Not all lower back pain actually begins in the spine. In some cases, the sacroiliac joint, where the spine connects to the pelvis, is the structure responsible.

Diagnosing SI joint pain requires careful testing because symptoms often mimic other spine conditions. Once confirmed, treatment may range from targeted injections to minimally invasive stabilization procedures.

Understanding the true source of pain is what guides the next step.

Shoulder joints handle an enormous amount of daily demand. Reaching overhead, lifting groceries, carrying bags, even sleeping on your side can place stress on the joint.

When inflammation develops in structures like the rotator cuff or bursa, that routine motion becomes painful. Image-guided shoulder injections are designed to calm that irritation and help restore comfortable movement without jumping straight to surgery.

Augusta Pain Center has been serving the Augusta community for over 20 years, and the practice has grown specifically to meet the needs of patients with complicated or persistent pain. 🏥

The team includes Dr. Richard S. Epter, an internationally recognized interventional pain physician with five board certifications; Dr. William S. Schiff, a licensed pain psychologist; and Kayla Whaley, MSN, FNP-C, a certified family nurse practitioner who supports patients across the full continuum of care.

Together, the providers bring more than 50 years of combined experience to every patient who walks through the door.

That kind of depth is rare for a practice based in Augusta, and it means patients have access to a genuinely comprehensive team without leaving home.

"I was supposed to have surgery on my neck because I was told it was the only way to alleviate the excruciating pain that I was in. I did not want to have surgery, but I did not know there were other options. Dr. Epter changed all that for me and has helped to reduce the pain immensely."

Todd came to us facing a surgery he didn't want, with no clear understanding that alternatives existed. His experience points to something that drives the way we practice: patients deserve to know their full range of options before making decisions as significant as spinal surgery. If you're in a similar position, a second opinion with our team may be worth more than you expect.

Heart health often comes down to daily habits that seem small in the moment but matter greatly over time. Simple choices such as staying physically active, managing stress, getting quality sleep, and maintaining a balanced diet all contribute to long-term cardiovascular health.

Our team recently compiled practical guidance on lifestyle habits that support a healthier heart and longer life. If you’re interested in how everyday choices can strengthen your cardiovascular health, we invite you to learn more.

Living with chronic pain is a psychological experience as much as a physical one, and Dr. William S. Schiff, Psy.D., brings two decades of experience helping patients navigate that reality. 🧠

As Augusta Pain Center's behavioral health provider, Dr. Schiff works within the same care team as the interventional physicians rather than functioning as a separate referral.

His focus is on the ways chronic pain affects sleep, mood, cognition, and daily functioning, and on building strategies that support patients between procedures and appointments.

Having a psychologist embedded in a pain practice is still uncommon, and it's one of the things that makes the care at Augusta Pain Center genuinely comprehensive.

Spinal cord stimulation is one of the more advanced therapies available in modern pain medicine. Instead of masking discomfort with medication, the therapy works by adjusting how pain signals travel through the nervous system.

A small device delivers gentle electrical pulses to the spinal cord, which can change how the brain interprets those signals.

For certain patients with persistent nerve pain, that shift can make everyday movement feel far more manageable.

Most patients who walk through our door have already seen multiple doctors, tried multiple medications, and still don't have clear answers.

That's exactly why the first appointment here is built around listening, not just examining. 👂

We want to understand how pain is showing up in your daily life, what you've already tried, and what matters most to you moving forward.

By the end of that visit, our goal is for you to leave with a plan that makes sense for your specific situation, not a generic set of next steps.

Pain rarely responds to a single intervention.

That’s why treatment plans here often combine targeted procedures with physical therapy, aquatic therapy, and supportive strategies that reinforce progress between visits.

Each component has a purpose. Each step builds on the last.

The goal isn’t temporary relief. It’s restoring function in a way that holds up over time.

You shouldn’t have to leave Augusta to access advanced spine treatment.

Our physicians focus on non-surgical, individualized approaches designed to support real life, whether that means staying active, traveling comfortably, or keeping up with daily responsibilities.

Increased activity, seasonal changes, or long drives can all aggravate existing back pain.

Having experienced specialists close to home makes continuity of care easier.

If you’ve been told to “just manage it” with medication, you’re not alone.

Many patients are surprised to learn how many non-medication options exist for chronic pain.

Interventional procedures, nerve-targeted treatments, aquatic therapy, and behavioral support can all play a role, depending on the condition.

Pain care isn’t about masking symptoms. It’s about identifying what’s driving them and responding strategically.

Lower back pain isn’t always coming from the spine itself. For some patients, the sacroiliac joint, where the spine meets the pelvis, is the true source.

This type of pain can make standing, walking, or even rolling over in bed uncomfortable.

When physical therapy and injections no longer provide relief, minimally invasive SI joint fusion may be discussed.

We take time to confirm the diagnosis first. From there, decisions are made carefully and collaboratively.
