Interventional Pain Management Services in Granada Hills, CA
At Modern Pain Solutions, Dr. Jungjae Lim, MD offers a comprehensive range of advanced, minimally invasive pain management treatments to help patients throughout Granada Hills, the San Fernando Valley, and greater Los Angeles reclaim their lives from chronic pain. Whether you are dealing with a specific injury, a degenerative condition, or complex pain that has resisted prior treatment, we have the expertise and tools to help — without surgery and without long-term dependence on opioid medications.
A Full Spectrum of Interventional Pain Care
Every patient who walks through our doors in Granada Hills, CA receives a thorough, individualized evaluation — not a one-size-fits-all treatment protocol. Dr. Lim reviews your full medical history, examines you comprehensively, and interprets your imaging before recommending any intervention. The result is a targeted treatment plan built around your specific diagnosis, pain generators, and personal goals. Below is an overview of the services we provide.
Back & Neck Pain
The spine is the most complex structural system in the body, and back and neck pain can arise from many different sources — including herniated discs, spinal stenosis, facet joint degeneration, nerve compression, and soft tissue injury. Dr. Lim uses precision-guided interventional techniques to identify and treat the specific pain generators in your spine, from epidural steroid injections and facet procedures to radiofrequency ablation and regenerative therapies. Visit our Back & Neck Pain page to learn more.
Hip & Knee Pain
The hips and knees are the body’s primary weight-bearing joints — and when they hurt, virtually every movement becomes a challenge. Modern Pain Solutions offers targeted joint injections, viscosupplementation, PRP therapy, and regenerative orthobiologic treatments to reduce pain, improve function, and help patients avoid or delay joint replacement surgery. Learn more on our Hip & Knee Pain page.
Shoulder Pain
Shoulder pain from rotator cuff injuries, bursitis, frozen shoulder, or arthritis can limit your ability to reach, lift, sleep, and work. Dr. Lim provides a range of non-surgical shoulder treatments — including corticosteroid injections, PRP therapy, and ultrasound-guided procedures — designed to reduce inflammation, promote healing, and restore full shoulder function. Visit our Shoulder Pain page for details.
Injection Therapies
Precision-guided injection therapies are the cornerstone of interventional pain management. Dr. Lim offers a comprehensive range of image-guided injections, including epidural steroid injections, facet joint injections, medial branch nerve blocks, trigger point injections, sympathetic nerve blocks, viscosupplementation, and peripheral nerve blocks — all performed with fluoroscopic or ultrasound guidance for accuracy and safety. See our full Injections page.
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy
PRP therapy is a regenerative medicine treatment that harnesses the concentrated healing growth factors in your own blood to stimulate tissue repair in damaged joints, tendons, and soft tissue. It is a safe, drug-free, minimally invasive alternative to cortisone injections that often produces more durable results — and it can be used for everything from knee arthritis and rotator cuff tendinosis to spinal disc conditions. Learn more on our PRP Therapy page.
Neuromodulation & Spinal Cord Stimulation
For patients with chronic pain that has not responded adequately to medications, physical therapy, or injections, neuromodulation represents a transformative next step. Dr. Lim offers Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS), Dorsal Root Ganglion (DRG) Stimulation, and Peripheral Nerve Stimulation (PNS) — advanced implantable therapies that interrupt chronic pain signals at the nervous system level and provide long-term, adjustable relief. A reversible trial period is always performed before any permanent implantation. Visit our Neuromodulation page.
Minimally Invasive Spine (MIS) Procedures
For patients with structural spinal conditions that have not responded to conservative care, Dr. Lim offers the most advanced minimally invasive spine procedures available — including the MILD procedure and Vertiflex spacer for lumbar spinal stenosis, the Intracept procedure for vertebrogenic low back pain, Kyphoplasty for vertebral compression fractures, and minimally invasive SI joint fusion. These outpatient procedures deliver meaningful, durable results with significantly less recovery time than traditional open surgery. See our Minimally Invasive Spine page.
Personal Injury & Car Accident Pain Management
Injuries from car accidents, workplace incidents, and slips and falls require both expert medical care and thorough documentation to support your legal case. Modern Pain Solutions specializes in treating personal injury patients — including whiplash, herniated discs, joint trauma, and soft tissue injuries — and provides rapid scheduling, comprehensive medical records, and close coordination with attorneys and case managers. We accept lien-based cases. Visit our Personal Injury page for more information.

Which service is right for my pain condition?
The most appropriate service depends on your specific diagnosis, the location and nature of your pain, your prior treatment history, and your goals. During your first visit, Dr. Lim will conduct a thorough evaluation and explain your diagnosis, the treatment options available to you, and his specific recommendations — so you can make an informed decision about your care.

Does Modern Pain Solutions offer non-surgical treatment options?
Yes — all of them. Every service offered at Modern Pain Solutions is non-surgical or minimally invasive. Dr. Lim’s philosophy is to exhaust all appropriate, evidence-based non-surgical options before recommending any open surgical procedure. The vast majority of patients treated at our practice achieve meaningful, lasting relief without ever needing surgery.

How do I know which injection therapy is right for me?
Selecting the right injection therapy requires an accurate diagnosis and an understanding of which specific structures are generating your pain. Dr. Lim uses a combination of clinical evaluation, imaging review, and — when necessary — diagnostic injections to pinpoint your pain source before recommending a therapeutic injection. This precision approach ensures that every injection we perform is appropriate, targeted, and likely to provide meaningful benefit. See our full Injection Therapies page for an overview of what’s available.
