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 Pearland, TX, is more achievable than you might think, and it doesn't have to involve harmful surgeries or addictive pain medications.
Contact UsAt our nerve and spine clinic in Texas, we have a simple philosophy: Treat every patient the same way that you would treat your parent, spouse, or child if they were patients at Texas Nerve and Spine. 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.
It all starts with our unique Brain to Body system - a cutting-edge approach developed specifically for people with chronic pain and nerve diseases. This system also helps treat patients suffering from a wide range of conditions, including:

To reverse sciatica and lower back pain, the areas that have become weak due to disease or injury must be strengthened. This includes your brain, nerves, muscles, blood vessels, and cells. Our experts here at Texas Nerve and Spine developed the most advanced pain and nerve therapy system to do all of this and more, and we call it the Brain to Body System.
Our Brain to Body System helps restore your health and corrects the causes of your problems. Unlike treatments from other nerve and spine clinics, our system provides long-term relief without relying on invasive surgeries or dangerously addictive pharmaceutical medications.
To understand how our Brain to Body System solves sciatica, lower back pain, and other similar conditions, you need a basic knowledge of the conditions themselves. That way, you can understand why so many who suffer from them rarely improve.
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.
Our Brain to Body System is central to our approach to sciatica and lower back pain relief in Pearland, TX. By following the Brain to Body system, we can provide several services to patients suffering from sciatica and lower back pain.
Here's a fact you might not know: Breathing in higher levels of oxygen than you normally take in actually helps improve your health. Also called EWOT, exercising with oxygen is a technique that increases oxygen circulation at a much more rapid pace than oxygen therapy alone.
At Texas Nerve and Spine, our doctors use the NuStep Recumbent Cross Trainer to help achieve the aforementioned benefits. This specialized machine trains your muscles, brain, and nerves to work together, which supports your body's healing processes. While using the NuStep Recumbent Cross Trainer, patients are hooked up to an oxygen generator to enjoy the benefits of EWOT and reach their sciatica and lower back pain relief goals.

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.

Myofascial Release therapy gives patients sciatica and lower back pain relief in Pearland, TX, and boosts joint mobility by loosening up restricted, tight muscles. Though there are similarities to traditional massages, myofascial release therapy focuses on soft tissues and the muscular system in your body to relieve tension and stress on muscles.

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.

After facing lengthy construction delays due to supply chain issues, construction has started again for a kindergarten through 8th grade charter school in Pearland.
International Leadership of Texas’ Pearland location is one of seven Houston area campuses. ILTexas provides students an opportunity to learn English, Spanish and Mandarin Chinese languages along with its leadership-driven curriculum through physical fitness and dedicated leadership classes.

The $42 million school, located at 2468 Broadway St., is expecting to welcome over 1,400 students in August 2024, according to school officials.

Charter schools continue to be a topic of contention across the state. Supporters point to benefits of public-school alternatives for at-risk students, while opponents say public schools are losing resources and students to charters. In Harris County, public-school enrollment dropped during the pandemic. However, non-charter school enrollment grew in most other Houston area counties, including Brazoria, which had fewer than 10 charter schools as of March 2023, the Chronicle reports.
"We don't see ourselves in competition with anybody else," said Caitlin Madison, executive director of communications, marketing and public relations for ILTexas. "We just are another option, another alternative for families to be able to send their kids to, and we have a lot of unique opportunities for families."
The charter school is funded through the state of Texas and charitable donations but unlike independent school districts, it doesn't receive additional funding from local taxes. Charter schools receive roughly $11,000 per student, based on their average daily attendance.
Applications for the 2024-25 school year will open in November with the application review process beginning in February based on a first-come, first-served lottery system. Students who are accepted may continue to the ILTexas Windmill Lakes-Orem High School, 9901 Windmill Lakes Blvd. in Houston.

“With some of the details being up in the air right now, I don’t know if I necessarily want to take a position for or against at this time,” said Hernandez.
Charles River Laboratories bought more than 500 acres of land in Brazoria County in March to open a facility to house more than 43,000 monkeys, the Wall Street Journal reported.
The Brazoria County Commission unanimously passed a resolution to oppose the Charles River Laboratories’ facility at a Nov. 28 meeting.
Charles River Laboratories, which conducts pharmaceutical research, did not address questions regarding the cost and purchase of the facility or community pushback.
An emailed statement from the company recapped a Dec. 13 meeting with Brazoria County officials and said those officials presented new information on storm water management and drainage issues. Charles River has placed future permitting requests and other actions at the site on hold while design and engineering firms reassess the suitability of the site, a process that could take months, according to the statement.
