Your Personal Pain Management Team

We're always on your side

Most people who come to see us have chronic or severe low back pain. Often they’ve been to other doctors, often many doctors actually. Oftentimes they’ve had surgeries that haven’t worked. So it starts to affect different areas of their life. They can become depressed. They sometimes can’t hold a job, or relationships are affected. They can’t sleep, energy levels get lower.

Does this ring a bell? Sound familiar? Is this you?

Our expert Pain Management Team can help you.

You may be thinking (along with many others who have eventually come to us for treatment) that you have gone somewhere for ‘this’ and somewhere else for ‘that’ and there doesn’t seem to be any communication between the doctors you’ve seen. You are NOT alone!

That’s really why we exist! That’s what having everything under one roof does for you -- it really enhances the communication about each of our patients’ care. The Pain Management Team at The Pain Institute meets twice every day, every morning and every lunch, and discusses every single person who’s going to be coming in to our clinic, to make sure everyone is on the same page for each patient’s treatment plan. Your care is more consistent, comprehensive, and caring because our Team communicates very closely and focuses entirely on the 'whole you'. No more of the hit-or-miss, fragmented care that comes with seeing doctors in different practices, different offices, and different towns!

The Pain Institute is unique -- we are an integrated medical facility.
What does that really mean for you?

The word ‘integrated’ means that we have different types of doctors and other medical professionals who work together all in the same clinic whose sole purpose is to work with you to reduce or eliminate your pain. In our office we have a full-scope Pain Management Team with medical doctors, nurses and physical therapists who work hand-in-hand to provide complete, soup-to-nuts care to effectively treat your pain, all under one roof. And all working for you!

If you have discomfort in your neck, back, and joints, why live with the pain? The Pain Management Team at The Pain Institute, conveniently located here in Swansea, Illinois, specializes in the treatment of chronic and acute pain for all of greater Saint Louis. We offer state-of-the-art techniques such as non-surgical decompression, the treatment we use most often for the disk problems. It’s an advanced technology which we provide to give our patients the best possible advantage in treating their pain.

Because you can receive the different types of treatment, and see different types of doctors and staff...

Our Pain Management Team can treat you in ways
that a standalone clinic really never could.

This multi-disciplinary, under-one-roof, Pain Management Team approach is the leading edge of spine care, of pain management in general. It is the model of care that important healthcare centers like the Cleveland Clinic, the Mayo Clinic, some of the more famous hospitals in the Northeast - use as their model of care. We are pleased to bring the newest, most effective pain management system and treatments to greater Saint Louis and make it all available to you.
