Exploring the MILD Procedure: A Modern Solution for Back Pain

If you're struggling with lumbar spinal stenosis, the Minimally Invasive Lumbar Decompression (MILD) procedure could be a game-changer. This innovative technique offers a less invasive alternative to traditional spinal surgery, designed to relieve nerve compression in the lower back.

What is MILD?

MILD involves a small incision in the lower back through which excess bone and tissue are removed to relieve pressure on the spinal nerves. Using real-time X-ray guidance, this procedure is precise and minimally disruptive.

Benefits

MILD is often performed on an outpatient basis, allowing patients to go home the same day. For more details and to see if MILD is right for you, give us a call today!
