AIKYA Pain and Spine Centre is a back pain treatment centre in Bangalore where a FIPP (USA) certified back pain specialist confirms the cause of your pain first, then treats it with the least invasive option that works: physiotherapy, image-guided injections, radiofrequency ablation and, for the few who need it, endoscopic back surgery. Most procedures are day-care with same-day discharge at our Marathahalli centre.
Our coordinator handles the rest on the call.
The spine is a column of 33 vertebrae separated by shock-absorbing discs, linked by facet joints and ligaments, and threaded with the spinal cord and nerve roots. Acute and chronic back pain start when one of these structures is strained, worn, inflamed or compressed, which is why back pain treatment at AIKYA begins by identifying which one.
AIKYA is a back pain clinic in Bangalore that treats every type of back pain by location, upper, mid and lower, and every condition behind it, from acute muscle strain and disc herniation to chronic facet, sacroiliac and tailbone pain, using non-surgical and minimally invasive back pain treatment first. Lower back pain is by far the most common, because the lumbar spine carries the most load.
Upper back pain treatment at AIKYA targets pain between the shoulder blades and the base of the neck, usually from posture, prolonged desk work, rib-joint irritation or muscle strain. It is rarely nerve-related.

Mid back pain is thoracic pain through the rib cage region, from spondylosis, facet irritation or, in older adults, an osteoporotic compression fracture. Examination tells which, and the treatment follows.
Facet injections · rehabilitation · vertebroplasty
Lower back pain treatment in Bangalore starts with finding whether a muscle, disc, facet joint or sacroiliac joint is responsible, then treating that structure directly. It is the most common reason patients come to AIKYA.
Physiotherapy · image-guided injections · RFA
Tailbone pain after a fall, prolonged sitting or childbirth responds to targeted coccyx injections and ganglion impar blocks when simple measures fail.

One-sided pain low in the back or buttock, worse on stairs or getting out of a car, is confirmed with a diagnostic block and treated with SI joint injections or cooled radiofrequency.

A deep buttock muscle irritating the sciatic nerve mimics disc sciatica. Ultrasound-guided piriformis injection and targeted stretching settle it without surgery.
Ultrasound-guided injection · physiotherapy
A slipped disc pressing on a nerve causes back pain with leg pain. Transforaminal epidural injections relieve most cases; endoscopic discectomy is reserved for those that do not settle.

Tight muscle bands with trigger points cause persistent aching and referred pain. Dry needling, trigger point injections and stretching release them.

