Spine Treatment

At Banner Brain & Spine, our goal is to help you find relief and return to the activities you enjoy. Whenever possible, we take a non-surgical approach first, using treatments like physical therapy and pain management. If these do not improve your condition, our experts will discuss surgical options with you in a supportive, step-by-step way. 

Most patients do not need spine surgery. But if you do, you can trust our multidisciplinary team of neurosurgeons, orthopedic specialists, physical therapists and pain management experts to guide you before, during and after treatment. We’ll make sure you understand your options and feel confident in the care plan you choose. 

Non-surgical spine treatment options 

Surgery is not the first step for most spine conditions. At Banner Brain & Spine, we offer many non-surgical treatments to reduce pain, improve mobility, and help you return to daily life. Our team will evaluate your condition and recommend the safest and most effective options. 

Common non-surgical treatments include: 

• Physical therapy: Customized exercises to improve strength, flexibility, and posture. 
• Pain management: Medications, injections, and other therapies to relieve discomfort. 
• Lifestyle changes: Guidance on ergonomics, activity modifications, and healthy habits. 
• Minimally invasive procedures: Image-guided treatments that may help avoid surgery.
