Spine Care Starts Here

Your spine provides the support, flexibility, and stability your body needs for nearly every movement while protecting the spinal cord and nerves that connect your brain to the rest of your body. This strong, flexible structure is made up of 33 vertebrae extending from the neck to the tailbone and is divided into five regions: the cervical spine (neck), thoracic spine (upper back), lumbar spine (lower back), sacrum, and coccyx (tailbone). Cushion-like discs between the vertebrae absorb shock and allow the spine to bend and move, while bones, joints, muscles, ligaments, tendons, and nerves work together to provide strength, stability, and movement.

When one part of this system becomes injured or begins to wear down, it can lead to back or neck pain, numbness, tingling, weakness, or radiating pain. At Spine & Orthopedic Center, our spine surgeons diagnose and treat the full spectrum of spine conditions, from common degenerative disorders to complex spinal injuries and deformities.

Most spine conditions can be treated without surgery. Whenever possible, treatment begins with conservative options, which may include:

  • Activity modification
  • Anti-inflammatory & pain-relieving medications
  • Image-guided spinal injections
  • Other evidence-based nonsurgical treatments
  • Physical therapy & rehabilitation

If surgery is the best option for your condition, our spine surgeons offer advanced procedures ranging from minimally invasive techniques to reconstructive spine surgery. Every surgical recommendation is carefully tailored to your diagnosis, symptoms, and long-term goals using advanced technology and evidence-based techniques.
