Back Pain Relief—Laser Spine Institute Offers Relief from Chronic Back Pain during Our 5-Day Process

If you’re like most people with chronic back pain, your symptoms have lasted for years, or maybe decades. You may not even remember a time in your life that you didn’t have some form of pain, numbness, tingling, or weakness caused by a back condition like bulging discs, sciatica, or arthritis of the spine. What would you say if we told you that back pain relief is possible through a gentle, outpatient, 5-day process at Laser Spine Institute?

Our patients at LSI are often amazed that, after dealing with back problems for most of their lives, they can experience back pain relief in less than a week. Whether the discomfort comes from bone spurs, herniated discs, degenerative disc disease, failed open back surgery, or a host of other complications, LSI’s 5-day process can bring relief to a range of back and spinal conditions. Here is a brief explanation of how our typical 5-day process works:

  • Day One—The process begins with a complete physical including lab work, electrocardiogram (EKG), and CT or MRI scans as needed.
  • Day Two—On the second day, you will sit down with a spinal surgeon from LSI to review the results of your physical and discuss which outpatient procedures will provide the best treatment for your condition(s).
  • Day Three—On the third day, you will meet with your LSI nurse, anesthesiologist, and surgeon. Then the procedure is performed.
  • Day Four—The fourth day is reserved for physical therapy. You will meet with a physical therapist who will formulate a unique plan to match your needs and then you will begin therapy. You also will have a post-op visit with an LSI physician.
  • Day Five—Your last day includes more physical therapy and then you are released from LSI.

From the minute you enter LSI, you will be treated with the utmost care and compassion by our highly experienced and accommodating staff. Best of all, for many of LSI’s patients back pain relief begins on the day of surgery when trapped spinal nerves are carefully released from diseased bone and tissue.

To learn more about the miracle of LSI’s 5-day process for back pain relief and to find out if you are a candidate for outpatient endoscopic laser back treatment, please contact us today for a free MRI or CT scan review.
