The thousands of patients we’ve treated in that time have helped us to create a well-established plan for the treatment of pain. The Pentagon, as we like to call it, is a five point treatment plan that includes: Sleep, Psychology, Movement Modalities, Medications and Interventions.  For the most part, our role as physicians is to educate and treat our patients based on this multidimensional treatment model.  More specifically though, it is through this process that we are able to modify, modulate and disrupt the transmission of a pain signal to the brain.
