How do nerve block therapies work?
Nerve block therapies interrupt the way pain signals travel from your body to your brain. Our provider injects a local anesthetic, sometimes combined with anti-inflammatory medication, near specific nerves responsible for pain. This temporarily “blocks” the nerve’s ability to send signals, reducing discomfort and calming irritated tissue. In some cases, it can also reset abnormal nerve activity that contributes to pain. By targeting the source directly, nerve blocks provide more precise relief while minimizing the need for systemic medications.
