Finally, Relief for Chronic Low Back Pain: Dr. Neilson Tran Now Offering the Intracept® Procedure
Dr. Neilson Tran now offers the Intracept® Procedure—a minimally invasive, outpatient treatment that targets the basivertebral nerve, a known source of vertebrogenic pain.

What it Does:

This minimally invasive procedure targets the basivertebral nerve, a key contributor to pain linked with spinal endplate damage. Using advanced imaging, Dr. Tran guides a small probe into the vertebra and applies radiofrequency energy to interrupt pain signals—without removing tissue, inserting implants, or altering spinal stability.

Benefits of the Intracept® Procedure

Patients choose Intracept not only for its effectiveness, but also for the many advantages it offers:

• Direct, targeted relief from vertebrogenic pain
• Minimally invasive technique with small incisions
• Faster recovery time and no overnight hospital stay
• No need for implants or hardware
• Long-lasting results—some patients report relief lasting over five years
• Reduced reliance on opioids or repeat injections
  
  

Who Is a Candidate?

You may be a candidate for the Intracept® Procedure if:

• You have experienced chronic low back pain for six months or longer
• Conservative treatments such as therapy, medications, or injections have not provided relief
• Your MRI shows signs of vertebral endplate damage (Modic Type 1 or Type 2 changes)

Dr. Neilson Tran will evaluate your case and determine whether this innovative treatment is appropriate for you.
