Epidural Steroid Injections
Reduce inflammation and nerve irritation in the spine. Ideal for patients with back pain, herniated discs, or sciatica. Performed under image guidance for precision and quick relief.
Spine Facet Injections/Blocks
Used to treat arthritis-related pain in the small joints of the spine. These injections help both diagnose and relieve localized back or neck pain.
Nerve Blocks
Temporarily block pain signals from specific nerves. Often used for diagnostic clarity or to manage severe, localized pain in the spine or extremities.
Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA)
A minimally invasive procedure that uses heat to disrupt pain signals from affected nerves. Long-lasting relief, often up to a year, for chronic back or neck pain.
Shoulder, Hip, Knee Injections
Image-guided joint injections that relieve inflammation and stiffness in major joints caused by arthritis, overuse, or injury. Patients often experience improved mobility and reduced pain.
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) Treatment
PRP has anti-inflammatory effects which can decrease pain and swelling in the spine, shoulder, hip, knee, other joints. Effective for conditions such as arthritis or tendinopathy.
In mild-to-moderate injuries, PRP may accelerate healing by enhancing tissue regeneration — especially in tendon, ligament, muscle, and cartilage.

A Modern Approach to Restoring Movement and Reducing Pain
Explore how non-invasive technology like HIFEM/HIFAM + RF therapy is helping patients regain function—without drugs, injections, or surgery.

Innovative, Non-Invasive Therapy for Pain Relief and Functional Restoration
At OC Regenerative & Pain Center, we offer advanced, non-invasive therapies that combine high-intensity electromagnetic muscle activation (HIFEM/HIFAM) with radiofrequency (RF) technology to support pain relief, improved function, and long-term musculoskeletal health. This treatment approach is completely drug-free and does not involve injections, surgery, or downtime. HIFEM/HIFAM therapy works by delivering focused electromagnetic energy that induces deep, involuntary muscle contractions beyond what can be achieved through voluntary exercise alone.
These powerful contractions help strengthen and retrain key stabilizing muscles surrounding the spine and joints, improving structural support, posture, and biomechanics. Enhanced muscular stability can reduce mechanical stress on joints and soft tissues, often leading to meaningful pain reduction and improved daily function.

Enhanced Results Through Combined Technology
When combined with radiofrequency therapy, controlled therapeutic heat is delivered to surrounding tissues, which may enhance blood flow, improve muscle flexibility, and support tissue recovery. Together, these technologies work synergistically to promote muscle health, reduce stiffness, and support the body’s natural healing processes.
This non-invasive therapy is offered as part of a comprehensive, physician-directed pain management program. Many patients choose this option to help reduce chronic musculoskeletal pain, improve strength and mobility, decrease reliance on pain medications, and support long-term functional wellness.
Conditions We Treat
Explore common pain conditions we treat and how our personalized care approach can help you return to a more comfortable, active life.
Back and Neck Pain
Often caused by disc herniation, muscle strain, or arthritis, we use targeted treatments to reduce inflammation, restore mobility, and relieve pain.
Sciatica and Nerve Pain
Sharper, burning sensations that radiate down the leg or arm can stem from nerve compression. We offer relief through precise injections and anti-inflammatory therapies.
Joint Pain
(Shoulder, Hip, Knee)
Whether due to arthritis, injury, or overuse, joint pain can impact daily function. We treat with image-guided injections and regenerative therapies.
Personal Injury–Related Pain
Whether caused by a car accident, slip and fall, or workplace injury, personal injuries often result in musculoskeletal or nerve pain. We offer thorough evaluations, detailed documentation, and comprehensive treatments including imaging, injections, and therapy coordination to support your recovery and case needs.
