Welcome - Pain Management Jacksonville Florida
Welcome to Sunshine Spine & Pain, PA, Jacksonville Florida's premiere Spine & Pain treatment center. Sunshine Spine & Pain was formed in 2005 by Dr. Arkam Rehman who used his training and experience to offer the best quality clinical care available to patients in the North Florida area. Now with a team of about 20 staff members and clinical providers and a network of clinics spread all over Jacksonville, we are busy serving the community needs to help people eliminate or manage their ongoing spine and general musculo-skeletal pain problems. With a team of three compassionate Physicians, a Nurse Practitioner, and a Physician Assistant specializing in all aspects of spine care, we have been offering the residents of Florida and beyond, access to most modern minimally invasive spine care including but not limited to specialized targeted spinal injections to advanced nerve Radiofrequency procedures, to the most modern Cool radiofrequency procedure for treating sacro-illiac joint injuries and other procedures such as Radiofrequency treatment of the degenerative painful discs done via needles (Disc BIACUPLASTY PROCEDURE), The IDET (INTRA-DISCAL ELECTROTHERMAL ANNULOPLASTY) procedure, and LASER DISC DECOMPRESION procedure (ANNULOPLASTY). We also do SPINAL CORD STIMULATOR trials for patients where that is considered to be the indicated intervention thus offerring a wide range of services to the patients.
Where surgery is indicated, we work with teams of experienced Orthopedic and Neuro-Spine surgeons in Jacksonville area where we can coordinate care so that if the patient is deemed surgical, we can refer them to the best fellowship trained and experienced spine surgeons with a proven track record who use the MINIMALLY INVASIVE approach, wherever thats possible, to do what we refer to in simple lay terms as ARTHROSCOPIC DISC DECOMPRESSIONS with Microscopes and Metryx Tube System thus giving superior results and faster recovery.

We also have the most advanced regular and advanced Cool Radiofrequency equipment that has helped revolutionize the non surgical care of sacroilliac injuries such as from Auto Accidents and other spine related injuries. We use advanced Neurodiagnostic testing with EMG's and Nerve Conduction Studies (NCV's) in house and with local neurologists to help localized if a single nerve is causing the SCIATICA where multiple disc herniations etc are present to do the most focused injections thus simplifying spine care and avoiding the shot gun therapy used blindly in many other clinics thus giving us excellent outcomes with least invasive approach.
