Facet Blocks

About

A facet block is a diagnostic procedure performed on the facet joints in the spine to locate the origin of the patient’s arthritic pain and are performed under fluoroscopic guidance to properly treat that pain.

How It Helps

While a facet block is typically used to diagnosis the amount of pain someone is experiencing, it can also be helpful as a numbing medication. Specific types of “blocks” can help reduce inflammation.
