Nerve blocks involve injecting anesthetic — and sometimes anti-inflammatory medication — near specific nerves to temporarily block pain signals, providing diagnostic clarity and significant relief for conditions like neuropathy, joint pain, or radiculopathy. This procedure helps break the cycle of chronic pain, allowing better participation in therapy and daily activities.
How it worksA nerve block targets the specific nerves carrying pain signals from an affected area. By placing anesthetic near those nerves, the signal is temporarily interrupted — which can deliver meaningful relief and also help your providers confirm exactly where pain originates.
That window of relief matters: it helps break the cycle of chronic pain so you can participate more fully in therapy, movement, and daily life. At ReGlow Wellness, nerve blocks are delivered with care by licensed medical providers in our soothing, spa-like environment.
