Spine Center
Other Services

The Spine Center offers not only surgical treatment, but also a host of other services including:

Neurology
As the medical specialists who deal with the brain, nerves, and muscles, neurologists are particularly adept at treating both acute and chronic pain. Neurological diseases include conditions such as multiple sclerosis, stroke, epilepsy, peripheral neuropathy, restless leg syndrome, migraine headache, carpal tunnel syndrome, and chronic regional pain syndrome. The neurologist on the Spine Center staff helps diagnose these difficult cases and determine appropriate treatment.

Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (PMR)
The Spine Center has two board-certified physiatrists on staff who are trained in the diagnosis and nonsurgical treatment of musculoskeletal and neurological injuries. Functional improvement is a goal of their treatment plan. They coordinate treatment options among providers to ensure comprehensive care within a team setting.

Osteopathic Manipulative Medicine (OMM)
An increasing body of medical literature supports the effectiveness of this century-old manual healing approach. OMM, which helps boost the body's natural ability to heal itself, can be an effective component in treating injuries, particularly those resulting from motor vehicle accidents, falls, and other types of trauma. Our physicians frequently are asked to speak both nationally and internationally on the subject of OMM.


Acupuncture

This time-tested Eastern healing tradition can play an important role in conjunction with other treatment modalities. Performed by a physician, acupuncture is useful in treating conditions such as muscle and tendon injuries.
