Neck Pain
Image-Guided, Non-Surgical Treatment Options

Understanding Neck Pain

Neck pain can affect turning your head, working, driving, sleeping, and everyday activities. Pain may arise from several structures in the cervical spine, including the facet joints and intervertebral discs. Symptoms may also extend into the shoulders or arms depending on the structures involved.

Common neck conditions we evaluate include:

  •  Cervical facet joint pain and degeneration disc
  •  Cervical disc degeneration
  •  Disc-related neck pain
  • Chronic neck pain associated with degenerative changes
  •   Persistent neck pain despite conservative treatment

 Determining the source of neck pain is important because treatment options depend on the structures involved, the patient's symptoms, examination findings, and imaging.

How Regenerative Therapy May Help

 Regenerative medicine approaches may be considered for appropriately selected patients with certain types of cervical facet or disc-related pain. Treatment is intended to target the affected area, with the goal of supporting function, reducing pain and inflammation, and improving mobility.



These therapies may aim to:

  • Address pain associated with cervical facet joints or discs
  •  Help reduce pain and inflammation
  •  Improve neck mobility and function
  •    Improve comfort with everyday activities
  •  Provide a non-surgical treatment option for appropriate patients 

When appropriate, cervical spine procedures may use fluoroscopic or advanced 3D image guidance for precise treatment placement.

Treatment recommendations are individualized based on your symptoms, examination, imaging findings, and overall health.

Potential Benefits
Patients may experience:

  • Reduced neck pain and stiffness
  •   Improved mobility and function 
  •  Greater comfort with daily activate
  •  Fewer limitations from chronic neck pain
  •  Potential to delay more invasive treatment 

Who May Be a Candidate
You may be considered if you:

  • Have ongoing or recurring neck pain
  •  Cervical facet or disc-related pain
  •  Limited improvement with conservative care
  •  Imaging findings that correlate symptoms
  • Exploring non-surgical treatment options

Important Considerations

  • Results vary by condition and individual
  • Regenerative therapies are not guaranteed 
  • Medical evaluation is required to determine candidacy

What to Expect

Your consultation includes:

  • Review of your neck pain symptoms and medical history
  • Review of prior neck treatments and relevant spine imaging
  • Evaluation of cervical spine function and mobility
  • Assessment of whether regenerative treatment may be appropriate
  • Discussion of realistic expectations and treatment alternatives

Explore Your Options Before Surgery

If persistent neck pain is limiting your mobility or quality of life, regenerative treatment may be worth exploring before proceeding with more invasive cervical spine treatment. For appropriately selected patients with certain cervical facet or disc-related conditions, these procedures may offer a non-surgical treatment option.

When a cervical spine procedure is recommended, fluoroscopic or advanced 3D image guidance is used to precisely visualize the treatment area and guide placement.
