Welcome to our practice
Regency Pain & Therapy Institute is an interventional pain management, neuromusculoskeletal medicine, sports medicine and osteopathic manipulative medicine practice located in the Dallas-Fort Worth, TX area.
The practice recently completed construction on a beautiful new 20,000 square-foot, state-of-the-art facility, conveniently located in the heart of Mansfield. The larger facility allows for all services to be under one roof and provides patients with easy access and convenient parking, contemporary design and function, well-appointed waiting areas, large spacious exam rooms; and state-of-the-art amenities; that include a high-end physical therapy facility, a new procedure suite that will accommodate less invasive procedures, a large multi-functional classroom, and the nationally recognized Pritikin Intensive Cardiac Rehab (ICR) program.
PAIN MANAGEMENT
Regency Pain & Therapy Institute offers cutting-edge pain management techniques and technology, with the patient at the center of everything we do. The focus is always on decreasing a patient’s pain while increasing their productivity, minimizing medication use, maximizing physical activity, and improving quality of life. You will also experience doctors who strive to be as conservative as possible and only progress to more interventional treatments, as needed.
The team at Regency Pain & Therapy Institute takes a whole-body approach to patient care. Instead of focusing on treating a few symptoms, the doctors at Regency Pain & Therapy Institute focus on diagnosing your pain and finding the best, most meaningful way to reduce your pain and restore function. Some of the conditions they routinely treat include chronic pain, fibromyalgia, sciatica, neck and back pain, abdominal pain, auto accident injuries, scoliosis, and neuropathy.
PHYSICAL THERAPY
A frequently used conservative approach to treating pain is Physical Therapy. Physical therapy is a non-invasive discipline that helps individuals develop, maintain and restore maximum body movement and physical function. Physical therapy can help patients recover from an injury, relieve pain, prevent future injury or deal with a chronic condition. It can be applied at any age or stage of life.
The ultimate goal of physical therapy is to improve health and quality of life. The physical therapists at Regency Pain & Therapy Institute have undergone years of highly specialized training so they can properly evaluate and assess your physical limitations and then design an exercise program that improves your overall function and health. The team uses a variety of techniques to restore function; including active, passive and strengthening exercises.
No matter what type of pain you’re experiencing, the doctors and therapists at Regency Pain & Therapy Institute can help and want to work with you. To schedule an appointment, please call the Regency office at 817-419-6111.
