Is your pain physical, emotional, or both? (Hint: It’s usually both.)

For years, patients in the South Bay have been told to drive to one clinic for their back pain and a completely different office for their depression or anxiety. 🚗💨

But science tells us that Chronic Pain and Mental Health are not separate islands. They are physically interconnected in the brain. 🧠

🔄 The Cycle is Real: When you are in pain, your stress levels rise. When you are stressed, your pain threshold drops. It becomes a loop that is incredibly hard to break with medication alone.

At Pacific Pain & Wellness Group in Torrance, we don’t force you to choose between a pain doctor and a psychiatrist.

👨‍⚕️ Meet Dr. Kartik Ananth: As one of the few physicians in the nation Double Board-Certified in both Pain Management AND Psychiatry, Dr. Ananth leads our team in treating the "Whole Person."

Whether it’s through interventional treatments, Ketamine Infusion Therapy, or TMS, we treat the source—not just the symptom.

"I've been a patient of Dr. Ananth and his team for over two years. I'm constantly impressed with their professionalism, knowledge and empathy. Dr. Ananth and his team are all highly skilled and caring. At PPWG I'm treated as a patient, not a number - that's an environment that's hard to find these days. I'm very happy that I did." - Steve S.

In an age where face-to-face patient care is virtually non-existent, this level of attentive and personal care and concern is extraordinary.'' - Neil I.
