What are the Common Symptoms & Root Causes of Lower back and sI pain?
- Symptoms: Deep lower back aches, sharp pain when twisting, bending, or lifting, burning/shooting pain traveling down the leg (sciatica), numbness or weakness, stiffness after prolonged sitting, and difficulty standing upright.
- Causes: Lumbar disc herniations, degenerative disc disease, lumbar facet joint arthritis, sacroiliac (SI) joint dysfunction, spinal stenosis, and poor core/pelvic biomechanics.
When should i seek lower back care?
- Radiating Leg Pain: You have lower back pain radiating into your buttock, hip, thigh, or lower leg.
- Mobility Restrictions: You experience persistent stiffness or pain that makes standing, walking, lifting, or sports difficult.
- Clear Non-Surgical Plan: You want an accurate diagnosis and a targeted interventional plan to avoid spinal surgery.

Non-Surgical Lower Back Pain & Sciatica Care
Precision Relief for Lumbar Spine & SI Joint Pain
Lower back pain is a leading cause of restricted activity, missed work, and interrupted athletics. Lumbar pain can originate from herniated discs, arthritic facet joints, sacroiliac (SI) joint dysfunction, or compressed spinal nerves (sciatica). Non-surgical spine care accurately isolates the exact pain generator to deliver targeted interventional procedures and functional rehabilitation that get you moving freely again.
Primary Diagnoses & Interventional Solutions
Our Salt Lake Valley clinic provides targeted, non-surgical interventional spine care:
- Lumbar Radiculopathy & Sciatica (Epidural Steroid Injections): Precision image-guided lumbar epidural steroid injections (ESI) delivered under guidance to calm nerve root inflammation and relieve radiating leg pain.
- Lumbar Facet Joint Pain (Radiofrequency Ablation): Diagnostic medial branch blocks followed by Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) to thermally deactivate pain-sensing nerves in arthritic lumbar facet joints for long-lasting relief.
- Sacroiliac (SI) Joint Dysfunction: Targeted image-guided SI joint injections to address localized lower back and upper buttock pain.
- Diagnostic Precision: Comprehensive physical exams and MRI reviews to differentiate true disc/nerve pathology from joint or muscular pain generators.
- Core & Pelvic Stabilization: Customized physical therapy strategies to rebuild deep core strength, correct movement flaws, and protect your lower back during sport, work, and daily life.
Don't wait for pain to dictate your lifestyle.

Endurance Athlete Medicine
Performance & Overuse Care for Runners, Cyclists, and Triathletes
Endurance injuries stem from repetitive microtrauma, rapid training load spikes, and subtle biomechanical inefficiencies. Unlike contact trauma, endurance conditions require addressing the underlying root cause of mechanical breakdown so you can train consistently without chronic pain.
Diagnostic & Treatment Solutions
We partner with local runners, cyclists, and triathletes to keep them training safely:
- High-Resolution Ultrasound: Detecting early tendon degeneration, bursitis, and fluid collection before a partial tear occurs.
- Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy: Stimulating natural healing in chronic, stubborn tendinopathies without requiring months of complete rest.
- Load Management Guidance: Helping you adjust training volume safely while incorporating cross-training to preserve aerobic cardiovascular fitness.
Don't wait for pain to dictate your lifestyle.
What are the Common Symptoms & Root Causes of Overuse Injuries?
- Symptoms: Aching pain during long runs or rides, persistent tendon stiffness, focal bone tenderness, chronic muscle tightness, and declining performance.
- Causes: Rapid mileage or elevation spikes, improper bike fit or footwear, glute/core weakness, and high-volume training on steep terrain across the Wasatch region.
When should i seek Endurance care?
- Performance Limits: You experience recurring pain limiting your running mileage, cycling wattage, or swimming endurance.
- Race Preparation: You are training for an upcoming marathon, ultra, or triathlon and need to resolve nagging overuse pain.
- Recurrent Setbacks: You suffer from the same seasonal overuse injuries year after year.
