Neck(Spine)
The neck and back are the most common sources of pain in the body. While most neck and back pain can be alleviated without surgical intervention, some conditions and injuries do require minimally invasive, motion-preserving or open spinal surgery. The neck and spine specialists at Capital Orthopaedics offer a range of nonsurgical and surgical procedures to treat pain in the cervical and lumbar spine.
