Pain Management

At ROI Hospital, our pain management program provides specialized rehabilitation treatment designed to accurately identify the source of pain caused by musculoskeletal or neurological conditions and deliver targeted, patient-specific therapy.

Through detailed clinical assessment—including visual inspection, palpation, medical history, and diagnostic testing—we identify the underlying pain mechanism and tissue involvement. Based on this evaluation, we combine therapeutic modalities such as electrotherapy, phototherapy, extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT), and orthopedic manual therapy to reduce pain and restore function.

Our goal is to relieve inflammation, reduce muscle tension, calm nerve hypersensitivity, and support faster recovery, helping patients return to daily life with greater comfort and confidence.
