Treatments We Offer
At Manhattan Pain Medicine, treatment is selected through diagnosis, not habit. Every medication, procedure, therapy, or intervention is chosen based on what we believe is driving the pain, what the body is protecting, and what needs to change for more durable progress.

How Treatments Fit Into Care
Treating complex pain often requires two paths at the same time: helping the patient feel more comfortable while continuing to address the underlying cause. Some treatments calm inflammation or sensitization. Others support healing, improve stability, retrain movement, or help regulate the nervous system. The right plan depends on the diagnosis, the order of care, and how the body responds.
