Spinal Fusion Alternative at Laser Spine Institute: Reasons Why You Should Choose LSI
As soon as your doctor recommended spinal fusion as a treatment for your back pain, you probably had concerns about the possible risks of this invasive, open-back operation. The hospital stay, long incision, hours of surgery, and months of recovery time are bad enough to endure, but those are just a few of the many drawbacks of spinal fusion surgery. It also might leave you with limited range of motion, a dangerous infection, and additional damage to surrounding parts of your back or neck.
The mission at Laser Spine Institute is to offer successful alternatives to spinal fusion and other invasive open back and neck surgeries. Our gentle, minimally invasive laser procedures have provided pain relief to thousands of patients who otherwise might have opted for spinal fusion surgery. Our patients chose Laser Spine Institute because:
- Our endoscopic procedures are performed on an outpatient basis—you can be up and walking within an hour after surgery.
- No hospitalization and no general anesthesia are required.
- We do not fuse vertebrae, nor do we implant any hardware such as plates or screws.
- More than 85% of our patients have reported relief from their pain within 3 months of their laser back surgery.
- Our risk of infection is 40 times less than the national hospital average.
- We strive to provide our patients and their families with a 5-star experience before, during, and after surgery.
- We treat a wide range of neck and back ailments.
