South Carolina Spine Center

South Carolina Spine Center is a Spine Center of Excellence that emphasizes nonsurgical approaches t

Residents across South Carolina or North Carolina who suffer from an attack of back or neck pain often travel to many cities and clinics in their quest for relief of pain symptoms. Along the way, they can receive treatments, diagnostic studies, contradictory advice and treatment that is often way too aggressive for the symptoms they display. South Carolina Spine Center recognizes the national trend in spine care is to take a Center of Excellence approach, with a multidisciplinary team of spine specialists working together under one roof, emphasizing nonsurgical options. Our spine center located in Greenwood includes the expertise of a fellowship-trained and board-certified physical medicine and rehabilitation physician, Dr. Karl Boellert, and three fellowship-trained spine surgeons. Fellowship-training is the highest level of medical education possible. Within the same building are spine therapists who help many patients back to activity without surgery. All the necessary diagnostic testing from x-rays to MRI, and non-operative treatment is provided at the same location. This is a welcome alternative to the typical fragmented approach to spine care, and eliminates the need for multiple referrals, delayed care, driving around town — and confusion and miscommunication among the specialists involved.

Minimally invasive surgical techniques provide the opportunity to successfully treat back problems with minimal interruption to the patient’s regular, active lifestyle. Results achieved from these methods have been proven to match that of conventional "open surgery." The surgeon makes smaller incisions, sometimes only a half-inch in length. Through these tiny incisions, the surgeon inserts special surgical instruments and probes in order to access the damaged disc in the spine. By using minimally invasive techniques, access and repair to the damaged disc or vertebrae is achieved without harming nearby muscles and tissues. Other benefits of minimally invasive techniques include shorter surgery duration and recovery time, less visible scars and reduced pain and blood loss.

A natural byproduct of aging is the loss of resiliency in spinal discs and a greater tendency for them to herniate, especially when we lift heavy objects. When a natural disc herniates or becomes badly degenerated, it loses its shock-absorbing ability, which can narrow the space between vertebrae. By receiving care from spine specialists within multiple fields, the diagnosis and treatment process is less likely to become biased or limited. Multidisciplinary care involves a team of specialists that pools together its expertise for the greatest benefit of the patient. Surgery is reserved as the last card to be played. As a patient, instead of being limited to one medical specialty, you can benefit from the combined expertise of many physicians.

South Carolina Spine Center believes very much in using appropriate technology where it shows benefit to the patient. Self Regional Healthcare, for example, has invested heavily in the most advanced operating room technology that enables the spine surgeon to navigate and visualize the precise area of the spine that needs treatment. This surgical navigation system integrates 3-D images from a CT scanner in the operating room with real time guidance of instrumentation that functions much like a GPS system, but is incredibly more accurate. This surgical navigation technology provides the surgeon with the most advanced visualization of key landmarks during surgery. Fewer than a dozen hospitals in the United States provide this operating room technology to their spine surgeons.

We strongly emphasize a daily back or neck exercise program to prevent a future recurrence of back strain. Once you have a back pain attack, you’re four times more likely to have a recurrence. Being a previous victim of back pain requires you to work extra hard to prevent future back attacks. A home exercise program is typically customized for an individual’s specific back problem. These exercises can be done on the living room rug while watching TV. Other stretching exercises can be done throughout the day to increase flexibility. The way to prevent future back or neck pain is by using customized exercises that make the back stronger, more flexible and resistant to injury. In addition to improving blood flow to discs, joints, and muscles, exercise makes muscles more flexible, stronger and resistant to future strain. Visit here to receive a free Home Remedy Book.
