Lumbar Dynamic Stabilization
from $3,500 to $6,500
While spinal fusion surgery has proven to be an effective treatment, Lumbar Dynamic Stabilization offers a less invasive yet effective method. It is also far more affordable, with a cost savings of roughly $50,000 compared to traditional spinal treatments.
Lumbar Dynamic Stabilization works by using flexible implants that help stabilize the lumbar area while retaining the natural spinal anatomy. The treatment changes the weight-bearing pattern of the spine’s motion to control any abnormal movements while maintaining the mobility of the affected spinal segment. This prevents further disc degeneration and can even promote healing.
Spinal fusion surgery is a common procedure for those suffering from back pain and spinal issues. It’s especially helpful for patients with diseases such as degenerative disc disease, spondylolisthesis, or scoliosis. The procedure works by adding a bone graft to an area of the spine, which creates a biological response that causes the bone graft to grow between two vertebral segments and fuse together. Ultimately, this fusion will stop any movement at that segment.
