If you have back pain, you’re not alone. Four out of five people will experience lower back pain sometime in their lives. If you have a dull or aching neck and back pain that causes numbness or “pins and needles” in your arms, legs, calves or buttocks, you may have spinal stenosis. Stenosis is a narrowing in the spinal canal that carries nerves to the legs and arms. As the space in the spine shrinks, the nerves passing through it are compressed resulting in arm, back and leg pain. Come to a free educational seminar to learn about treatment options for spinal stenosis. Our back surgeons will discuss minimally invasive fusion techniques, artificial disc replacements, bone morphogenic protein (BMP), and non-surgical treatments. They will suggest when you should see a surgeon for your neck and back pain.

Space is limited. Please make a reservation here or calling 925.275.8230.
