Spine Surgery
Pathologies of the spinal column, affecting the area between head and pelvis, as well as of the spinal cord are often associated with partially severe pain and neurological deficits. They can be treated conservatively or surgically.
These include:
Individualized Therapy
Depending on the main presenting symptoms and findings of the physical examination, including a regionally focused assessment of the musculoskeletal system, we decide together about your further treatment:
- Conservative therapy (e.g. observation with follow-up consultations, physical and/or occupational therapy, medication, manual therapy)
- Infiltration(s) (for further clarification or treatment of pain)
- Surgery
Careful Consideration Before Surgery
The decision to operate should be made carefully after all reasonable conservative and interventional procedures have been exhausted. In emergency situations, the time window for decision making is often quite narrow where rapid and timely decisions are needed in order to preserve neurological function.
Minimally Invasive Approaches to Alleviate Symptoms
The goal of treatment is always to alleviate pain and / or neurological deficits using the least invasive method while maintaining the body's integrity to restore or maintain functionality and quality of life.
