After only a few weeks of treatment, previous research has shown outstanding results in relieving the debilitating pain caused by degenerative, bulging, herniated or ruptured discs, as well as sciatica, posterior facet syndrome, spinal stenosis, and many failed back surgery cases.  Most patients are able to return to normal levels of acivity at work or play in just a few weeks time. If you have any of the above named conditions, you are a candidate for SpineMed Therapy.

Spinal Decompression with the SpineMed Table has proven to be safe and without side effects or complications once abnormal conditions have been ruled out.  Patients with conditions that compromise the integrity of the spinal column such as gross osteoporosis, spondylolisthesis grade 2 and above, fractures, tumors or congenital  pars defects are not candidates for Spinal Decompression.  Previous spinal surgery is not contraindicated unless hardware (screws, pins, rods, etc.) has been implanted in the back.

A thorough consultation, health history, exam and review of MRI's and X-Rays, precedes any treatment at Palo Alto SpineMed.  If you'd like to schedule an appointment, call us today at 650-328-2104.
