We're wrapping up Spine Focus Month with another option for finding relief from persistent back and neck pain.

When rest, physical therapy, or medication aren't providing enough relief, spinal injections may be an appropriate next step for some patients. These minimally invasive treatments can help reduce pain and inflammation, improve mobility, and even help identify the source of your pain.

In our latest blog, Dr. Zakko and Dr. Lehn break down how spinal injections work, who may benefit, potential risks, and what to expect before and after treatment.

The right treatment looks different for everyone. Our Spine team is here to help you understand your options and find the path that's right for you.

Nearly 150 patient reviews and a rating we’re incredibly proud of! ⭐ Dr. Philip Zakko is a fellowship-trained orthopaedic spine surgeon specializing in both minimally invasive and traditional approaches to spine care.

Don’t just take our word for it. See what his patients have to say! 👏

🎒🏈 Back-to-school means back to sports, backpacks, and busy schedules. It's also a great time to prioritize spine health.

Whether you're heading into the classroom or onto the field, these simple tips can help protect your back:

✔️ Wear both backpack straps and keep the load to 10 to 15% of your body weight.
✔️ Warm up and stretch before practices and games.
✔️ Focus on proper lifting techniques in the gym and during training.
✔️ Build core strength to help support your spine and improve stability.
✔️ Don't ignore persistent back or neck pain. Early evaluation can help prevent a minor issue from becoming a bigger one.

A strong, healthy spine helps students and athletes perform their best all school year long.
