The WVU Medicine Center for Integrative Pain Management strives to treat the whole person, not just the physical symptoms of pain. Our trained providers take the time to figure out the underlying causes of your pain and develop an integrative and individualized plan to target the affected area, to provide relief from pain, and improve your quality of life.
Our integrative approach combines the latest medical treatments with individual and group behavioral therapy, nutritional counseling with a registered dietitian, movement therapy with an exercise physiologist, and natural treatments like acupuncture, massage therapy, and chiropractic care.
The Center for Integrative Pain Management is now offering Nevro HFX™ for painful diabetic neuropathy (PDN) performed by pain management specialists Richard Vaglienti, MD, and Rolando Garcia, PA-C. Proven to be the most effective treatment for PDN, it is the only spinal cord stimulation system approved by the FDA with a specific indication for PDN. This minimally invasive procedure allows patients to go home the same day.
