Lumbar Microdecompression

Lumbar microdecompression is a surgical technique designed to alleviate pressure on compressed nerves in the lower back. This procedure can effectively treat various conditions, including:

• Herniated or bulging discs
• Spinal stenosis
• Bone spurs
• Sciatica
• Degenerative disc disease

By removing small portions of bone or disc material that are pressing on nerves, we can help reduce pain, numbness, and weakness in the lower back and legs. Our approach focuses on minimizing tissue damage and promoting faster recovery.
