Prospira PainCare Welcomes Osteopathic Physician to The Pain Management Center

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., Oct. 17, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Prospira PainCare, Inc., the nation's premier provider of multi-disciplinary pain management and restorative healthcare services, today announced that Dr. Youssef Josephson, D.O., FAAPMR will join the team of pain experts at The Pain Management Center, serving southern New Jersey and the Philadelphia metropolitan area.

Dr. Josephson is an osteopathic physician specializing in interventional pain management, musculoskeletal medicine and electromyography and is an assistant professor of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation at the Rowan University, School of Osteopathic Medicine. He is double board certified in physical medicine and rehabilitation with a subspecialty certification in pain medicine by the American Board of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation. His philosophy is centered on core muscles as the foundation to good health. With a holistic approach to pain management treatment, Dr. Josephson looks at a patient's body as a whole and the inter-relationship of all parts of the body rather than treating one body part or symptom as an isolated condition. Dr. Josephson's expertise adds to the cadre of Prospira PainCare's pain experts nationwide.

"I'm honored to be a part of a dynamic team of doctors dedicated to making a change in the practice of pain management," said Dr. Youssef Josephson, D.O. "Pain is all-encompassing, affecting the biological, psychological and social factors of each patient. With the support of Prospira PainCare, I'm excited to be able to help new patients who suffer from chronic and acute pain, and restore them back to a life they were meant to live."

Prospira PainCare Centers of Excellence, including The Pain Management Center of New Jersey, offer a holistic, multi-disciplinary course of care that provides pain relief and seeks to restore a patient's well-being, returning them to a more productive, functional lifestyle. Founded by practicing physician Dr. Adam Sackstein, The Pain Management Center treats acute, chronic and intractable pain through an inter-disciplinary approach to pain management with an emphasis on interventional and therapeutic procedures.

"Dr. Josephson's training and experience as an osteopath make him the perfect fit to round out our team of pain experts at The Pain Management Center," said Dr. Adam Sackstein, CEO, The Pain Management Center. "His focus on the core muscle structure will allow us to broaden our level of treatments and ensure we are offering optimal therapies and services to all of our patients."

In addition to Dr. Josephson's new position with Prospira PainCare, he will remain on staff at Rowan University and continue to serve those patients who rely on him under the University umbrella. Dr. Josephson and Dr. Sackstein will also join Vincera Institute as the official pain experts, offering an inter-disciplinary approach, coupled with conventional methodologies to ensure each patient at Vincera Institute, who suffer from chronic and acute pain, is restored to their optimal health and function.  

"Prospira PainCare is pleased to welcome Dr. Josephson to our nationwide team of world-class pain experts. His holistic approach as an osteopath perfectly aligns with Prospira PainCare's inter-disciplinary methodology to pain management," said Dr. Barry Karlin, Chairman and CEO, Prospira PainCare.
