Sacroiliac joint pain starts where your spine meets your pelvis—do you know why this spot matters so much? 💡

The sacroiliac (SI) joint is a small but mighty connection linking the sacrum (the triangular bone at the base of your spine) to the ilium (part of your pelvis). When something disrupts this area—even a little—the results can be life-changing.

Sacroiliac (SI) joint dysfunction refers to pain or discomfort arising from abnormalities or imbalances in the sacroiliac joint, which connects the sacrum (the triangular bone at the base of the spine) to the ilium (part of the pelvis). Many patients are surprised at how often SI joint dysfunction goes overlooked, especially when their chronic pain, stiffness, or mobility issues do not match what shows up on a scan.

Why can SI joint pain feel so defeating? This tiny joint is deeply involved in almost everything you do:
- Helps your body absorb shock from walking, running, or lifting
- Transfers weight and movement between your upper body and legs
- Supplies stability for sitting, standing, and even rolling over in bed

Potential contributors to SI joint pain include trauma, pregnancy-related ligament laxity, degenerative and inflammatory conditions, leg length discrepancy, overuse or repetitive stress, muscle imbalance, sacroiliitis, structural abnormalities, and stress fractures.

Common symptoms include lower back pain (often one-sided), buttock pain that may radiate down one leg, pain in the hip, groin or thigh, pain when twisting, bending, or lifting, pain while sitting, and occasionally swelling or warmth if there is inflammation.

Diagnosing SI joint pain can be complex and typically involves a combination of medical history, physical examination, and diagnostic tests.

Care plans progress step-by-step. Many start with targeted physio and lifestyle changes. Treatments may advance to injections, radiofrequency denervation, or surgery—but only if needed.

Every story is unique. At Napa Valley Orthopaedic Medical Group, the team listens, supports, and tailors care to your life and goals.

Have you ever wondered if your symptoms might be linked to the SI joint? What questions do you have about this often-hidden source of chronic pain?

Spinal cord stimulation offers hope for retirees seeking a more active, pain-free life with improved quality and sleep. 🌟

Chronic pain can feel like it puts the world on pause. For those dreaming of rounds of golf, long walks, or a quiet night’s rest but held back by chronic low back pain or sacroiliac joint issues, there is a new path forward.

Spinal cord stimulation, offered at Napa Valley Orthopaedic Medical Group by Dr. Weisbein, is redefining pain management. Imagine a specialized device—gently placed under the skin between your vertebrae and spinal cord—sending low levels of electrical impulses to support long-lasting relief. With every small victory, hope grows stronger.

Spinal cord stimulator surgery is often a two-step process. First, a temporary device lets you experience the potential benefits for about a week. If relief is achieved, a permanent stimulator may be placed, and most patients return home the same day.

So, why consider spinal cord stimulation?
- Spinal cord stimulation can also improve your sleep and quality of life, and reduce the need to take pain medicines for relief.
- Many patients report more freedom to enjoy favorite activities again.
- This approach is especially helpful for those with chronic pain after other treatments haven’t worked—including post-surgical pain, chronic low back pain, nerve pain after injuries, pain following spinal surgeries, or conditions like complex regional pain syndrome.

Recovery is generally quick. Most experience only mild soreness near the incision as their body adjusts.

Each patient’s journey is different—but the goal is shared: to reclaim more of what you love. Napa Valley Orthopaedic Medical Group believes in care that inspires, supports, and uplifts you through every step.

Have you or someone you love considered options like spinal cord stimulation for chronic pain? What gave you hope on your journey? Let’s talk below.

Nerve pain is unique because symptoms like tingling or electrical sensations and sensitivity to touch set it apart.

Chronic pain affects so many in our Napa Valley community, but nerve pain (neuropathy) stands out in a very real way. Patients often describe it as sharp, burning, or even feeling like a "jolt"—and this experience can disrupt daily life, sleep, and personal goals. Grateful for everyone seeking real answers!

What truly differentiates nerve pain?
- Tingling or electrical sensations in your back, legs, or arms
- Sensitivity to touch, where even gentle contact brings discomfort
- Numbness or a feeling of weakness
- Loss of balance or a sense that your nerves "aren't working right"

If any of these sound familiar, you are not alone. Neuropathy can show up in different ways, depending on which nerves are affected. At Napa Valley Orthopaedic Medical Group, evaluation always begins with a careful medical history and neurological assessment (reflexes, sensitivity to touch, coordination). Sometimes bloodwork, advanced imaging, or nerve function tests are needed.

