Spinal Arthritis Treatment
Spinal Arthritis Treatment
Over 80 million Americans wake up with arthritis pain each day. At least 25% of all doctor visits are because of symptoms associated with arthritis. Dr. Burford is dedicated to providing the highest quality of conservative treatment of spinal arthritis for men and women. Our integrated approach includes:
- Quick and accurate diagnosis/evaluation.
- Functional Physical medicine.
- Positive patient outcomes utilizing advanced treatment protocols for spine pain and other related symptoms.
- Other minimally invasive procedures are offered in some locations through “patient care specialty alliances” for treatment of knee , shoulders, ankle and back pain.
- State-of-the-art bracing , LSO (LumboSacral Orthosis or back races) and AFO (Ankle Foot Orthosis, or ankle braces) are incorporated as indicated, which help to relieve arthritis symptoms (arthritic pain) while restoring function.
Arthritis is seldom treatable by surgery, but at Burford Spinal Rehab there is hope for people in pain. Our specialized treatment protocols are conservative, aggressive and effective to reduce compression syndromes that affect the disc and articulating joints, resulting in arthritis pain relief. Proper diagnosis and early aggressive intervention of appropriate treatment protocols is important. You will be guided toward certain activities of daily living that may lower your risk for developing arthritis.
Our spinal arthritis treatment protocols are designed to reduce compression syndromes that affect the disc and articulating joints, therefore reducing arthritis pain. As the muscles weaken over time the spinal vertebrae may begin to move erratically. Experts speculate that this erratic motion contributes to the wear-and-tear process seen in the joints. Our office uses specialized non-invasive protocols whenever possible for pain management through improved paraspinal (adjacent to the spine) strength to aid in the restabilization of weakening support structures.
