Every spine is different. That’s why we don’t believe in one-size-fits-all treatments.
At the Spine Motion Institute at Rhea Medical Center, we take a personalized, multidisciplinary approach to diagnosing and treating spine conditions, helping you find the right solution for your pain and lifestyle.
Motion-Preserving, Non-Fusion Procedures
Motion-preserving, non-fusion procedures are surgeries that treat spine problems while keeping the bones in that part of the spine able to move, instead of permanently joining them together with a fusion.
Cervical Disc Replacement
Cervical disc replacement is a surgery that removes a damaged disc in the neck and replaces it with an artificial disc to relieve pressure on nerves while keeping the neck flexible and able to move normally.
Lumbar Disc Replacement
Lumbar disc replacement is a procedure that removes a worn-out or injured disc in the lower back and replaces it with an artificial one, helping reduce back pain while allowing normal spine movement.
Spinal Decompression
Spinal decompression surgery relieves pressure on the spinal cord or nerves by removing parts of bone, ligaments, or disc material that are pressing on them.
Foraminotomy
A foraminotomy is a surgery that opens or widens the space where a spinal nerve exits the spine, helping relieve pain, weakness, or numbness caused by nerve compression.
Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery
Minimally invasive spine surgery uses small incisions and special tools to repair spine problems with less muscle and tissue damage, which can mean faster recovery and less pain after surgery.
Laminectomy / Laminotomy
In a laminectomy, a surgeon removes the entire back part of a spinal bone (called the lamina) to take pressure off the nerves, while in a laminotomy only a small section of the lamina is removed to achieve the same goal.
Cervical Fusion Reversal
Cervical fusion reversal is a complex surgery that removes a previous neck fusion and replaces it with an artificial disc, helping some patients regain neck movement and reduce stiffness.
Facet Joint Replacement
Facet joint replacement is a surgery that removes worn or damaged joints in the spine and replaces them with artificial ones to restore stability and allow normal movement.
