TRA Endovascular: Restoring Strength, Reducing Pain

Did you know vertebral compression fractures (VCFs) affect over 800,000 people in the U.S. each year? These fractures can cause severe pain, limit mobility, and impact quality of life — especially for older adults or those with osteoporosis.

At TRA Endovascular, we offer advanced, minimally invasive treatments like Kyphoplasty to help patients regain spinal stability and relieve pain.

💡 About Kyphoplasty:

Performed under sedation with X-ray guidance

A small balloon restores vertebra height, then bone cement stabilizes the fracture

Outpatient procedure, often with pain relief almost immediately

Many patients return to normal activity within days

✅ Covered by most insurance plans, including Medicaid

If you’re experiencing spine pain, loss of height, or discomfort after a minor injury, it could be a vertebral compression fracture. Early treatment makes all the difference.

📞 Contact your provider and let our TRA Endovascular team help you get back to the life you love.

The place to go!”
