Spinal Decompression

SPINAL DECOMPRESSION OVERVIEW

Spinal Decompression Surgery in Chennai:

  • Spinal cord compression is also called Cervical Spondylotic Myelopathy which is caused by extreme pressure on the spinal cord or nerve roots of the spine.
  • The spinal cord comprises bundle of nerves which runs down the middle of the back. It sends messages and reverts it from the brain to the muscles and soft tissues.
  • The spinal cord compression occurs anywhere in the spine, including the neck (cervical spine) and the torso (thoracic spine). 
  • The person who handles the spinal decompression surgery is termed as an orthopaedic surgeonor neurosurgeon as there are experts in dealing with the musculoskeletal problems. 
  • During the procedure the surgeon makes a small cut over the spine to insert the retractor which pushes the muscles and tissue out instead of cutting them. It remains in the same place during the entire procedure, creating a tunnel to the spine. This is easy for the surgeon to provide treatment.

We Have Created Our Care Practice Specially To Fit Your Needs

From trouble sleeping to work stress to anxiety to depression, we all have difficulty managing our emotions at times. It’s part of being human. And addressing these issues is a vital part of what we do as a primary care practice, because your emotional well-being is essential to your overall health and wellness.

We’ve redesigned the doctor’s office experience to fit your life, put you at ease, and treat you as a whole person. We create safe and inviting spaces,

ask meaningful questions, give you time to talk, and listen without judgment. Then we work with you on a plan to help you feel your best — whether you want to sleep better, feel calmer, worry less, or get a better handle on your mood.

To continue shedding a light on mental health issues, we teamed up with the award-winning musicians from Bear and a Banjo to create a song showing people they’re not alone. See how the project came to life in the video above — and if you’re struggling, we can help.
