What happens during A-IMS® treatment for back pain? Dr. Lee treats back pain when it is caused by muscle spasms caused by nerve- muscles interactions, which is common for the majority of back pain patients. For upper and mid back pain, the primary muscles treated are rhomboids, levator scapulae that have attachments to the back. Other muscles such a Numbness s latissimus dorsi, lower trapezius and lumbosacral spinal muscles are also treated if needed. For the lower back, lumbosacral paraspinal, gluteus maximus, gluteus medius muscles are treated. Other muscles such as latissimus dorsi, quadratus lumborum, and gluteus minimus are also treated if needed. These muscles are stimulated with a needle to obtain local twitch responses LTRs (see Fast Relief – LTR Section of this website for the explanation) that will bring predictable, fast relief of the back pain.
