- Treating a Variety of Conditions

When it comes to managing and alleviating pain, we first need to understand the source. To get to a life with reduced pain, you may choose pain management rather than undergoing a surgical or interventional procedure. With this option — regardless of your underlying condition — we focus on reducing your pain and bringing you comfort.
At AdventHealth Apopka, we specialize in treating pain related to:
- Arthritis
- Back, joint and neck pain
- Cancer
- Complex regional pain syndrome (or reflex sympathetic dystrophy)
- Headaches
- Herniated discs
- Myofascial pain syndrome
- Neuropathy
- Pain from injuries and accidents

Everyone experiences pain differently. What alleviates one person’s pain may not work for you, even if you have the same condition. Because your pain is as unique as you, our pain specialists will take the time to evaluate the cause of your pain, understand your symptoms, learn about any previous approaches taken and present you with a range of treatment options that may include:
- Behavior modification
- Biofeedback
- Electrical stimulation
- Local nerve-blocking anesthetics
- Medical management
- Non-medical pain management, including acupuncture and relaxation techniques
- Physical therapy
- Psychological counseling
- Steroid injections
Whatever the cause of your pain, we’ll work with you to find the best path forward.
- Dedicated to Helping You Feel Whole Again
