About Dr. Rarinthorn Choomsai Na Ayuthaya

Dr. Rarinthorn Choomsai Na Ayuthaya is an interventional pain physician at YOUNIFY Clinic, a physician-led Healthy Aging and Wellness Center on Silom Road in central Bangkok. She treats musculoskeletal, spine, nerve, and chronic pain using image-guided, needle-only techniques, intending to reduce pain, restore movement, and return people to the things they have stopped doing.

She earned her Doctor of Medicine with First Class Honours from Chulalongkorn University, and holds a Diploma of Anaesthesiology and a Diploma of Pain Medicine from the same university. In 2023, she was a Visiting Scholar in Pain Medicine at ASAN Medical Center, Seoul, South Korea.

CONDITIONS SHE TREATS

  • Spine and nerve pain: chronic back pain, neck pain, herniated disc, cervical and lumbar radicular pain (pain radiating into the arm or leg), spinal degeneration, and pain that persists after spine surgery.

  • Joint and muscle pain: knee osteoarthritis, shoulder pain, rotator cuff disorders and chronic joint conditions.

  • Nerve and headache pain: neuropathic pain and migraine.

PROCEDURES

All are performed through a needle under fluoroscopy or ultrasound guidance, with no incision, and most patients go home the same day.

  • Diagnostic nerve blocks, including medial branch block, used to confirm which structure is generating the pain before any longer-acting treatment is chosen.

  • Radiofrequency ablation, including medial branch radiofrequency, for facet-related neck and back pain.

  • Epidural steroid injection, including cervical epidural injection, and selective nerve root injection.

  • Facet joint injection and trigger point injection.

  • Injection for migraine and neuropathic pain.

Her starting point is the cause rather than the symptom. Where the source of pain is uncertain, a diagnostic block is used first to identify it, and only then is a longer-acting treatment considered — which spares patients procedures aimed at the wrong target. Treatment is planned individually and alongside rehabilitation rather than instead of it. Degrees of relief and how long it lasts differ from person to person, and she will explain what a procedure is likely to achieve, and what it will not, before you decide.

Consultations are available in Thai and English, and the clinic regularly cares for international patients travelling to Bangkok, supported by YOUNIFY Clinic's medical travel pathway from pre-arrival planning through to departure and follow-up.

Clinical focus

Our goal is to help Muslim medical travellers and their accompanying family members feel respected, informed, and comfortable throughout their healthcare journey in Thailand.
