Pain Unit in Valencia – Comprehensive Treatment for Chronic and Acute Pain

In the Pain Unit in Valencia, we treat chronic and acute pain with advanced techniques and a comprehensive, personalised approach to improve your quality of life more quickly and sustainably.

We understand that pain affects both body and mind, which is why we combine psychotherapy, pharmacological treatment and minimally invasive techniques adapted to each stage of the process.

We treat conditions ranging from low back pain and fibromyalgia to oncological pain, offering more than 60 safe and effective techniques to help you relieve pain and resume your daily life.

What makes us unique in the Pain Unit

More than 60 minimally invasive techniques to relieve pain

Most advanced techniques: Neuromodulation

In Valencia, we offer innovative and minimally invasive neuromodulation techniques such as Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation, which allows us to alter the pain signal before it reaches the brain, providing relief.

Effective treatment for disc herniation pain without surgery

Thanks to the Discolux laser, we can treat lumbar or cervical disc herniations in a minimally invasive way. This treatment offers multiple benefits compared to traditional techniques: it is outpatient, safer, and recovery is faster.

Latest technology in Diagnostic Imaging

We have the latest technology in diagnostic imaging (e.g. 3-Tesla Magnetic Resonance Imaging), enabling us to make an accurate diagnosis.

The most comprehensive Pain Unit portfolio

The more than 60 minimally invasive interventional techniques, including the latest advances in neuromodulation, ozone therapy or cryoanalgesia, allow us to provide each patient with the most effective treatment plan for their case and stage.

Pain Unit Frequently Asked Questions

What is a pain unit and when should I attend?
When should I go to the pain unit?
Early diagnosis and treatment are essential for treatment effectiveness. The sooner an appropriate treatment is applied to the type of pain and to the patient, the better the results will be.

Attend the Pain Unit if:
- You have had persistent or recurrent pain for more than three months
- The pain affects your quality of life, sleep or mood
- You have received treatments without improvement
- You suffer from pain after surgery, an injury or a disease such as cancer
In our Pain Unit in Valencia, we help you identify the root cause of your pain and relieve it in a comprehensive way, addressing not only the pain itself but also how it affects you physically and emotionally.
What conditions does the Pain Unit treat?
In the Pain Unit we use advanced techniques to relieve pain, always adapted to the needs of each patient.

Some common treatments include:
- Image-guided injections
- Nerve blocks
- Radiofrequency to deactivate the pain signal
- Specialised pharmacological therapy
- Electrical nerve stimulation (neuromodulation)
- Cryoanalgesia, which uses controlled cold to reduce the sensitivity of the affected nerves
- Ozone therapy, which uses medical ozone with anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties
We work in an integrated way, combining pain medicine with functional, emotional and physical approaches.
Does the Pain Unit cure pain or only relieve symptoms?
What conditions does the Pain Unit treat?
We treat a wide range of clinical conditions that present with persistent pain. Among the most common are:
- Low back pain, sciatica and disc herniations
- Cervical and joint pain
- Neuralgias (trigeminal, intercostal…)
- Complex regional pain syndrome
- Oncological pain
- Post-surgical pain
- Fibromyalgia
- Pain due to osteoarthritis or rheumatic diseases
If pain limits your day-to-day life, whatever its origin, we can help you manage it.
What is the first consultation like in the Pain Unit?
During the first visit, the medical team carries out a comprehensive assessment, including a review of the medical history and a physical examination. The aim is to understand the type of pain, its duration and intensity, and how it affects your daily life.

In some cases, the specialist may request additional diagnostic tests (such as MRI, CT or electromyography) to determine the origin of the pain more precisely.

With all this information, we develop a personalised therapeutic plan with a multidisciplinary approach that may combine:
- Pharmacological treatment
- Minimally invasive techniques
- Psychological or emotional support, when necessary
The Pain Unit doctor will accompany you throughout the entire process, assessing your progress and adjusting the treatment to achieve the greatest possible effectiveness and a progressive improvement in your quality of life.

The first step to relieving your pain starts now.
