Non-Surgical Treatment

What are your options for back pain?
Lifestyle modifications, dietary modifications, herbal remedies, resistance training, stretching, various devices/equipment, physical therapy, chiropractic manipulation, accupuncture, biofeedback, meditation, medications, nerve blocks, other interventional procedures, and spinal surgery, to name a few!


Why would I avoid spinal surgery? Why would I consider non-surgical treatment over the spinal surgery? 

Spinal surgery is indicated when conservative treatment modalities fail. Surgery can cause scar tissue around spinal nerves, which could potentially worsen pain rather than alleviate it. I normally recommend that patients get a second opinion prior to undergoing spinal surgery.


Do herniated discs always require back or neck surgery?
No, most herniated discs can be managed with conservative, non-surgical treatment. Some people have herniated discs and no symptoms.
