Reduce Pain Without Medication
World Class Therapy Providing You Lasting Relief
As we get older, we all experience the occasional ache or pain. Sometimes it happens after an intense workout session. Other times, we wake up in the morning and have achy knees for no discernable reason. These pains, usually referred to as acute pains, are common and often dissipate.
Sciatica and lower back pain, on the other hand, is a very different beast. It's experienced by 40% of Americans at some point in their lives. Suffering from sciatica and lower back pain can be debilitating and life-altering.
Sciatica and lower back pain are more than just physical - they're also stressful, bothersome, and all-encompassing. They cause normal men and women to become reclusive, depressed, and unable to enjoy life's pleasures. If you're suffering from sciatica or lower back pain, you might feel like all hope is lost. But the doctors and specialists at Texas Nerve and Spine are here to tell you that you do not have to continue to suffer.
In fact, sciatica and lower back pain relief in Houston, TX, is more achievable than you might think, and it doesn't have to involve harmful surgeries or addictive pain medications.

As a family-owned and operated institution, that's just the way we do business. While some spine and nerve pain clinics focus solely on monetary transactions and ROI, we prefer to put our patients' needs first before anything else. And that, in a nutshell, is what sets Texas Nerve and Spine apart from all the others.
We supplement our patient-first philosophy with innovative sciatica and lower back pain therapies. Our therapies restore our patients' health while correcting the underlying causes of their spine and nerve issues without relying on damaging pharmaceutical drugs or expensive, invasive surgeries.

Sciatica and lower back pain can cause a domino effect within your body. It starts with inflammation, which leads to decreased blood supply. This reduced blood supply results in a lack of oxygen. When your body doesn't get enough oxygen, it loses crucial nutrients that your body needs. This progressive effect often leads to more long-term problems.

This specialized machine trains your muscles, brain, and nerves to work together, which supports your body's healing processes.

When your motor functions are limited or non-existent due to sciatica and lower back pain, it can ruin your life. You lose the ability to be independent - one of the hallmarks of being human. Fortunately, with motor function re-training at Texas Nerve and Spine, patients suffering have a light at the end of the tunnel.

Our program uses state-of-the-art technology to apply acute, high-velocity vibration directly to the affected tissue to provide the patient with the environment necessary to increase mobility which, over time, can exponentially reduce pain.
Benefits of this type of therapy include:

Suppose you're searching for a safe, effective way to deal with a painful spine issue like sciatica or lower back pain. In that case, neuro impulse therapy is a great pain therapy in City, State. Unlike common chiropractic treatments, this advanced therapy does not involve any "cracking" or significant adjustments.
Neuro Impulse Therapy works by using very specific impulses directed at the area causing pain. These targeted impulses send a signal to your body so that it can begin healing and repairing your body naturally. Benefits of this therapy include:
Peripheral neuropathy occurs when there is a lack of blood flow to the nerves in areas like your feet and hands. When these nerves are devoid of blood, they begin to decay and degenerate because they don't have enough oxygen or nutrients. Eventually, the nerves in your body shrivel up, causing pain, numbness, balance problems, and other painful symptoms.
Our Brain to Body program works wonders for neuropathy issues like these by using state-of-the-art technology like laser therapy and personalized, strategic plans of action created around our patient's needs. If you're looking for both short and long-term pain relief from peripheral neuropathy, this could be the solution you need.
Spinal conditions range in severity from barely noticeable to absolutely crippling. To get to the bottom of your spine conditions, our team uses X-Rays to pinpoint the location of your spine's disease. From there, we craft a custom rehabilitation program that addresses the underlying causes of your spine pain. Often, part of that therapy includes spinal decompression.
Spinal decompression works by gently stretching the spine. When the spine is stretched, it changes its position. This change relieves pressure off the discs in your spine, which act as cushions in your back. By creating negative pressure, herniated and bulging discs retract, giving the nerves and structures in your back relief. This relief sends nutrient-rich fluids and oxygen to the discs in your back so they can heal properly.
Sciatica and lower back pain can be debilitating. But they do not have to be permanent. Your journey to a pain-free life starts with a simple four-step process at Texas Nerve and Spine:

