Spine Treatment

At Atlantic Health System’s Spine Care Program, orthopedic surgeons and neurosurgeons collaborate to offer spine, neck and back pain solutions that achieve the longest-lasting results with the least amount of invasiveness.

Treatment is personalized to each patient and in many cases, pain can be eliminated with physical rehabilitation, integrative medicine and medication. In some cases, however, surgery may be required.

Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery

Morristown Medical Center, Overlook Medical Center and Chilton Medical Center use the latest minimally invasive spine (MIS) surgical techniques, like the O-arm® Intra-operative Imaging System and the StealthStation® Surgical Navigation System. The highly-precise imaging offered by this technology, coupled with the use of flexible surgical instruments, helps our surgeons avoid touching sensitive areas, such as the spinal cord, and improves outcomes. Patients can typically expect less blood loss and tissue damage and a faster recovery.
