Summary

  • I specialize in opioid sparing treatments to help patients manage chronic pain. I utilize safe, yet effective, interventions to provide patients with pain relief. They can then start a reconditioning program that will help engage the endogenous pain inhibition system. My goal is to help patients to have a good quality by activation of natural pain modulators.
