Nucleoplasty Procedures


What is it?
Nucleoplasty is an option for those people who have failed conservative care, and in many cases provides an alternative to open surgery. It is a minimally invasive procedure that allows you to go home on the same day of the procedure. 


Will it help me?
Nucleoplasty allows for controlled tissue removal. This minimizes the possibility of removing too much tissue or tissue beyond the targeted area which can lead to disc degeneration. The procedure does not rely on heat for tissue removal, and does not introduce excessive heat that may cause tissue damage. A minimally invasive approach using only a small needle (1mm or 1/20th inch) minimizes scarring or annular disc damage that may be caused by larger or more aggressive devices. 

Nucleoplasty has successfully become a leading method for performing minimally invasive disc decompression and is a leading choice for physicians around the world.

Medical Pain Management

At The Disc Treatment Center, our Pain Management service aims to monitor and provide pain relief through non-pharmaceutical and non-surgical methods such as physical exercise, physical *therapy, and observation. "Pain management, also known as pain medicine, draws on many disciplines in science and the healing arts to systematically study pain, its prevention, evaluation, diagnosis and treatment, as well as the rehabilitation of painful disorders. The pain may be the result of an injury, surgical intervention, cancer or other particular cause, or may constitute the primary problem, as in neuropathic pain and headache. In spine and musculoskeletal cases, pain management is usually distinguished from surgical treatment, and is employed as an alternative to surgery as part of an aggressive conservative care program, or after surgery to cope with residual or recalcitrant pain. Pain management and the techniques it uses also help to identify the source of neck and back pain, determine the areas to be addressed surgically, and rehabilitate the patient after surgery.
