Interventional pain medicine plays an important role in pain therapy for neck and back pain. However, spine interventions are characterized by controversy between its proponents and its detractors. Detractors variously assert that the procedures practiced lack validity, are not effective, or produce complications that impugn the procedures. The Spine Intervention Society (SIS) published several articles over the last decade that answer and refute these criticisms.