A fire at LyondellBasell's Pasadena chemical plant, with flames visible for miles, sparked a large emergency response but posed no threat to residents.
LA PORTE, Texas — A fire broke out at a LyondellBasell chemical plant near Pasadena Thursday night, sending thick smoke and flames into the air and prompting a large emergency response from multiple agencies. No injuries were reported.
The fire was reported around 9 p.m. at LyondellBasell's Bayport Choate site, a sprawling chemical complex located at 10801 Choate Road in Pasadena. The Harris County Fire Marshal's Office identified the facility as a Chemical Process Unit at Lyondell BayPort and confirmed that everyone present at the time of the fire was accounted for.
Officials said the fire burned for several hours overnight, with flames and thick smoke visible from miles away.
The La Porte Office of Emergency Management said the main fire was fully extinguished early Friday morning. Officials said the scene was transitioned back to LyondellBasell between about 2 a.m. and 3 a.m., and city emergency crews returned to service around 2 a.m.
Activity in and around the facility may continue as the company manages the incident and monitors conditions at the site.
The company released the following statement on Friday morning:
"As of the early hours of March 13, we can confirm the fire occurred at LyondellBasell’s Bayport Choate site has been contained. In line with our protocol, our on-site firefighting and incident response team was activated. There were no injuries associated with this incident. All personnel are safe and accounted for and no off-site impact is expected. There is no need for action by the community.
"All appropriate agencies have been notified. The safety of our employees and our neighbors remain our priority as response efforts continue. We thank our first responders for their effort in addressing the incident."
The Harris County Fire Marshal’s Office said the incident was caused by a process upset at the facility. Officials said the upset led to the release of a flammable product, which was ignited by the pilot light of a flaring operation.
The La Porte Office of Emergency Management previously said residents did not need to take any action. No evacuations or shelter-in-place orders were issued.
In a statement Thursday night, Harris County Judge Lina Hidalgo said first responders worked to close a valve releasing a mixture of chemicals during the fire. Hidalgo said the chemicals burning off were not posing a threat to the surrounding community.
Harris County Pollution Control has been monitoring air quality around the facility and said no actionable readings had been detected. According to Hidalgo, the agency deployed seven monitoring stations around the perimeter of the plant to conduct continuous air monitoring during the response.
LyondellBasell released a statement after the fire broke out.
"At approximately 9 p.m. CT on Thursday, March 12, a fire was reported at LyondellBasell's Bayport Choate site. Our emergency response personnel have been activated and we have notified appropriate authorities. Our primary focus is the safety of our workers, surrounding community and environment. We will provide an update when we know more."
At 10:15 p.m., the company posted an update through the Community Awareness Emergency Response, or CAER, notification system, describing the situation as an "operational upset."
"We are experiencing an operational upset at the LyondellBasell Bayport Choate site, 10801 Choate Rd., Pasadena, TX 77507. During this time, the community may hear emergency sirens or rumbling noises and see emergency vehicles responding, as well as bright flames or smoke. Area law enforcement and fire departments will issue any public notice if warranted. We are working quickly to resolve the issue and will continue to post updates on this CAER line during the event. Questions can be directed to askbayport@lyb.com."
Multiple agencies responded to the scene, including the La Porte Fire Department, Pasadena Fire Department, Channel Industries Mutual Aid, Harris County HAZMAT, Harris County Pollution Control and Harris County OEM. The Harris County Fire Marshal's Office dispatched a hazmat team as well.
The Bayport Choate site produces a range of industrial chemicals, including propylene oxide, propylene glycol and tertiary butyl alcohol, which are used in everyday products such as paint, furniture, car parts, gasoline, shampoo and antifreeze.