Sciatica treatment targets the compressed nerve root sending pain down the leg, usually with a transforaminal epidural injection under C-arm guidance.
Transforaminal epidural · nerve root blockSudden severe back pain in older adults from a collapsed vertebra. Vertebroplasty stabilises the bone as a day-care procedure when pain persists.
VertebroplastyAIKYA specialises in diagnosis-first, non-surgical back pain treatment in Bangalore, led by a FIPP (USA) certified specialist, using image-guided procedures that mean minimal discomfort, same-day discharge and a faster return to work.
Your care is led by Dr. Kalpana K, FIPP (USA) and FIAPM gold medallist, an internationally board-certified interventional pain specialist, supported by physiotherapists and a care coordinator who manages your appointments, insurance and follow-up.
C-arm and ultrasound guided nerve blocks, radiofrequency ablation, PRP and prolotherapy, vertebroplasty and endoscopic spine surgery, performed in our own day-care procedure suite so you go home the same day.
Every patient is examined and, where needed, has a diagnostic block before any definitive treatment. You leave your first visit with a written plan: the recommended step, recovery time and cost, tailored to your diagnosis, work and goals.
See a back pain doctor in Bangalore if your pain has lasted more than a few weeks, does not improve with rest, spreads down a leg, or comes with weakness, numbness or weight loss. Severe back pain treatment in Bangalore and acute back pain treatment in Bangalore both work best when they start early. Consult a spine specialist if you experience:
Discomfort lasting more than a few weeks, or pain that keeps returning. For persistent back pain treatment Bangalore patients come to AIKYA to find out why it keeps coming back.
Intense pain that doesn't improve with rest. Same-day slots are held for severe back pain.
Pain spreading down the legs, especially below the knee: a sign a nerve root is involved.
In the legs or feet, tripping, or difficulty standing on tiptoe. This needs assessment this week.
Accompanied by back pain or a history of cancer. Investigation comes before any treatment.
Back pain that starts after a fall, road accident or heavy lift, or new severe pain if you have osteoporosis, needs a same-week assessment.
Back pain with fever, chills or feeling unwell can signal infection and must be investigated rather than treated for pain alone.
Back pain that wakes you at night or is worse lying down is not typical mechanical pain and deserves a specialist opinion.
Loss of bladder or bowel control, numbness around the groin, or sudden weakness in both legs: go to the nearest hospital emergency department now.
Back pain diagnosis at AIKYA follows five steps: clinical history, physical examination, neurological assessment, diagnostic tests and imaging. Chronic back pain treatment in Bangalore fails when this step is skipped, so treatment is chosen only after these confirm which structure is generating your pain.
Your consultation begins with a detailed conversation about where the pain is, how intense it is, what triggers or relieves it, what you have already tried and how it affects your work and sleep.
Bring any MRI, X-ray or previous prescriptions. The pattern of your pain narrows the likely cause before any test is ordered.
We test spinal mobility, posture, muscle tightness and trigger points, and reproduce your pain with specific movements to tell a muscular problem from a joint, disc or nerve problem.
Your scan is read alongside the examination, not instead of it.
We evaluate your nervous system by testing reflexes, sensation and muscle strength in the legs and feet. This pinpoints whether a nerve root is under pressure and, if so, which one.
A clear neurological picture guides both the diagnosis and the choice of treatment.
Where the source is still unclear, a small diagnostic block is placed at the suspected nerve, facet joint or sacroiliac joint under C-arm or ultrasound guidance. If the pain switches off, the source is confirmed.
This step is what separates targeted back pain treatment from guesswork.
MRI, X-ray or CT is ordered when it will change the plan, and reviewed against your examination. Disc bulges appear on the scans of many people with no pain at all, so imaging confirms the diagnosis rather than making it.
If you already have scans, bring them; you rarely need to repeat them.
Non surgical back pain treatment in Bangalore at AIKYA combines six approaches: nerve blocks, PRP, prolotherapy, radiofrequency, physiotherapy and lifestyle changes. This is back pain relief treatment in Bangalore built on interventional pain management for back pain: your plan uses the options your diagnosis calls for, and most are day-care procedures with same-day discharge.
Back pain nerve block treatment delivers local anaesthetic and anti-inflammatory medication precisely to the nerve or joint carrying your pain, under C-arm or ultrasound guidance. It is the most common back pain injection treatment in Bangalore at AIKYA because it relieves pain and confirms its source at the same time.
PRP uses a concentrate of your own platelets, injected under image guidance into a damaged ligament, joint or disc, to support the body's repair of the tissue rather than only masking pain.
Prolotherapy injects a mild irritant solution, usually dextrose, into weakened ligaments and tendons around the spine and pelvis to stimulate the body's own tightening and repair response.
Radiofrequency ablation for back pain uses controlled heat from radio waves to quiet the small nerves carrying pain from an arthritic facet or sacroiliac joint. It is offered only after a diagnostic block confirms those nerves are the source.
Back pain physiotherapy in Bangalore at AIKYA is supervised and structured: graded exercise, manual therapy and posture correction that restore movement and strength. Back pain rehabilitation in Bangalore after a procedure follows the same programme, because it is what makes every other treatment last.
Lasting back pain management in Bangalore depends on what happens between visits, so we give practical guidance on posture, movement, sleep, weight, nutrition and stress to keep the pain from coming back.
For the few patients whose disc or nerve compression does not respond to these steps, AIKYA also offers endoscopic back surgery, described below.
Back pain surgery in Bangalore at AIKYA is endoscopic and minimally invasive: keyhole spine surgery that removes a disc fragment or relieves nerve compression through a small incision, with day-care discharge wherever the case allows. It is recommended for the minority whose examination findings match their scan and who have not responded to non-surgical and interventional treatment.
Searching for the best back pain surgeon in Bangalore? Start with the diagnosis. At AIKYA the same team that offers non-surgical care decides whether a back pain surgeon in Bangalore is the right next step, so surgery is never the default.
AIKYA is different because a FIPP (USA) certified interventional pain specialist confirms the cause of your back pain before treating it and performs every image-guided procedure herself. An orthopedic doctor for back pain in Bangalore is the right first door for fractures and deformity; for back pain itself, a pain management doctor for back pain is trained for exactly that presentation, and we refer for surgery only when examination shows it is the better answer.
Our primary aim is to reduce pain, restore mobility and avoid unnecessary surgery using evidence-based regenerative medicine, physiotherapy and image-guided injections.
Dr. Kalpana K holds the FIPP (USA), the international board certification in interventional pain practice, and secured first rank nationwide in the FIAPM fellowship.
PRP and prolotherapy for tissue repair, radiofrequency ablation for nerve-related pain, vertebroplasty for fractures and neuromodulation for selected chronic pain, all under C-arm or ultrasound guidance.
There is no one-size-fits-all approach. You receive a written plan with the recommended step, recovery time and cost at your first visit, tailored to your diagnosis, work and goals.
Most back pain procedures take under an hour in our own procedure suite, with no overnight admission. Insurance assistance and EMI options are available for eligible procedures.

