“I had been having extreme pain for a year in my shoulder, it was coming from arthritis in my neck. At my first visit I let them know my insurance would be expiring the next day due to employment changes. The doctor and his team reassured me they would do what they could to get insurance approval and the treatment I needed to start my new job pain free… and they did just that!!! Dr Martinez had med students with him that day and it was great to hear him share his knowledge and teach them. I feel blessed to have been referred to his practice. Thank you all for everything!!”

Frequently Asked Questions About Arthritis Treatment in Fort Worth

What types of arthritis do you treat?

At WOW Spine, we treat all types of arthritis pain including osteoarthritis (degenerative joint disease), rheumatoid arthritis, cervical and lumbar facet arthritis, sacroiliac joint arthritis, knee osteoarthritis, hip arthritis, and shoulder arthritis. Dr. Martinez performs a comprehensive evaluation to identify which joints are affected and develop the most effective treatment plan.

What is radiofrequency ablation and how does it help arthritis?

Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) uses controlled heat to disrupt the nerves transmitting pain signals from arthritic joints. This minimally invasive procedure provides long-lasting relief (typically 6-12+ months) and is especially effective for facet joint arthritis in the spine and knee osteoarthritis. It’s an excellent option for patients who haven’t responded well to injections or want to avoid surgery.

Can arthritis pain be treated without surgery?

Yes, most arthritis pain can be effectively managed without surgery. At WOW Spine, we offer joint injections, nerve blocks, radiofrequency ablation, PRP therapy, and physical therapy. These treatments can provide significant relief, improve function, and may help you delay or avoid joint replacement surgery.

What’s the difference between osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis?

Osteoarthritis is “wear and tear” arthritis caused by cartilage breakdown over time—it’s the most common type and typically affects weight-bearing joints. Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune condition where the immune system attacks joint tissue, often affecting multiple joints symmetrically. Both can be effectively treated with interventional pain management techniques at WOW Spine.

How long do arthritis treatments last?

Results vary by treatment type. Corticosteroid joint injections typically provide relief for 3-6 months. Hyaluronic acid injections may last 6 months or longer. Radiofrequency ablation often provides relief for 6-12+ months, and the procedure can be repeated. PRP therapy may provide longer-lasting benefits as it promotes healing. Dr. Martinez will discuss expected outcomes during your consultation.

Does WOW Spine accept my insurance for arthritis treatment?

We accept most major insurance plans including Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield Texas, Cigna, Humana, United Healthcare, and Medicare. Call 682-285-1044 and our staff will verify your coverage before your appointment.
