Ahead of the curve

OrthoArkansas spine specialists diagnose and treat all phases of spinal conditions.

Although back and neck pain often comes from minor problems, such as muscle strain, that can be easily treated, our skilled team of specialists draw from a spectrum of treatment options to provide the best possible outcome for our patients.

Treatments can range from conservative management to minimally invasive spine interventions and surgery.

Expertise with backbone

OrthoArkansas’s comprehensive spine team’s first step is to evaluate all non-surgical options. Customized spine-specialized physical therapy is focused on strengthening and rehabilitating the spine to make it more resistant to injury. Our physical medicine and rehabilitation (PM&R) doctors and spine interventionalist doctors help many patients to recover non-surgically through advanced injection-based treatments.

Most spinal conditions are treatable without surgery, but when necessary, our spine surgeons offer a variety of advanced surgical procedures and are capable of handling the most complex, delicate spinal procedures.
