Spine treatments
We take an integrated team approach to spine, neck and back pain. Our orthopedic surgeons and neurosurgeons collaborate on solutions that achieve long-lasting results using minimally invasive methods.
Spine treatment options
Our goal is to successfully treat your symptoms with the least invasive treatment possible. We start with the most conservative treatments, working our way up as needed. Treatments options may vary by location.
Not all spine pain requires surgery. Our team offers a wide range of non-surgical options to help relieve discomfort and restore mobility.
Biofeedback, guided imagery, and self-hypnosis
Dorsal column stimulators
Epidural injections
Facet joint injections
Intrathecal therapy (implantable therapy)
Kyphoplasty and vertebroplasty
Lifestyle changes
Nerve blocks (including celiac plexus, intercostal nerve)
Non-opioid medical management
Nucleoplasty
Physical therapy (including the McKenzie Method)
Radiofrequency ablation and rhizotomy

Treatment may also include customized exercise programs or other specialized therapies. For those managing chronic back pain, integrative and alternative therapies—available through our Star and Barry Tobias Health Awareness Center and Chambers Center for Well-Being—can offer additional support from trained professionals.
