During this minimally invasive procedure, which is approved by the FDA and covered by Medicare, a small spacer is implanted between the bony structures of the spine (spinous processes). These spacers relieve pressure on spinal nerves, alleviating back and leg pain while standing and walking.<\/p>\n Anyone with symptoms of lumbar spinal stenosis may be a candidate for The Vertiflex Procedure. Call for an appointment to determine whether this option is right for you.<\/p>\n The Vertiflex Procedure is very effective in reducing pain related to spinal stenosis. In fact, in one of the most rigorous of spinal studies, The Vertiflex Procedure was proven effective for patients with mild to moderate spinal stenosis and for patients with severe stenosis who are not surgical candidates. Click this link to review this five-year study, published in 2018, in the Journal of Pain Research<\/a>.<\/p>\n Yes, the procedure has been proven to provide long term relief in patients with mild to moderate spinal stenosis.<\/p>\n You will be positioned lying on your stomach on the procedure table. The lower back is cleaned and then numbed with a local anesthetic; you will also receive intravenous anesthesia by an anesthetist. Your surgeon will make a small incision in your lower back and insert the spacer between two spinous processes (e.g., L4-L5) under fluoroscopy (X-ray) guidance. The procedure takes approximately 15-30 minutes.<\/p>\n Generally, this procedure is both safe and effective. As with all procedures, there are some risks, including:<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_button button_url=”\/contact-us” button_text=”MAKE AN APPOINTMENT” _builder_version=”3.24″ custom_button=”on”
