Spine (Back and Neck)

The back and neck are the greatest sources of pain in our bodies. Most people will experience back pain in the lumbar region—the lower back—at some point in their lives. Other areas of the spine are the thoracic (middle) and cervical (neck).

Experts at Webster Orthopedics provide surgical and nonsurgical treatment for back pain and neck pain, and injuries and disorders. Our conservative approach includes nonsurgical treatment methods such as physical therapy, medication, exercise, and spinal injections. Most back pain conditions can be effectively treated through nonsurgical treatment. If surgery is necessary, our spine surgeon will perform the least invasive procedures that promote a safe and effective return to active living.

Scoliosis

At Webster Orthopedics, our spine specialists are trained and experienced in treating scoliosis, in both adults and children. Each of our three spine specialists has completed advanced fellowship training of the spine and is knowledgeable in the latest advanced treatment options.

Scoliosis is often congenital or can be caused by poor muscle control and weakness related to diseases such as cerebral palsy and muscular dystrophy. The type of treatment a patient receives depends on various factors, including the cause of scoliosis, the size and location of the curve, and how much growing the patient is expected to experience. Treatment options include bracing and surgery.