Patients often reach AIKYA for back pain treatment in Bengaluru after spine surgery was advised elsewhere. Here is one such experience, in the patient's own words.
“I had been advised spine surgery by two hospitals. At AIKYA they explained exactly which nerve was involved and treated it with a targeted procedure. I was walking normally in a week.”
AIKYA's back pain clinic in Marathahalli has its own day-care procedure suite equipped with a C-arm and ultrasound, so every back pain injection and radiofrequency procedure is performed under live imaging, minutes from the Outer Ring Road and Whitefield.
These answers cover what patients ask most before back pain treatment in Bangalore: symptoms, which doctor to see, medicines, causes, tests, the best treatment, surgery, and where to find a back pain clinic near Marathahalli.
The main symptom of back pain is a persistent ache, stiffness or sharp pain in the upper, mid or lower back that worsens with movement, sitting or lifting.
When a nerve is involved, pain, tingling or numbness travels into a buttock, leg or foot (sciatica), and chronic back pain also limits sleep, driving and stairs. Back pain treatment in Bangalore at AIKYA starts by matching these symptoms to the structure causing them.
A back pain specialist in Bangalore can tell these apart in one examination.
Book a back pain consultationA pain management doctor for back pain, specifically an interventional pain specialist, is the best doctor for back pain that is persistent, nerve-related or not explained by scans.
An orthopedic doctor for back pain in Bangalore is the right first door for fractures, deformity or joints that have structurally failed. For back pain itself, an interventional pain specialist confirms the source with diagnostic blocks and offers every non-surgical and minimally invasive option.
Seeing the right back pain doctor in Bangalore first saves months, and often the operation.
Consult Dr. KalpanaThe best medicine for back pain is a short, planned course matched to the cause; no medicine treats the cause itself.
Simple pain relievers and anti-inflammatories help acute strains, and nerve-pain medication helps sciatica in the short term. Long-term reliance masks pain without treating its source, which is why back pain relief treatment in Bangalore at AIKYA uses medication only as a bridge.
Your written plan states what you take, for how long, and what replaces it.
Ask about your treatment planThe three most common causes of back pain are muscle or ligament strain, disc problems such as a bulging or herniated disc, and age-related wear such as facet joint arthritis.
Less common causes include sacroiliac joint dysfunction, spinal stenosis, osteoporotic fractures, infection and inflammatory conditions, which is why a proper examination comes before any back pain treatment is chosen.
Two patients with the same MRI can need completely different treatment.
Find the cause of your back painThe best test for back pain is a clinical examination by a specialist, with imaging ordered only when it will change the plan.
MRI shows discs and nerves, X-ray shows alignment and fractures, CT shows bone detail, and nerve conduction studies assess nerve function. Disc bulges appear on the scans of many people with no pain at all, so a scan on its own is never the diagnosis.
A back pain consultation in Bangalore at AIKYA includes all of this at the first visit.
Book a back pain consultationNon surgical back pain treatment in Bangalore is better for the large majority of patients; surgery is reserved for the few whose nerve compression does not respond.
Most back pain, including many slipped discs and sciatica, improves with physiotherapy, short-term medication and, where a nerve or joint is confirmed as the source, a back pain injection treatment in Bangalore or radiofrequency procedure. Minimally invasive back pain treatment at AIKYA is day-care with same-day discharge.
You receive a written plan with options, recovery time and cost; insurance assistance and EMI are available.
See the treatment ladderBack pain surgery in Bangalore is needed when nerve compression from a disc herniation or spinal stenosis has not responded to non-surgical treatment and the examination matches the scan.
The best back pain surgeon in Bangalore for you is one who offers endoscopic or minimally invasive back surgery in Bangalore, explains why the non-surgical options have been exhausted, and gives the decision in writing.
