Most patients with spinal conditions can be managed through non-surgical approaches. Recommendations may include physical therapy, lifestyle modification, medication, acupuncture and spinal injections.
Surgery is considered only when non-surgical interventions prove ineffective, there is a progression of symptoms, or the patient's condition is not responsive to non-surgical treatments.
The goals of surgical treatment are to relieve symptoms, correct spinal deformities and stabilise the spine. The use of minimally invasive techniques has led to a reduction in post-operative pain, shorter hospital stays and quicker return to daily activities. These include techniques such as, minimally invasive approaches, tubular procedures and endoscopic procedures.
We also offer motion-preserving procedures such as disc replacements in the cervical and lumbar spine. State-of-the-art technologies, including operative microscopes, intraoperative neuromonitoring and intraoperative imaging/navigation systems such as the O-arm, contribute to improved patient safety.
