Non-Surgical care is the "backbone" of the St. Mary's Spine Center. We employ a multitude of noninvasive treatment options to treat most patients, performing surgery as a last resort. These conservative treatment techniques can benefit a wide range of patients, from injured athletes or workers to older patients and from those who suffer acute back pain to patients who suffer persistent pain despite previous surgeries.

The Spine Center physicians who provide nonsurgical care are trained in the specialties of physical medicine and rehabilitation, osteopathy, and neurology. Many of them have received additional training in pain management and acupuncture and are nationally known.
