A specialized staff offers a variety of interventional (injection) options, including:
Cervical/Lumbar Epidural Steroid Injection: Steroid is injected into the epidural space, located outside of the spinal cord area, to treat symptoms secondary to nerve root irritation or central spinal canal stenosis.
