Radiculopathy Treatments at Laser Spine Institute

Radiculopathy Treatments at Laser Spine Institute

If you suffer from any type of radiculopathy and conservative treatments like physical therapy, traction, and over-the-counter medications haven’t relieved your symptoms, you may want to consider treatment at Laser Spine Institute. We perform several procedures that relieve radiculopathy, also known as the symptoms experienced from nerve compression near the spine such as numbness, pain and tingling. These treatments work by removing or shrinking the tissue that’s pressing on nerves and causing the radiculopathy. While there are several traditional surgeries that can also achieve the same result, they usually require a large incision, general anesthesia, and a hospital stay, all of which increase your chances for risks like infection. At LSI, our procedures are endoscopic so they are minimally invasive and come with a lower chance of side effects than traditional surgery.

Our treatments include:

  • Foraminotomy
  • Laminotomy
  • Percutaneous endoscopic discectomy
  • Facet thermal ablation

These procedures are used to treat common back conditions including bulging disc, herniated disc, bone spurs, foraminal stenosis, pinched nerves, sciatica, and more.

If you’d like more information on our radiculopathy treatments, contact LSI today. We’ll review your CT scan or MRI for free to determine if you are a good candidate for laser surgery.
