Pain in the back and spine greatly impacts a person’s quality of life.
The back and spine is complex – made up of many small parts comprised of individual muscles, ligaments, joints, cartilage, connective tissue, bones, discs, and nerves.
Back pain caused by disease, injury or trauma, has the power to diminish quality of life. A specialist will focus on the task of ensuring complete back and spine health so patients can return to their active lifestyle and do the things they love to do.
