NON-SURGICALTREATMENTS

At Inland Northwest Spine, we offer many non-surgical treatment options. In fact, the most common treatment options we offer and suggest to the majority of new patients is non-surgical. Some of these treatments include spine injections, referrals to physical therapy or chiropractic professionals, or advice and education on maintaining appropriate orthopedic spine health.

MINIMALLY INVASIVETECHNIQUES

We offer true minimally invasive spine surgery (MIS) options for our patients. In order to perform effective minimally invasive spine surgery, this requires specialized training, equipment, and experience. When utilized and performed correctly, this allows patients to undergo surgery in a way that minimizes soft tissue disruption and spares key spine structures. The result is less pain after surgery, faster recovery, and less long-term complications.

SURGICALPROCEDURES

Not only are there many spine conditions that exist, every patient is different and should be treated in a unique way. At Inland Northwest Spine, we offer an array of surgical techniques to treat each patient. In some cases, each spine condition can be surgically treated in several different ways, allowing us to individualize treatment plans based on specific patient needs and complaints.
