MIND

Your emotional state can also be affected by pain. Any preexisting anxiety or depression can worsen, and feelings like sadness, anger, or fear can increase your pain. By getting to the source of your pain quickly, we can help alleviate these feelings.

body

BODY

As pain messages travel along with your nervous system, they create physiological responses in every major body system. We use minimally invasive procedures and non-narcotic alternatives that stop or reduce pain signals, so you can feel better and heal.

SPIRIT

When pain controls your life, your confidence and self-esteem can falter, making daily tasks seem overwhelming. We’ll help you regain your positive outlook on life and re-connect to the best version of yourself – the one that’s free from pain.

Our Patient's Testimonials

Dr. Spiegel is everything you would hope for with regards to pain management. Beyond his knowledge and experience, he is adept and he certainly hit the target during my epidural.

MARY C.

I’ve been a patient of Dr. Spiegel’s for about a year now and he is the most caring doctor I have ever been to. He doesn’t rush with you, he takes the time to go over everything and makes sure you understand it before he leaves the room.

ANONYMOUS

Dr. Hersel is absolutely amazing, genuinely cares about you and finding a solution to relieve your pain. I will never go see another doctor again for pain and or spinal problems.

ANONYMOUS

Dr. Spiegel has kept me mobile and active for over 10 years. As an older woman with bad lumbar and cervical disk disease, determined to avoid surgery, Dr. Spiegel’s epidural injections have helped me continue to travel, play some golf, and enjoy my life with only minimal pain.

JEAN K.

Dr. Hersel is so caring, treating the whole person rather than just the pain site, and earnestly appears to take pride in helping his patients. In short, he is ideal.
