The spine is a remarkable structure, a combination of human anatomy designed not only to be flexible, but also provide strength and structure. Whether you have a muscle strain (the most common form of back pain) or a condition such as osteoarthritis, spinal stenosis, or a herniated disc, there are a wide range of treatments available.

Facing surgery can be a daunting experience. Whether you or a loved one is about to undergo surgery, it is important to be prepared. Understanding your surgery options will help you better decide on a course of action.
