Pain Management in Orlando
Chronic Pain? Get Relief with Pain Management Tailored Exactly for YOU.
Everyone experiences pain. It’s part of life — and it’s often temporary. But when your pain doesn’t go away, that’s when it can become unbearable. And that’s when your quality of life is being adversely affected to a point where you should get help.
Sometimes pain medications don’t work or cause side effects that can make things worse. And when that happens, it can feel like you just need to “deal with it” and try to keep living your life. At times, it can also feel like nobody understands what you’re going through.
WE do. We have helped many people manage their pain, whether they’ve experienced an injury or have been suffering from chronic pain for years. And we do it through a precise program of minimally invasive pain management treatments tailored to each individual patient.
The First Step: Finding the Root Cause of Your Pain
When it comes to real pain relief, we believe it’s only possible when you find the root cause. To do that, we take the time and care necessary to fully assess your situation. By employing the most advanced diagnostic technology, along with listening to you and observing your specific situation, we can accurately diagnose your pain.
Then, we design a personalized treatment plan focusing on what will bring you the most pain relief. This can involve several different options, all of which are minimally invasive and don’t require surgery (with all its complications and potential risks).
Interventional Pain Management Treatments
At Brain & Spine Pain Orlando, we are specialists in interventional pain management. We deliver minimally invasive treatments which reduce pain and improve your quality of life, particularly when other forms of treatment haven’t worked.
These treatments can help manage joint pain like back, knee, hip, or shoulder pain, as well as headaches and migraines. And they can provide rapid relief from pain that can last anywhere from weeks to months. Of course, every patient is different, and your results may vary.
Some of our treatments include:
Injections
We provide a variety of injections that can either temporarily or permanently reduce your pain. These include epidural steroid injections, facet joint injections, hip joint, shoulder, knee, and trigger point injections.
Nerve Blocks
Nerve blocks can help manage pain in a joint by blocking the nerve that gives that joint sensation. This can be particularly helpful for patients with low back pain or facet joint (spinal) pain.
Radiofrequency Ablation
Radiofrequency Ablation uses heat therapy to reduce or eliminate pain signals to the brain. This can help those with chronic low back and neck pain, as well as the pain from arthritis-related joint degeneration.
Spinal Cord Stimulation
With Spinal Cord Stimulation, we use a minimally invasive procedure to implant electrodes close to the spine. This safe, reliable treatment can intercept pain nerve signals to the brain to provide relief.
Ketamine Infusion Therapy
Ketamine IV infusions have been shown to be an effective treatment for pain like neuropathy, fibromyalgia, facial pain, pelvic pain, and more. Learn more about ketamine infusions here.
Physical Therapy
If physical therapy is appropriate, your program will be tailored to your precise condition and help you improve function and mobility. Our highly trained and experienced team will help you reduce pain.
Pain Management for Sports Injuries
Playing sports has so many advantages, from fitness to stress reduction to social connections and more. But it also comes with a risk of injuries. And those injuries can not only keep you from playing the sport you love, but they can also cause chronic pain.
As part of our interventional pain management program, we will work with you to give you relief. To that end, your treatment may include one or more of the procedures we have covered here. Additionally, we provide some of the highest quality physical therapy services to help you regain strength, flexibility, and mobility.

In his current role, he is the Founder and Medical Director of the Brain, Spine, and Pain Institute of Lake Nona in Orlando, Florida, and the Brain Treatment Center of Orlando.
Dr. Mbeo is a member of :
- The American Academy of Neurology (AAN),
- Society for Critical Care Medicine (SCCM),
- Neurocritical Care Society (NCS), and
- Clinical Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Society (CTMSS).
He has published several articles in national and international publications.
Founder and Medical Director
Gilbert Mbeo, MD is a triple board-certified physician who specializes in Neurology, NeuroIntensive Care, and Interventional Pain Management, with over 13 years of experience providing evidence-based, high-quality care to patients with acute neurological needs including acute stroke, neuromuscular respiratory failure, status epilepticus, and brain and spinal cord trauma.
Dr. Mbeo is a Neurointensivist, meaning that not only does he have an in-depth understanding of neurology and neurological conditions, but his expertise is in the care of critically ill neurologic patients with acute brain, spine, and neuromuscular disorders. This specialty is also referred to as neurologic intensive care, critical care neurology, and neurocritical care.
As a Neurointensivist, Dr. Mbeo saw firsthand the life-changing consequences of brain injuries such as head trauma, strokes, and other brain injuries. He was troubled by the fact that, even though with modern medicine we are getting better at saving lives, many patients with brain injury were left with severe disabilities.
His vision was to establish a state-of-the-art facility where cutting-edge interventions would be used to enhance neurological recovery in patients and this is exactly why he founded the Brain, Spine, Pain Institute of Lake Nona in Orlando, Florida.
After learning about the brain healing effects of neuromodulation Dr. Mbeo established the Brain Treatment Center Orlando as an additional treatment department in his clinic in order to use interventions like cognitive rehabilitation, Magnetic Resonance Therapy (MeRT), and transcranial magnetic stimulation as non-invasive treatment options for an array of neurological conditions.
