Back Pain Relief Is Possible through Gentle, Minimally Invasive Laser Surgery at LSI

Back pain can originate anywhere on the spinal column, from aching in the neck and shoulders to sharp, shooting pains traveling from the lower back to the hips and thighs. Most back pain goes away on its own or responds well to conservative treatments such as medications, massage, and exercise. In some cases, however, back pain relief is best treated by surgically treating the underlying issues such as a bulging disc, spinal arthritis, or sciatica.

After conservative treatments have failed to provide you with back pain relief, your doctor may discuss the possibility of using open back surgery to address your discomfort. There are several open back surgeries available to treat back ailments, for example, spinal fusion surgery to immobilize damaged vertebrae. However, like other invasive surgeries, open back surgery comes with several risks and involves months of painful recovery time.

Laser Spine Institute’s surgeons, physicians, and medical staff have devoted their careers to offering minimally invasive endoscopic procedures that provide the fastest back pain relief possible with minimal risk compared to open back surgery. There are many advantages to laser-assisted spine treatments at LSI, such as:

All of our procedures are performed on an outpatient basis, which means no hospital admission or general anesthesia is required.
We are world-renowned innovators of endoscopic laser surgery of the spine, a gentle, minimally invasive method.
Laser spine surgery at LSI has an extremely low infection rate of less than 0.1%; 40 times lower than the national hospital average infection rate of 4%.
Due to the tiny incision and short recovery time, many patients can be up and walking within an hour of surgery and back to normal activities in as little as a week.
More than 85% of our laser back surgery patients experience quality of life improvement within 3 months, while less than 50% of open back surgeries are considered successful.

Instead of suffering with back problems for years—and before you agree to invasive open back surgery—consider the benefits of laser-assisted spine procedures at Laser Spine Institute. We perform more minimally invasive spine surgeries monthly than any spine facility in the world, and we would be happy to answer your questions about how back pain relief is possible through our revolutionary 5-day outpatient process.
