Pain Medicine anesthesiology credentials drive Functional Restoration San Diego at 106 Thorn St on the Hillcrest-Bankers Hill edge, an integrative chronic pain clinic combining medical pain management with on-site physical therapy and movement retraining. Interventional and medication-based pain protocols - covering opioid tapering, adjuvant therapy for neuropathic pain, myofascial pain syndrome, and complex regional pain syndrome - pair with structural surgical consults sent to orthopedic surgery at Dr. Robert S. Meyer, MD when imaging confirms a correctable surgical lesion. Spanish-language patient visits are standard, and the Functional Restoration Program model layers cognitive-behavioral pain coping strategies onto the medical and physical therapy components. Long-term strengthening protocols that extend beyond the clinic's in-house PT capacity hand off to Spine & Sport Physical Therapy - Hillcrest, 5th Ave. for sport-specific return-to-activity progressions. Home exercise program prescription, movement instruction, and individualized pacing plans complete the outpatient toolkit. The most demanding cases combine failed back surgery syndrome, chronic opioid dependency, and concurrent fibromyalgia or complex regional pain syndrome requiring multi-disciplinary coordination across pain, PT, and behavioral health.
