Chronic back pain. A shoulder that never fully recovered. Nerve pain that flares without warning. If you have been living with it, you know the routine: another prescription, another temporary fix, and the pain still there underneath. Pain management at Active Health starts somewhere else: with a diagnosis of what is generating the pain, and a plan that resolves it.
What pain management means here
Our pain control clinic is non-surgical and non-opioid by design. Instead of managing pain indefinitely, we treat the mechanical, neurological, and inflammatory drivers behind it: disc compression, joint degeneration, nerve irritation, scar tissue, and the movement patterns that keep re-loading the injury.
That means your plan is built by a team, not a single provider: physicians, physical therapists, and rehabilitation specialists working from the same diagnostics and the same goal.
Pain is a signal, not a diagnosis. Our job is to find what is sending it.
Our four-step approach
Every plan is personal. The process behind it never changes.
Diagnostic assessment
Movement screening, orthopedic and neurological testing, imaging review, and a full history of how the pain behaves through your day.
Pain source identification
We separate the site of the pain from its source. Referred pain, compensation patterns, and nerve involvement all change the treatment.
Layered treatment plan
Decompression, shockwave, manual therapy, and regenerative options are combined and sequenced: relief first, then structural correction.
Rebuild and protect
Strength, mobility, and postural work so the pain does not return once treatment ends. This is the step most pain clinics skip.
Treatments we use
Your plan draws on the modalities that match your diagnosis, rarely just one.
Spinal decompression
Non-surgical traction that relieves pressure on discs and nerve roots, for sciatica, herniation, and stenosis.
Shockwave & Omniwave
Acoustic wave therapy that breaks down scar tissue and stimulates blood flow in stubborn tendon and soft-tissue pain.
Regenerative injections
PRP and umbilical cord therapies that support repair in degenerated joints and chronic tendon injuries.
Manual & ART therapy
Hands-on soft tissue work and Active Release Techniques to free restricted muscle, fascia, and entrapped nerves.
Conditions we treat
Patients come to our pain control clinic for:
Your first visit
Plan on about an hour. We take a full history, test how your body moves and loads, review any imaging you bring, and locate the structures reproducing your pain. You leave the same day with a written plan: what we found, what we recommend, how long it should take, and what it costs.
No referral is required. If your case needs care we do not provide, we will tell you that at the first visit rather than the tenth.
Why choose Active Health
We are an integrated health and wellness clinic serving Jacksonville, San Jose, Deerwood, and Ortega. Most of our pain patients arrive after years of care that treated the symptom and never asked why it kept coming back.
