Spine care

Pain in the low back, thoracic spine and neck can arise from many sources. Americans spent $134.5 billion on back and neck pain treatments in 2016.1 The specialists at Colorado Nerve Care are leaders in the field of a broad approach to diagnosing the cause of your pain. 

The source of pain changes over time. Within the first few months of an injury, pain is usually generated through a tissue pathway and processed in the sensory part of the brain. Between three months to a year, pain shifts to being generated through a brain pathway and processed in the cognitive and emotional parts of the brain.

This emerging understanding is great news for people who suffer from chronic back and neck pain. Rather than repeating the same treatments for tissue problems that no longer work, we can instead focus our efforts on processing by the central nervous system, which will yield long-lasting results. 

At Colorado Nerve Care, we tailor the evidence-based PNE+ approach to resolve chronic neck and back pain. There are many treatment avenues possible in the PNE+ paradigm, and your knowledgeable provider will select the most effective methods for you.
