Pain Management
Our pain management services address chronic conditions like back pain, migraines, and joint disorders through a combination of medication management, interventional procedures, and non-invasive therapies. We specialize in creating customized plans to reduce discomfort and improve mobility. Patients benefit from a holistic approach that integrates physical therapy, acupuncture, and advanced diagnostic tools to target the root cause of pain.
Regenerative Medicine
Regenerative medicine focuses on healing damaged tissues using the bodys natural mechanisms, including platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and stem cell therapy. These treatments are ideal for sports injuries, osteoarthritis, and degenerative disc disease. By stimulating cellular repair, we aim to restore function without surgery, offering long-term relief and improved joint or spinal health for eligible patients.
Sports Medicine
Sports medicine services cater to athletes and active individuals, addressing injuries from acute trauma or overuse through rapid diagnosis and recovery-focused treatments. Our team employs ultrasound-guided injections, physical rehabilitation, and regenerative therapies to accelerate healing. We emphasize injury prevention and performance optimization for both professional and recreational athletes.
Facial Rejuvenation
Facial rejuvenation services use laser technology, microneedling, and PRP to reduce wrinkles, scars, and uneven skin tone. These non-surgical options stimulate collagen production for a youthful appearance. Patients receive tailored treatments to address aging signs, sun damage, or texture irregularities with minimal downtime.
Liposuction
Liposuction removes stubborn fat deposits using laser-assisted technology for smoother body contours. The procedure can be combined with fat transfer to enhance areas like the buttocks or breasts. Ideal candidates are near their target weight but struggle with localized fat, seeking a sculpted physique through minimally invasive means.

I am very pleased with Dr. Rock and his staff! He's very thorough, and he really took the time to listen to me and try and figure out what kind of injuries I had. He looked at my MRI and explained what was happening with my spine. He knows his stuff and I am so happy I found this place!

Ive been working with Dr. Rock for several months now, and have had multiple procedures. I cannot say enough about his quality of work, and care for his patients. He does not make you feel like a number, and thoroughly takes his time reviewing your issues. His staff is wonderful, always professional, inviting, and accomodating. Coming in with issues and complaints with my previous surgeon, Dr. Rock Navarkal and his team will not let you down, and make you feel right at home!

Dr. Rock has been helping me for over 10 yrs. While the world has been going crazy the last year, Dr Rock has been there for my well being since my back surgery, and now when I need both my knees replaced. It's so hard to find a doctor who really cares for his patients. I highly recommend Dr Rock.

Dr. Rock has been part of my pain management team for over 2 years. I have 2 degenerated discs and a fused joint and have had ongoing neck and back issues for decades. In preparing for disc replacement surgery in the past 6 months, I was diagnosed with DCIS. So my disc replacement has been put on hold several months as I deal with multiple surgeries for DCIS cancer. Doctor has always explained everything thoroughly and with the upmost professionalism. I did have one epidural through UC health and that lasted for a few days only. Dr. Rock has done a radio frequency ablation on different levels in

Dr. Narvarkal is an amazing physician that treats his patients well. He makes sure that they are comfortable in every day life. His facility has really made a difference in my life. I broke my back in 2016 and unfortunately I have had to deal with a great amount of pain that effects my day to day life harshly. I have also had 3 knee surgeries to add to the inconvenience. Doctor Rock ; Rocky Mountain Spine and Sports Medicine manages my pain and improves my quality of life. I highly recommend him and his amazing facility if you want to get real improvement in your quality of life.