Empowered by science and compassion, Dr. Jackie Weisbein and her team create highly personalized care plans. Treatment is designed around you and may include:
- Physical therapy to restore movement
- TENS (transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation)
- Topical treatments and medication (guided by the latest expert evidence)
- Nerve blocks or spinal cord stimulation for tough cases

Strong, evidence-based recommendations support options like tricyclic antidepressants, serotonin-noradrenaline reuptake inhibitors, and pregabalin for neuropathic pain (according to international medical guidelines).

Inspired by every patient who refuses to give up on relief. Your journey matters. Together, we explore new avenues—personalized to your pain, your goals, and your story. 💫

Which symptom has impacted your life most, and what do you wish more people understood about nerve pain?

Radiofrequency ablation offers an effective, safe option for neck pain when compared to facet injections—do you know which is right for you?

We see so many patients feel overwhelmed, frustrated, and searching for hope when chronic pain holds them back. At Napa Valley Orthopaedic Medical Group, Dr. Jackie Weisbein understands that no two pain stories are alike.

There are important choices in pain management—for those suffering with persistent neck pain or cervicogenic headache, both facet joint injections and radiofrequency ablation (RFA) might be suggested at different points in care. The right fit depends on your unique diagnosis and response to treatment.

RFA is a treatment option for neck pain that Dr. Weisbein offers here. Systematic reviews and meta-analyses report that RFA can be effective and safe for managing cervicogenic headaches and neck pain.

Patients who are candidates for RFA often include those experiencing:
- Cervical facet joint pain
- Cervicogenic headache

The strongest step you can take is getting clarity on your options. Our team is dedicated to empowering you, listening to your story, and providing highly personalized care every step of the way. You deserve to reclaim what chronic pain has taken.

Chronic pain doesn’t wait for the perfect moment, and neither should access to care. At Napa Valley Orthopaedic Medical Group, Dr. Jackie Weisbein believes in taking down barriers. That’s why telehealth pain management exists, offering meaningful support when pain feels overwhelming or life moves fast.

What does a virtual pain appointment with Dr. Weisbein look like?

- Comprehensive assessment and support for chronic pain, sacroiliac joint dysfunction, or spinal cord stimulation—all from home.

A few things help telehealth run smoothly. Reliable Internet access and basic technology literacy are important for successful telehealth-based pain management. Limited access or know-how can be common hurdles, but we’re here to help you feel confident every step of the way.

TMJ pain treatment offers hope—customized therapies are helping patients reclaim life from chronic neck pain. 🌟

Chronic pain can leave even the strongest souls feeling isolated and frustrated, especially when it starts with the jaw and radiates down the neck. This story is all too familiar for those suffering with TMJ-related neck pain—a journey filled with detours, setbacks, and the desire to just “get back to normal.”

At Napa Valley Orthopaedic Medical Group, the approach centers around heart and science. Every patient’s story matters. Care begins with customized treatment plans that combine several therapies to relieve your neck pain. Driven by a deep desire to restore quality of life, Dr. Weisbein listens, learns, and crafts a path forward tailored to each person’s needs.

For TMJ pain, evidence favors non-invasive therapies that address the whole person. Patients are empowered and uplifted by options such as:
- Manual therapy (to restore normal range of motion and reduce pain)
- Supervised exercises and stretching for posture and jaw
- Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for guidance and coping tools

Each step is designed to support progress, restore function, and bring relief—without relying on one-size-fits-all solutions. Research highlights that manual therapy and cervical spine stretching may reduce pain and disability for those with myofascial TMJ disorders and headache.

Feeling left behind by your pain? You’re not alone. Adults with TMJ-related pain, especially those facing moderate chronic symptoms, often see benefits from these personalized, multi-therapy methods. Sometimes all it takes is the right plan—and a team that believes in you.

Inspired every day by patients who refuse to let chronic pain define their story. This is resilience. This is hope in action.

Chronic pain holds so many back from living fully. For those struggling with conditions like chronic low back pain or sacroiliac joint dysfunction, even simple pleasures can feel out of reach.

- Decrease extra stress on the spine and joints
- Make it easier to move with confidence
- Enhance outcomes from physical therapy
- Support overall wellness through every step of recovery

Patients under Dr. Weisbein’s care may find that these targeted changes lead to meaningful improvements. Your journey is unique, and every plan is personalized with compassion and science at the core.

