As a total spine care provider, Inspired Spine offers a range of services and treatments for back problems and back pain, in addition to advanced minimally invasive spine surgery. In fact, fewer than 1 in 10 of our patients require surgery at all. Most find pain relief with other, noninvasive back treatments.
The Inspired Spine Multidimensional Conservative Protocol™️ is a proprietary process which was built upon feedback from Surgeons, Physical Therapists, Chiropractors and Pain Management specialists to determine the best path for all our patients.
Our primary goal is to find the least invasive spinal therapy that works for you. This goal underlies every stage of our process – from initial consultation through treatment plan and follow-up. At every step of the way, you will be aided by our Patient Care Coordinators, who can answer your questions and help make arrangements for your care.
We take time to arrive at the right back pain diagnosis and walk you through the best treatment options for you. During your initial consultation at Inspired Spine, you will be seen by an expert spine surgeon. You should expect to discuss your medical history, current symptoms, and any previous treatments you have had for your back problem. To prepare for your appointment, you can download medical history and symptom questionnaires, fill them out ahead of time and bring the completed forms with you to your consultation.
We will also review any recent diagnostic images you may already have, so please bring them with you to your appointment.
We may perform additional diagnostic procedures to help pinpoint the true cause of your pain. For instance, an advanced upright MRI provides a more accurate picture of your spine under pressure – when it hurts – than a reclining MRI would. However, MRIs can be misleading because abnormalities, such as degenerating discs, can be seen on scans for 3 out of 4 people under age 50, and virtually everyone 65 and older.1 In most cases, they are not painful.
Another diagnostic called a
discogram can help identify which nerves are causing your pain. This information
enables us to focus on treating your pain, not merely correcting anatomical issues.
Before we recommend surgery, we may devise a treatment plan that includes
conservative therapy options, such as chiropractic care or pain management services. A minimally invasive
spinal surgery
procedure is an option when conservative treatments have failed AND back pain significantly
affects your quality of life.
In truth, most of the people who come to Inspired Spine have been living with severe back or neck pain for years and have exhausted all non-surgical alternatives with little or no relief. Their pain still restricts their work, leisure, and normal activities of everyday life. Many have turned to narcotic pain medication, as a last resort.
When surgery is required, our patients still get the benefit of the least invasive approach available. Inspired Spine has developed advanced fluoroscopic minimally invasive spinal surgery techniques that allow us to treat even complex spinal conditions without the drawbacks of traditional open surgery.
