Treatments

Medications

Medications can play a useful role in patients with spine pain when used in conjunction with rehabilitation, spinal injections, and/or surgery.

Mental & Emotional Therapy

Living with chronic back or neck pain can lead to depression, feelings of stress, anxiety, sadness, and other mental health-related symptoms.

Microdisectomy

A microdiscectomy is useful to relieve pain due to a disc herniation that is pressing on a nerve.

Minimally Invasive Surgery

Minimally invasive techniques for spine surgery were initiated in the 1980’s and have evolved and improved in the past three decades thanks to technical innovations.

Outpatient Spine Surgery

Improvements in technology and surgical techniques over the past decade have allowed for more spine surgeries to be performed outside of the traditional hospital setting and in outpatient spine surgery centers.

Pain Management

A pain medicine specialist is a medical or osteopathic doctor who treats pain caused by disease, disorder, or trauma.

Percutaneous Vertebral Augmentation (PVA)

Augmentation means to add to, vertebral indicates a vertebra, and percutaneous means through the skin.

Physical Therapy

Poor strength might be a contributing factor to the development of a spine-related disorder if the demands placed on the spine exceed a patient’s strength capacities.

Posterior Cervical Foraminotomy

Posterior cervical foraminotomy is an alternative surgical procedure to relieve symptoms of a pinched spinal nerve.

Postural Training

Environmental loads, stresses, and strains (associated with gravity, or even the furniture you rest on) can be balanced and contained by optimal posturing.
