Chronic pain is more than just lingering discomfort—it’s pain that lasts three months or longer and often persists well beyond the typical healing window of an injury or condition. For millions of people, chronic pain becomes a daily challenge, affecting everything from work and sleep to mood, mobility, and overall quality of life.
Too often, patients are told that surgery is the only option left, especially after conservative treatments fail to deliver lasting relief. But the truth is—surgery isn’t always necessary, and in many cases, it may not even guarantee long-term results.
At Medici Orthopaedics & Spine, we believe in a better approach. Our team focuses on non-surgical, minimally invasive strategies that reduce pain, restore function, and help you live life on your terms—without the risks or downtime of major surgery. By combining physical therapy, regenerative medicine, advanced pain management, and lifestyle-based care, we tailor every plan to the individual. And we do it while minimizing reliance on opioids or long-term medications.
One of the most foundational—and effective—ways to manage chronic pain is through targeted physical therapy. Our expert team at Medici creates customized rehabilitation plans that are tailored to each patient's specific diagnosis, physical condition, and lifestyle goals.
Benefits include:
Whether you’re recovering from an injury or dealing with degenerative joint issues, structured physical therapy can reduce pain naturally and help prevent future flare-ups, all while empowering you to move more confidently every day.
When pain becomes more complex or persistent, interventional procedures can offer significant relief—without the need for surgery. These minimally invasive treatments are performed in-office and are often used to interrupt pain signals or calm inflamed tissues.
Key options offered at Medici include:
These interventional tools provide real results for patients with chronic joint, spine, or nerve pain, especially when combined with rehabilitation and lifestyle therapy. And unlike surgery, they come with minimal downtime and lower risks.
For those seeking to heal—not just mask pain—regenerative medicine is one of the most exciting and innovative options available today. At Medici, we offer Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) and Prolotherapy, both designed to stimulate your body’s own natural repair processes.
These treatments are ideal for:
Performed in-office with minimal downtime, regenerative therapies are a great option for patients looking to avoid surgery and improve long-term joint and tissue health.
It may seem counterintuitive, but gentle movement is often one of the most effective tools for managing chronic pain. When guided by professionals and tailored to your condition, exercise helps improve both function and quality of life.
Recommended options include:
These activities help:
Our team at Medici can create or guide you through a custom movement plan to help you stay safe while building strength and reducing discomfort.
What you eat can have a powerful effect on how you feel—especially when you're dealing with chronic pain.
An anti-inflammatory diet can help reduce systemic inflammation and support healing. We recommend:
Equally important is avoiding processed sugars, fried foods, and refined carbs, which can trigger inflammatory responses in the body.
Chronic pain and stress are often locked in a vicious cycle—pain increases stress, and stress amplifies pain. When the nervous system is in a constant state of overactivation, muscles tense, inflammation rises, and pain signals become more intense and persistent.
Managing stress is essential for breaking this cycle. Techniques such as:
Equally important is quality sleep. During deep sleep, the body releases growth hormones, repairs tissues, and recalibrates pain perception. Poor sleep not only worsens discomfort but also makes it harder for the body to heal.
Chronic pain often leads to muscle tension, joint stiffness, and the development of trigger points—tight, painful knots in the muscle and fascia.
Massage therapy and myofascial release techniques are designed to:
Our licensed therapists provide targeted soft-tissue treatments that not only reduce discomfort but also support other therapies by restoring mobility and improving tissue health.
Used for centuries in traditional medicine, acupuncture is now widely recognized in modern pain management for its ability to stimulate the body’s natural pain-relieving chemicals and modulate nervous system activity.
Key benefits include:
Many patients with chronic back pain, nerve pain, migraines, and fibromyalgia find acupuncture to be a safe, relaxing, and highly effective part of their long-term pain strategy.
Medici is proud to offer Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT)—an advanced, non-invasive treatment that uses pressurized oxygen to supercharge healing at the cellular level.
During treatment, you relax inside a specialized chamber while breathing 100% oxygen, which helps:
HBOT is especially beneficial for patients with neuropathy, diabetic complications, or post-surgical healing delays, and is one of the many advanced modalities we use to support lasting relief.
Medications like ibuprofen or naproxen can help reduce inflammation and ease pain from arthritis, tendonitis, or acute flare-ups. These are used under careful monitoring to minimize risks to the stomach, kidneys, or cardiovascular system.
Creams, gels, and patches (such as lidocaine or diclofenac) deliver targeted relief directly to the painful area—reducing systemic side effects and allowing for more frequent use in some patients.
Drugs like gabapentin or duloxetine are designed to target nerve-related pain (neuropathy, sciatica, radiculopathy) by calming overactive nerve signals. These can be especially beneficial for patients with burning, tingling, or radiating pain.
Chronic pain can touch every aspect of your life—your sleep, your work, your relationships, and your sense of independence. But that doesn’t mean surgery is the only way forward. At Medici Orthopaedics & Spine, we believe that the best outcomes come from restoring your function—not just masking your pain.
With the right combination of non-surgical strategies, evidence-based treatments, and a plan tailored to your unique body, many patients are able to significantly reduce their pain, regain mobility, and return to doing what they love—without the risks or downtime of surgery.
Let Medici Orthopaedics & Spine be your partner in healing. From physical therapy and regenerative medicine to advanced interventional treatments and stress reduction, we offer comprehensive, personalized care that helps you take back control—naturally.
