Using the most advanced and minimally invasive treatments, our physicians help patients with lumbar spondylosis find relief from their pain and other symptoms and return to an active lifestyle.
Spinal Osteoarthritis Treatment
If you are seeking the most advanced treatment for spinal osteoarthritis, you can count on the caring team from Ortho Sport & Spine Physicians. Our treatments are focused on alleviating the symptoms associated with joint stiffness and nerve compression that result from lumbar spondylosis. In some cases, the discomfort from spinal degeneration can be managed using conservative treatments such as therapeutic exercises, massage, physical therapy, over-the-counter or prescription pain medications, hot/cold therapy or epidural steroid injections. If you have been diagnosed with lumbar spondylosis, we will work collaboratively with your referring physician, chiropractor or other ancillary services such as physical therapy to help manage your condition.
If you have tried to manage your lumbar spondylosis with conservative treatments and your pain persists, you may be a good candidate for minimally invasive, endoscopic spine surgery (also known as “band-aid back surgery”). Ortho Sport & Spine Physicians is proud be one of the nation’s leading providers of endoscopic spine surgery. Using this advanced technique, we can help you find relief from your pain with fewer complications and a shorter recovery time as compared to traditional open back surgery.
