PIT Treatment
If you’re experiencing persistent pain that hasn’t responded well to traditional treatments—or if your scans show “nothing wrong” but you still feel pain—PIT may be the missing piece. It’s especially ideal for those seeking drug-free, non-surgical relief.
What Is PIT Treatment?
Fast, Targeted Relief Without Surgery
Perineural Injection Treatment (PIT) is a gentle, non-surgical procedure designed to relieve chronic pain caused by inflamed or irritated nerves just beneath the skin. These superficial nerves, called cutaneous nerves, can become sensitized due to injury, repetitive use, or underlying inflammation—even when diagnostic imaging like MRIs or X-rays appear normal.
Conditions PIT Can Treat
PIT is highly effective for a wide range of pain types—especially those that feel:
- Burning
- Tingling or “pins and needles”
- Achy or sore
- Painful to the touch or with movement
Common conditions we treat with PIT include:
- Chronic neck or back pain
- Sciatica or leg nerve pain
- Carpal tunnel and other wrist/hand conditions
- Post-surgical or post-injury nerve pain
- Headaches and migraines with nerve involvement
- Plantar fasciitis and heel pain
- Numbness or tingling from nerve compression
- Joint pain in the knees, ankles, elbows, or shoulders
Even if previous imaging tests show “nothing wrong,” PIT can still help if your nerves are irritated.
How PIT Treatment Works
Using a tiny needle, we inject a solution of dextrose (a type of sugar water) just under the skin along the path of the affected nerves. This simple solution works in powerful ways:
- Calms irritated nerves
- Reduces localized inflammation
- Promotes natural nerve healing
- Relieves pain and discomfort—often immediately
The procedure is virtually painless for most patients and takes only a few minutes. Many report feeling relief within minutes after their first treatment.
Safety and Benefits
PIT is a safe, natural alternative to steroids, painkillers, or invasive procedures. Here’s why patients choose it:
- No opioids, steroids, or harsh medications
- Minimal to no downtime
- Targets the root cause of pain—not just the symptoms
- Long-lasting relief using the body’s own healing response
Treatment Plan: What to Expect
While many patients feel improvement after just one treatment, we typically recommend a series of 3 to 6 sessions, spaced about one week apart, for optimal and lasting results.
Each session is quick, well-tolerated, and requires no recovery time. You can return to your normal routine immediately.