Progress can be challenging—but every step counts. Sometimes, a small shift in daily habits starts a ripple effect, supporting comfort and function. At Napa Valley Orthopaedic Medical Group, you’re never alone. This is Pain Management Redefined.

Peripheral vascular disease pain: Could spinal cord stimulation be the breakthrough answer for chronic pain relief?

Living with chronic pain makes every step harder. Many patients with peripheral vascular disease (PVD) know the challenge of pain that just won’t quit, even after trying countless treatments.

Did you know neuropathy symptoms—like pain, numbness, tingling, weakness, or sensitivity to touch—are common for people with vascular conditions? These can take so much from your daily routine, turning small joys into struggles.

Patients often ask: “What can actually help when nothing else has worked?” The answer could be found in advanced therapies like spinal cord stimulation.

Here’s what stands out about this option:
- Spinal cord stimulation is used for chronic pain relief when nonsurgical treatments haven’t worked and you have peripheral vascular disease.
- It’s one of several innovative neuropathy treatment options.
- Care at Napa Valley Orthopaedic Medical Group goes far beyond medications, including physical therapy, topical treatments, and nerve blocks tailored for your needs.

Doctors commonly recommend starting with supervised exercise therapy and a healthy lifestyle—quitting smoking, moving more, and making good dietary choices can be powerful steps. Sometimes, cilostazol is prescribed to support circulation and leg comfort.

If you’re still missing out because of chronic pain, know that hope is still possible. Every patient deserves a personalized approach. DrWeisbein and her team know the frustration of feeling stuck, and their mission is to help people reclaim quality of life.

Whiplash pain treatment is no longer a life sentence—with multimodal care, your recovery journey starts today. 💫

Whiplash can disrupt your life in an instant—road accidents or sudden stops can set pain in motion, leaving so many feeling stuck and searching for hope. Chronic neck pain and stiffness. Activities missed. The question: “Will I ever feel like myself again?”

Honored to support patients who refuse to accept limits. Inspired by strong women and men who show up for their recovery every day. Recovery from whiplash is absolutely possible with the right care and determination.

Our approach starts with a holistic path. Support, science, and empowerment from day one.

- Physical therapy is often one of the first and most important treatments for whiplash.
- Therapists guide patients to restore motion, improve posture, strengthen neck muscles, and reduce inflammation.
- Spinal injections are recommended when conservative treatments like medication, physical therapy, or lifestyle modifications fail to alleviate debilitating back or neck pain. These injections deliver medication directly into the affected area of the spine.
- A tailored plan may include education, stress management, and cognition-targeted exercise to help guide recovery.

The result? Relief can happen—often with minimal downtime. Many patients find their quality of life improving, energy returning, and optimism renewed. Hope returned.

At Napa Valley Orthopaedic Medical Group, Dr. Weisbein’s team leads with compassion, advanced interventional tools, and dedication. Every patient’s story matters.

Post surgical pain management now includes innovative interventional options like spinal cord stimulation and the Intracept procedure. đź’«

Chronic pain after surgery can feel overwhelming. Many patients express frustration when standard pain relief methods just don’t deliver the results they hope for. At Napa Valley Orthopaedic Medical Group, Dr. Jackie Weisbein, DO offers advanced solutions tailored to each unique story. Empowered care. Thoughtful listening.

Spinal cord stimulation is changing lives for those living with post-surgical pain. This technique involves implanting a device beneath the skin that sends electrical impulses into the spinal cord. The goal: chronic pain relief. Spinal cord stimulators help change how the brain senses pain, offering hope when nonsurgical approaches haven’t worked.

Who might benefit?
Patients who haven’t found relief from standard treatments and still live with chronic pain after surgery may be good candidates for spinal cord stimulation.

The Intracept procedure is another evidence-based, minimally invasive option for certain types of chronic low back pain. During this outpatient procedure, radiofrequency heat is used to ablate (or target) the basivertebral nerve, which can be a key source of back pain. Lasting pain relief is the aim. Most people finish the procedure in 60 to 90 minutes and can manage mild side effects, like soreness or swelling, with over-the-counter medications.

Benefits of these interventional procedures may include:
- Improved sleep and daily function
- Reduced need for pain medications
- Restoration of quality of life
- Ongoing support and recovery guidance

Personalized, patient-centered care defines Napa Valley Orthopaedic Medical Group. Dr. Weisbein knows each pain journey is unique. Her goal: to support every patient in reclaiming what's been lost to pain.
