Interventional pain medicine

The Centre for Pain Medicine offers all the latest and best-known interventional procedures. Targeted, selective blocks are necessary to confirm a tentative clinical diagnosis and to assess the validity of radiological findings regarding the cause of pain. By reducing the intensity of pain, the right pain therapy can lead to improved attention and concentration skills, and therefore improve the chances of successful cognitive behaviour therapy. Specific blocks can alleviate a patient’s fear of movement and thus allow for physiotherapy to be conducted in a more effective manner. These so-called “blocks” can be guided by x-ray or ultrasound, as well as other instruments.
