The basics

SI joint pain — do you need surgery?

The sacroiliac (SI) joint is a frequently missed source of one-sided low-back and buttock pain. Because it's often mistaken for a disc problem, people sometimes head toward the wrong treatment. SI joint dysfunction and inflammation usually respond to non-surgical, image-guided care — the honest, in-person assessment is what pins down the real source.

Straight answers

SI joint pain questions people ask

How do I know if it's my SI joint? +
SI joint pain is often one-sided, low, and near the belt line or buttock. An in-person exam and imaging review help distinguish it from a disc or hip problem — that's exactly what the free consultation is for.
Can SI joint pain be treated without surgery? +
Usually, yes. Most SI joint pain responds to non-surgical, image-guided care. Surgical fusion is reserved for specific, less common situations.
What will it cost? +
The consultation is always free, and it's $0 if there's no medical need. Treatment, if you're a candidate, is self-pay and quoted only after the physician reviews your case.
Do you take insurance? +
These services are generally self-pay, as insurance typically doesn't cover them. We'll walk you through the costs during your free consultation.
