is evaluated individually, and treatment is tailored to their unique needs.

✅ Personalized treatment plans

You don't have to face chronic facial pain alone. Contact our office to learn if a trigeminal nerve block may be right for you.

A chronic pain condition that can produce excruciating facial pain, trigeminal neuralgia has several characteristic symptoms that point to the trigeminal nerve as the source. Learn about five of its hallmark symptoms here.

💉 Could an Epidural Steroid Injection Help Relieve Your Pain?

If you're experiencing pain that radiates from your neck or back into your arms or legs, an epidural steroid injection (ESI) may help reduce inflammation around irritated nerves and provide lasting pain relief.

ESIs are commonly used to treat:
✔️ Herniated discs
✔️ Sciatica
✔️ Spinal stenosis
✔️ Cervical or lumbar radiculopathy

At Midwest Innovative Pain Management, every treatment plan is personalized to your unique condition and goals. Our providers will perform a thorough evaluation to determine whether an epidural steroid injection—or another treatment option—is right for you.

📅 We strive to see new patients within 1–3 business days.
✅ Most major insurance plans accepted.

You may be familiar with epidural injections connected with childbirth, a safe and effective way to manage the pain of labor and delivery. Epidurals are a valuable resource in the general pain management toolbox for a wide range of conditions.
