Pain Management Doctor in Hackensack, NJ

When you are dealing with aches and pains that creep into your daily routine and make it challenging to do the things you love, you may wonder what specialist to turn to. While your general practitioner may be the first doctor you turn to, they will likely refer you to our Hackensack, NJ, board-certified pain management and rehabilitation doctor (Physiatrist) if you are dealing with spine-related musculoskeletal issues. Whether you’ve developed severe neck pain after a car accident or noticed numbness or tingling in the extremities, our team can help.

What is the Role of a Pain Management and Rehabilitation Physician (Physiatrist)

Suppose you are dealing with an injury, condition or disorder that affects the brain and spinal cord (better known as the central nervous system) or the joints, bones, ligaments, muscles, nerves or tendons (known as the musculoskeletal system). In that case, our Hackensack, NJ, board-certified pain management and rehabilitation physician (Physiatrist) are the ideal specialists to turn to for care. We craft tailored treatment plans that alleviate pain and other problems while improving mobility and quality of life.

What is Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation?

Physical medicine and rehabilitation are two main areas that our rehabilitation and pain management physicians focus on when providing patient care. Here’s what these two areas entail,

Physical Medicine

Our team will craft a comprehensive treatment plan with the primary goal of restoring functionality and improving mobility so patients can continue to live an independent and good quality of life. If you’ve experienced a traumatic injury, our team can provide braces, splints and other adaptive equipment that can help restore function and make it easier to perform tasks and chores.

Rehabilitation

We can also prescribe specific exercises, therapies, pain management treatments and more for muscle or nerve conditions. We can help you find ways to control your pain and other problems through rehabilitation. We are a team of doctors, meaning we can also prescribe medication when necessary; however, we also know that many medications, particularly pain medications, come with adverse side effects. We can work with patients to create a drug-free plan incorporating therapeutic and holistic methods such as acupuncture and osteopathic manipulation therapy.
