Facet joint injections have been utilized since the 1960s to diagnose and treat facet joint pain.

The procedure is now a standard in interventional pain management for the treatment of:
Facet joint injections are administered into the small joints located between the vertebrae. These injections combine a local anesthetic and corticosteroid. The corticosteroid reduces inflammation within the joint, while the anesthetic provides immediate relief by numbing the area. This dual action improves mobility and alleviates pain caused by irritated or inflamed facet joints.
