Spondylarthrosis Treatment

Spondylarthrosis is a disease of the intervertebral (facet) joints, also referred to as facet syndrome. Degenerative changes in the intervertebral disc lead to its gradual loss of thickness, thus increasing the load on the intervertebral joints. This leads to the aging and destruction of the articular cartilage.

Most often, spondylarthrosis of the lumbar spine is reported clinically. This form of spondylarthrosis is characterized by the aching pain in the lumbar area. The pain usually occurs after a prolonged stay in the inactive position (lying down or sitting) as well as during the change of rest to motion. The pain is accompanied by a feeling of stiffness in the lumbar spine and stops after a short workout.

At the Ortoсenter Company, which specializes in the treatment of back pain, spondylarthrosis treatment is carried out using unique cutting-edge techniques. One of the most effective spondylarthrosis therapies used in our company is thermocoagulation. It is based on the punctuate cutting-off of nerve endings responsible for pain.
