Spine Care

At the Tahoe Center for Orthopedics we establish an accurate diagnosis quickly and develop a plan of care that fits the needs of each patient suffering from a spinal injury or pain.

Stylized x-ray of the spine It is our practice to exhaust every appropriate treatment option before considering surgery. However, when a problem is not corrected with prescribed rest, exercise, conditioning programs, or physical therapy, further diagnostic testing may be employed to precisely identify the key factors causing the patient's discomfort.

If a surgical procedure becomes the right choice, our team of specialists is trained to effectively correct problems related to:

Low back pain
Traumatic and overuse injuries to the spine
Spinal deformities both acquired and congenital
Whiplash injuries
Systemic diseases affecting spinal function
Degenerative spinal conditions
Spondylolysis and spondylolisthesis
Herniated disc
Soft tissue sprains, strains, and contusions
Work-related back pain
Mechanical back dysfunction
Fractures, dislocations, subluxations
