Non-surgical treatment of spinal conditions represents the first line of care for the vast majority of patients. Our physicians perform a comprehensive clinical and radiological assessment, then develop a personalised treatment plan combining medication, physiotherapy, injections and lifestyle modifications.
Comprehensive diagnostic assessment
Effective care begins with an accurate diagnosis. Our physicians conduct a thorough clinical examination, analyse all imaging (X-rays, MRI, CT scans) and identify mechanical, postural and occupational aggravating factors. This assessment guides the most appropriate treatment for each situation.
Targeted medication
Depending on the diagnosis, a personalised drug treatment is initiated: non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), corticosteroids, analgesics, or medications acting on the neuropathic component of pain. The duration and modalities of treatment are regularly reassessed.
Coordination with therapists
Back medicine is part of a multidisciplinary approach. Our physicians work closely with the physiotherapists, osteopaths and acupuncturists of the centre to offer coordinated care. Therapeutic education sessions help patients better understand their condition and adopt the right daily habits.
