Chronic Pain Management Treatment in Illinois

The Challenge of Finding Quality Chronic Pain Management Treatment

Quality chronic pain management treatment can be difficult to come by. Chronic pain can manifest for various reasons–from damage due to diabetes to traumatic injury. Regardless of the cause, chronic pain can be incredibly debilitating for patients to live with and it can drastically change a lifestyle. Oftentimes, patients with chronic pain struggle with limited mobility, muscle weakness, insomnia, and mental challenges as well. Finding relief for chronic pain can be complicated, especially when doctors are unable to determine the root cause of pain immediately. At BEST Health System, we work closely with patients to understand their symptoms and concerns to create an intentional treatment plan consisting of conservative and minimally invasive treatments. 

Many chronic pain patients have difficulty finding a doctor who truly understands their condition. Far too often, patients are prescribed pain medications like opioids which can encourage a reliance on these substances. At BEST, our doctors utilize advanced therapy options to minimize pain perception and help patients return to an active lifestyle. 

Pain Management Doctors in Illinois

BEST Health System strongly believes that all patients deserve high-quality access to premier surgical care. From poor patient outcomes to lengthy wait times and recovery periods–the nuances of getting medical treatment can be overwhelming. At BEST, it is our priority to relieve some of that stress by connecting you with a nearby qualified doctor who specializes in your treatment and understands what you need to feel your best. 

BEST Health System has five locations located throughout Illinois. At these clinics, patients can find high-quality treatment for neuropathy, complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS), failed back surgery syndrome (FBSS), and more. Our specialists work closely with patients to understand their goals and then find a treatment that will help them get there. Neuromodulation is one of our most common procedures, which involves the implantation of a small device in the lower spine that has lead wires that connect to the spinal cord. This device will send painless electrical signals to the spinal cord to block pain signals from reaching the brain. This is a drug-free option that can help patients live more active and comfortable lifestyles without the need for invasive surgery.
