Vertiflex is a surgical procedure that treats spinal stenosis by expanding the spinal canal. The spinal canal is the space that houses the spinal cord, connecting the vertebrae in the lower back all the way down to the sacrum. In people who suffer from spinal stenosis, the spinal canal becomes narrowed, compressing the spinal cord and causing a variety of unpleasant symptoms, including pain, weakness, numbness, and difficulty walking.

A common back and spine problem is herniated or bulging discs. Nearly everyone will know someone who has experienced a herniated disc at some point in their lives. It's painful and we hope you're one of the fortunate ones who don't have to endure it. In many cases, these discs will heal on their own with no long-term consequences.

Fat pad impingement is a condition where the knee joint presents pain because of inflammation around the aptly named fat pad. It is exactly what it sounds like: a pad of fat behind the kneecap and in between where the femur "connects" to the tibia. It's a little more complicated than that, but that's the gist of it.

Shoulder pain is probably the most common physical complaints from people working in an office environment. It’s also one of the most annoying orthopaedic issues you can have simply because it makes tasks like combing your hair or putting on a sweater extremely difficult. Even with regular stretching and exercise, you may find that your neck and shoulder pain continues to get worse.
