Chronic pain doesn’t have to define your life. As a board-certified physician in Family Medicine, Osteopathic Medicine, and Regenerative Medicine, I’ve spent years refining a comprehensive, whole-body approach to pain control that goes beyond temporary fixes. At Dr. Golberg Functional & Aesthetic Medicine in Manhattan and Brooklyn, we blend advanced therapies like platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) with time-honored techniques like osteopathic manipulative treatment (OMT) and auricular acupuncture, alongside emerging options such as exosome therapy and stem cell treatments, all within the scope of FDA-compliant practices. The result? A personalized plan that targets the root causes of your pain and restores your vitality.
Pain isn’t just discomfort—it’s a signal that something’s out of balance. Whether it’s joint stiffness, muscle tension, or nerve irritation, traditional approaches often mask the problem with medication. My philosophy is different: I aim to heal the body naturally, leveraging its own regenerative power while fine-tuning its alignment and energy flow. Here’s how my multi-faceted approach works.
Exosomes are tiny messengers that carry healing signals between cells, acting as nature’s repair crew. In my practice, I offer exosome therapy in an FDA-compliant manner to support the body’s natural processes, such as reducing inflammation and promoting tissue health—particularly for conditions like arthritis or tendon injuries. Derived from rigorously sourced materials, these microscopic powerhouses are used in accordance with current regulations to target damaged areas, offering a promising option for relief where appropriate. Patients often report reduced pain and improved mobility as part of their overall care plan.
Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) takes regenerative medicine a step further. By concentrating your blood’s growth factors and injecting them into painful areas, PRF stimulates tissue regeneration and reduces inflammation. It’s a game-changer for chronic joint pain, sports injuries, and even hair restoration (a bonus for those seeking aesthetic benefits!). Because it’s derived from your own body, it’s safe, natural, and highly effective.
Stem cell therapy is a key part of my regenerative toolkit, applied in strict adherence to FDA guidelines. These versatile cells are used responsibly to support the body’s repair processes—potentially aiding in the regeneration of cartilage, muscle, or connective tissue. For patients with degenerative conditions like osteoarthritis or persistent back pain, stem cell therapy, when administered within approved protocols, offers a forward-thinking option to complement other treatments. I’ve seen how this approach, when properly integrated, can support long-term wellness.
As an osteopathic physician, I believe structure and function are inseparable. Osteopathic manipulative treatment (OMT) uses hands-on techniques to correct misalignments, ease muscle tension, and improve circulation. It’s like a reset button for your musculoskeletal system. For patients with neck pain, sciatica, or tension headaches, OMT often provides immediate relief while enhancing the effects of regenerative therapies. It’s a cornerstone of my holistic approach.
Auricular acupuncture targets specific points on the ear that correspond to different parts of the body. This ancient practice, backed by modern research, can reduce pain, calm the nervous system, and even curb inflammation. I use it to complement other treatments, offering patients a non-invasive way to manage discomfort—whether it’s migraines, fibromyalgia, or post-injury soreness. It’s quick, gentle, and surprisingly powerful.
What sets my practice apart is integration. No two patients are alike, so I combine these therapies based on your unique needs, ensuring all treatments align with FDA standards where applicable. A construction worker with a knee injury might get PRF and OMT, while a desk worker with chronic neck pain might benefit from a tailored combination of therapies like auricular acupuncture and FDA-compliant regenerative options. My concierge membership ensures you get 24/7 access to me, so we can fine-tune your plan as you heal.
Living with pain isn’t inevitable. Whether you’re in Manhattan, Brooklyn, or beyond, I invite you to experience a different kind of care—one that blends innovation with compassion, all while adhering to regulatory standards.
