Can you recommend a Pain Management Clinic near Porterville, Bakersfield, Visalia or Fresno,CA

Topics:chronic back pain

I have had 3 back operations. One for a herniated disc. One to repair a spinal leak from that operation. The last one was for spinal stenosis. I have had many epidural injections. These provide some temporary relief. I have had physical therapy & do my exercises daily.

I still have pain almost all the time. It is very difficult to deal with this chronic pain.

I would like to try some alternatives- eg neurostimulation, acupuncture, biofeed back, or others that have been proven effective.

Thank you.
