At Inland Northwest Spine & Neurosurgery, the most important outcome is patient satisfaction and that doesn’t just mean surgery. It means collaboratively finding the best path for each patient. We spend the time needed to discuss all available options, and often that starts with non-surgical treatments like Physical Therapy.

Physical Therapy can help reduce pain, improve mobility, and strengthen the muscles that support your spine. We don’t rush to surgery, we explore every other option first, making sure the approach we choose is truly what’s best for you. When surgery is necessary, it’s only after careful consideration, ensuring the best possible outcome and recovery.

Call Inland Northwest Spine to see if Physical Therapy is the right step for you. (208)667-1376.

At Inland Northwest Spine, we know that a healthy spine starts from within. Did you know your diet can play a big role in spinal health? Just like you fuel your body for energy, the right foods can help keep your spine strong, flexible, and resilient. Here are some spine-loving foods to add to your plate:

𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗳𝘆 𝗚𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗻𝘀 – Spinach, kale, and Swiss chard are packed with calcium and antioxidants that help maintain strong bones and reduce inflammation.

𝗙𝗮𝘁𝘁𝘆 𝗙𝗶𝘀𝗵 – Salmon, mackerel, and sardines are rich in omega-3s, promoting joint health and protecting your spinal discs.

𝗕𝗲𝗿𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀 – Blueberries, strawberries, and raspberries fight oxidative stress, which is linked to age-related spine degeneration.

𝗡𝘂𝘁𝘀 & 𝗦𝗲𝗲𝗱𝘀 – Almonds, walnuts, and flaxseeds provide vitamins, minerals, and healthy fats to support overall wellness!

𝗬𝗼𝗴𝘂𝗿𝘁 – Calcium-rich yogurt helps maintain bone density, keeping your vertebrae strong. Greek yogurt also adds a protein boost!

𝗧𝘂𝗿𝗺𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗰 – This golden spice contains curcumin, a natural anti-inflammatory that can help reduce back pain. Add it to soups, stews, or smoothies for extra flavor and benefits.

A healthy spine starts from within! By choosing nutrient-rich foods, you’re giving your back the care it deserves.

At Inland Northwest Spine, we know your spine works hard all day and quality sleep is how it recovers. Lying down relieves pressure, letting your vertebrae decompress and your discs rehydrate like sponges. Sleep also repairs muscles, ligaments, and tendons while reducing inflammation that can contribute to pain.

The right sleep setup matters. Supportive mattresses and pillows keep your spine aligned, and sleeping on your back with knee support or on your side with a pillow between your knees helps maintain natural posture. Avoid sleeping on your stomach, it strains your neck and back.

Prioritize your spine’s recovery and keep your back strong. Schedule an appointment with Inland Northwest Spine at (208) 667-1376. Your spine will thank you.

At Inland Northwest Spine, we know how important your spine is, it’s literally what keeps you upright, moving, and living an active life. Your spine supports your body, protects your spinal cord, and allows you to bend, twist, and move with ease.

Your spine is made up of 24 vertebrae, small bones stacked on top of each other that protect the spinal cord and bear your body’s weight. Between the vertebrae are discs, soft cushions that absorb pressure, and ligaments and tendons that hold everything together. The spine also has facet joints, which give the vertebrae flexibility to move against each other.

The spine has three main segments:

Cervical (neck) – 7 vertebrae
Thoracic (mid-back) – 12 vertebrae
Lumbar (lower back) – usually 5 vertebrae

Below the lumbar spine, the sacrum connects your spine to your pelvis, and the sacroiliac (SI) joints help absorb shock and provide stability. Every part of your spine plays a role in keeping you healthy and active.

If you’re experiencing back pain, stiffness, or discomfort, Inland Northwest Spine is here to help. Your spine deserves expert care, because when your spine is healthy, your whole body thrives!

Call us at (208)66-1376.

We are incredibly grateful for our patients and honored each time someone shares their story. This testimonial is a powerful reminder of why we do what we do at Inland Northwest Spine every day.

Patient Testimonial:
“I have been a patient with Dr. Blaty for several years. I have struggled with lower back issues for more than 10 years. Finally took Dr’s advice and had a lumbar fusion. I cannot say enough positive things about a robotic fusion surgery. Scared to death to do it, but after much research decided to go forward with it. I’m so glad I did! It changed my life… It literally saved my life! I struggled for so many years not being active and not even leaving my house. Now, I feel like I’m living again! Thank you Dr. Blaty, you are the best!”
– Adrienne H.

Thank you, for trusting Dr. Blaty and the team at Inland Northwest Spine.

At Inland Northwest Spine, visiting a spine surgeon does not necessarily mean you're headed straight for surgery. In fact, most of our patients are initially offered non-surgical treatment options, such as spine injections, referrals to physical therapy or chiropractic care, and expert education on spine health. https://inlandnwspine.com/for-patients/faqs/
Our team carefully evaluates every case, discussing all available paths before considering surgical intervention. For more information about the options, give us a call at (208)667-1376.

Inland Northwest Spine recently received this heartfelt letter from a patient who wanted to share their remarkable experience. We are honored by their words and grateful for the opportunity to be part of their healing journey.

Full Letter:

"After this surgery, when I awakened in recovery, I had no pain at all! As the day wore on, I kept expecting the pain to come. It never did. I was able to stand up and walk right away with no pain or dizziness. With all 8 of my previous back surgeries, this was not the case. I would be dizzy, sick to my stomach and in unbearable pain. Not this time! The pain never came. None!

There were many exceptional nurses and care-givers that came and went throughout the day of surgery and that night and the next day. I have never been treated so well by anyone in my life!

Each and every one of the staff that entered my room actually really cared about me and my comfort. They All took excellent care of me. Even the Pharmacist came to see me to go over my medications to make double sure everything was perfect!

Dr. Doug Blaty and his surgical team are the best in the entire world. To accomplish the repair they did in my neck and for me to come away from it with zero pain AND for many other things in my body to have also recovered, is truly a miracle.

Both of my hands are completely working again! I have lots of feeling in them and I am able to type again and sign my name normally again and have gained a lot of strength back in both of them!"
