💥 Ever feel like your neck is on fire, then your arm goes numb?

That could be a bulging disc pressing on a nerve. Imagine your spinal disc like a jelly doughnut; when the jelly pushes out, it pinches sensitive nerves and triggers symptoms like pain, tingling, and even muscle weakness.

Most people start with physical therapy or meds, but when that's not enough, disc replacement surgery might be the best way forward.

👩‍⚕️ Dr. Tiffany Rogers specializes in motion-preserving treatments that get you back to feeling whole again.

🔍 Artificial Disc Replacement or Spinal Fusion? Both can relieve pain, but only one preserves the natural movement of your spine.

ADR replaces a damaged disc with a synthetic one, keeping your neck mobile and cutting recovery time dramatically. That's why more athletes, and more patients, are choosing it over traditional fusion.

💡If you're dealing with lasting neck pain, Dr. Tiffany Rogers can help you explore whether ADR is the right option for you.

😖Feeling numbness or tingling in your hands.

That could be a pinched nerve in your neck caused by a damaged disc. Artificial disc replacement (ADR) relieves nerve pressure while preserving your spine's natural movement, meaning a faster recovery and less pain.

If your neck pain isn't going away, Dr. Tiffany Rogers can help find the right treatment plan for you.

🤕 Could involuntary movements be harming your neck?

For people with Tourette syndrome or chronic motor tics, the neck can take the brunt of years of forceful, repetitive movements, raising the risk of spinal problems like disc herniation, pinched nerves, or myelopathy.

Even if tics are the main concern, neck pain, tingling, or weakness should never be ignored.

👩‍⚕️Dr. Tiffany Rogers works closely with patients to understand their full medical picture and craft treatment that fits their lives, whether that's physical therapy or motion-preserving procedures like ADR.

Jack Eichel fought for his career and won. When a neck injury threatened to end his time in the NHL, Jack Eichel chose artificial disc replacement (ADR) instead of spinal fusion and got back on the ice in just three months. 🏒

ADR gave him motion, speed, and a shot at a Stanley Cup.

⚙️ You don't have to be a pro athlete to want your life back. If you're dealing with chronic neck pain, ADR could be the motion-preserving solution that keeps you doing what you love.

Let's weigh your options and find the best path forward.

Your head weighs 10-12 pounds, but tilt it forward at 45 degrees, and that load on your neck can jump to over 70 pounds.

This constant strain from looking down at screens is a cause of "tech neck," leading to chronic pain, stiffness, and muscular imbalance. Hours spent on computers and phones each day only add fuel to the fire.

If adjusting your workspace hasn't helped, it might be time to try a different approach.

Call us today to schedule a consultation - your neck will thank you.

Does it hurt when you stand up or walk?
Do you have nerve pain that shoots down your lower back or legs?
Does it feel better when pushing a shopping cart or leaning over the sink?

Lumbar stenosis occurs when arthritis gradually narrows the spinal canal, compressing the nerves housed within it. This usually occurs in the neck or lower back. It can result in numbness, tingling, weakness, and pain.

There are plenty of treatment methods: medication, physical therapy, and cortisone shots. We'll go over available options catered to you.

How can you tell if you have spinal arthritis?

As we age, the wear and tear on our spine may break down the protective cartilage, called osteoarthritis. Initial symptoms may include: chronic back pain, stiffness or reduced flexibility, and swelling or tenderness in the affected area.

More advanced symptoms can be a sharp, stabbing pain or numbness radiating down an arm or leg. In the most severe and untreated cases, physical deformities like a curve in the spine could make it difficult to stand up straight or walk.

If you are getting older, stiffer, and concerned, don't hesitate to give us a call.

Chronic neck pain.
Stiffness.
Headaches.
Numbness in your arms/hands.

Is this what you feel like when you use a tablet or cell phone? Do you find yourself hunched over or slouching most of the time as you're on a device?

You might be developing "tech neck," and unfortunately, it can lead to more serious neck and back problems.

If you've tried to improve your posture but the pain is persisting, there may be deeper issues. We can get to the bottom of your neck pain and create a personalized treatment plan to relieve it.

Do you like jelly donuts?
Did you ever hear the phrase "Bend with your knees, not with your back?"
How are these two questions related, you ask?

If you bend forward while picking something up, you put a strain on the disks between the bones in your spine. Those disks act like jelly donuts, and when lifting something improperly, the 'jelly' of the donut bulges toward your spinal column.

This is lumbar disk herniation, and it can pinch the nerves that run up and down your back. It can cause pain, numbness, or weakness in an arm or leg.

💬If this sounds like you, reach out to schedule a consultation.
