Questions
Common Questions
Do I need a GP referral?
Yes, you will need a GP referral so we can review your full medical history before your appointment. Ask your GP to refer you to Beacon Pain Clinic, and then book your consultation here or call us on 01 293 7177.
Will I need surgery?
Most spinal pain does not require surgery. Our specialists focus on non-surgical treatments first, including injections, medication, and rehabilitation. Surgery is only considered if other options have not worked.
What is spinal stenosis?
Spinal stenosis is when the space inside the spinal canal narrows, putting pressure on the nerves. It can cause pain, numbness, and weakness in the legs or arms. It is very treatable with the right approach.
Is it covered by insurance?
We accept all the major insurers. We recommend checking with your insurer to confirm what's covered under your specific policy.
