Many spinal conditions can initially be managed without surgery. Depending on the diagnosis, treatment may include:
Anti-inflammatory medications, analgesics and muscle relaxants to manage acute pain, reduce inflammation and facilitate comfortable rehabilitation.
A guided physical therapy program focused on core strengthening, spinal flexibility, posture correction and improving functional mobility.
A comprehensive, step-by-step rehabilitation regimen incorporating active exercise therapy, spinal reconditioning and graded functional progression.
Guidance on appropriate activity pacing, posture and movement modifications to reduce spinal load and prevent symptom recurrence.
Practical advice on workplace posture, workstation ergonomics, lifting techniques and sitting habits to protect the spine.
Weight management, regular low-impact exercise, smoking cessation and wellness strategies to support long-term spinal health.
Assessment and medical management of osteoporosis and metabolic bone disease to maintain vertebral strength and reduce fracture risk.
Targeted, minimally invasive interventional procedures to manage acute pain episodes and enable progressive active rehabilitation.
Targeted diagnostic and therapeutic injection of local anaesthetic and anti-inflammatory medication directly around an irritated nerve root.
High-precision delivery of targeted anti-inflammatory medication into the epidural space near specific compressed spinal nerves.
Anti-inflammatory medication delivered through the sacral hiatus to the epidural space to alleviate radiating pain and nerve inflammation.
Diagnostic and therapeutic injections targeting the facet joints as a source of localized mechanical back or neck pain.
Surgery is considered when there is an appropriate indication and when the expected benefits outweigh the potential risks.
