| At Southwest Spine Center, we treat each patient on an individual, case by case basis which allows us to take a unique approach to health care. We treat the patient rather then the symptom. Here are some of the issues we have had great success treating: |
|
|
|
 |
Herniated or Bulging Disc
One or more of the shock absorbers in the spine (known as discs) are squeezed out of normal position, putting pressure on nerves in and around the spine which can cause pain and other symptoms. If you have chronic low back or neck pain, you may have a herniated or bulging disc. Find out more. |

Degenerative Disc Disease
Deterioration of the discs between the vertebrae with the main contributors being age, injury and repetitive motion. |

|
|
 |
Scoliosis
Large abnormal side-to-side curves in the spinal column can put pressure on internal organs and can accelerate painful spinal conditions such as degenerative disc disease. |

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, a painful and disabling disorder characterized by inflammation and swelling in the tendons that run through the narrow carpal tunnel in the wrist, and one of the most common of repetitive stress injuries. This condition causes pain, dysfunction and can cause the loss of proper function in the hand, wrist and arm. |

Fibromyalgia
Fibromyalgia is a common rheumatic syndrome indicating widespread pain in fibrous tissues, muscles, tendons, and other connective tissues, resulting in painful muscles without weakness. The cause of this disorder is unknown, although it is a chronic problem that can come and go for years. The nine paired red circles are recognized as common tender points associated with fibromyalgia. |
