Trying to Avoid Spinal Surgery with Spinal Decompression? - Dr. Brian Prieto

Exploring Non Spinal Surgery Options using Spinal Decompression? Dr. Brian Prieto Yorba Linda Chiropractor Explains

Welcome to Prieto Chiropractic and Spinal Decompression Center in the heart of Yorba Linda, California, and serving the North Orange County area. I'm Dr. Brian Prieto, and today we're addressing a critical question I often receive: "Do I need spinal surgery?"

Many patients who visit us are actively seeking alternatives to surgery, hoping to exhaust all possible non-surgical treatments before considering this significant step. The decision to undergo spinal surgery can be complex, as the outcomes can vary. Some patients experience great success, particularly with procedures like microscopic discectomies, which involve minimal tissue disruption using advanced microscopic techniques.

However, other more invasive surgeries, such as those involving the insertion of cages or metal for stabilization and fusion, can have mixed results. It's important to understand both the potential benefits and the risks associated with these surgical options.

At our center, we specialize in non-surgical treatments, particularly spinal decompression therapy using the DRX 9000 system. Since 2005, this technology has helped a significant number of our patients avoid spinal surgery. Our website features numerous testimonials from patients who have benefited from this approach.

While spinal decompression therapy has been a successful alternative for many, it is crucial to note that some cases still require surgical intervention. If you're contemplating whether surgery is the right option for you, it’s essential to explore all available treatments. Consulting with a specialist in spinal decompression can help determine if you might be a candidate for non-surgical therapies aimed at alleviating your symptoms.
