Degenerative Spine
As we age, our spinal tissue, disc and bone matter become more prone to trauma and tearing. When a tear occurs in the outer portion of a disc, sensitive nerve endings may become exposed, causing irritation and pain. Often these conditions can be treated with a variety of conservative measures to improve symptoms, including stretching, physical therapy, lifestyle changes, steroid injections and pain medication. However, if symptoms persist, surgical intervention may produce excellent therapeutic results. Our specialists perform expert artificial disc replacements, disc arthroplasties, foraminotomies, laminectomies, discectomies, traditional open and spinal fusion procedures, motion preservation and dynamic stabilization of the spine, and other minimally-invasive surgeries to redress degenerative conditions of the cervical, thoracic and lumbar spine.
