Have you been told you need back surgery for a “slipped” or herniated disc?  Every year millions of people undergo painful and expensive lumbar spine surgeries.  Frequently, this does not help their original pain, and they are left with other painful conditions such as decreased back motion, decreased activity levels, and chronic muscle spasms.

As you can see in the video below, cutting away the supporting fibers of the disc may weaken the structure, thus leading to more problems down the road.  To see what the Regenexx DISC procedure has to offer, click on the short videos below.

The Regenexx DISC Procedure, the Back Surgery Alternative

Using your body’s own stem cells, the Regenexx DISC procedure can reduce the size of bulging or herniated lumbar discs, offering relief from painful conditions such as:

• Low back pain
• Buttock and leg pain
• Numbness and tingling in your legs and/or feet

The procedure is simply and injection of your own stem cells into the damaged disc and is thus minimally invasive with a very limited recovery period.

What makes the procedure better than traditional back surgery?

-Most patients with low back surgery are “on their back” on the couch, recovering for week to months.  Not so with the Regenexx DISC procedure.  In this procedure, there are a few days to a week to soreness and then your OK for activity as tolerated.

-Traditional low back surgery usually weakens the disc, the Regenexx DISC procedure has consistently demonstrated evidence on MRI of healing the back of the disc.

-Traditional low back surgery can cut through important muscles and has a high complication rate.  In facet, depending on the type of surgery, serious complications can be as much as 3-5 people in 100.  Since the Regenexx DISC procedure is performed through an injection, there is no damage to important back muscles!  In addition, the possible complications are similar to other types of injections.
