Our multidisciplinary team works closely with physical therapists, pain management experts, and rehabilitation professionals to provide end-to-end superior care throughout the process.

Conditions Treated

We treat a broad spectrum of spinal conditions, from chronic back pains and spinal deformities to spinal injuries.

  • Back and Neck Pain: Back and neck surgery might be an option if other treatments haven't worked and the pain is disabling. Neck surgery can significantly improve symptoms such as balance issues, pain, numbness in hands or fingers, or a chronic pinched nerve. Back surgery resolves the pain caused by a pinched nerve or other underlying issues.
  • Lumbar/Cervical Disc Prolapse: This condition, also known as herniated or slipped disc, occurs when the soft centre of the spinal disc pushes beyond the space of the intervertebral disc, thereby causing symptoms including pain, numbness, and neurological issues.
  • Sciatica and Radiating Pain: It is a condition that causes radiating pain along the sciatic nerve. This causes inflammation, pain, and often some numbness in the affected leg.
  • Lumbar Canal Stenosis: It is a narrowing of the spinal canal in your lower back that may cause pain or numbness in your legs.
  • Cervical and Lumbar Spondylosis: Spondylosis commonly occurs in the neck (cervical spondylosis) or lower back (lumbar spondylosis). In spondylosis, the discs between the vertebrae lose their cushioning effect, and the ligaments thicken.
  • Cervical Myelopathy and Thoracic Myelopathy: It is an injury to the spinal cord in the cervical (cervical myelopathy) or thoracic region (thoracic myelopathy) due to severe compression that may result from trauma, congenital stenosis, degenerative disease, or disc herniation.
  • Spinal Deformities: Spinal deformities are abnormal curves in the vertebral column that form the spine. Common adult spinal deformities are scoliosis, kyphosis, and lordosis.
  • Spinal Fractures and Spinal Cord Injuries: These can both happen when the spine is damaged. A spinal cord injury is damage to the bundle of nerves and nerve fibres that send and receive signals from the brain. A spinal fracture is a break in one of the vertebrae due to injury and trauma.
  • Spinal Infections: A spinal infection is a rare but often serious form of the disease that occurs when bacteria, fungi, or viruses invade the spinal tissues.
  • Spine Tumours: A spinal tumour is a growth that develops within the spinal canal or within the bones of your spine.
  • Osteoporosis: Osteoporosis is a bone disease that develops when bone mineral density and bone mass decrease or when the structure and strength of bone change.
