She has a huge armamentarium of modalities and approaches for evidence-based treatment which give best results for the patients. Few of the various pain management modalities she specializes in for adequate acute and chronic pain redressal include-

• Medications- opioids, cannabinoids and adjuvants
• MIPSI- Minimally invasive pain and spine interventions- both ultrasound-guided and fluoroscopy- guided
• Dry and wet needling- A modality extremely beneficial in handling myofascial pain, scar pain, post- operative pain and rehabilitation, post radiation pain and contractures, post- mastectomy pain, CRPS … to name a few. These conditions are very difficult to be managed with medications and conventional pain interventions alone.
