What is the Vertiflex procedure?
The Vertiflex procedure is a minimally invasive outpatient treatment that relieves leg and back pain caused by lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS). LSS is a condition characterized by a narrowed spinal canal. It presses or pinches the nerves in your lower back. This pressure can cause pain, numbness, or cramping in your legs, particularly when standing or walking.
The Vertiflex procedure creates more space in your spinal canal, reducing nerve compression without the need for traditional open surgery.
How does Vertiflex work?
During the procedure, your Alliance Spine & Pain surgeon inserts a small spacer between the affected vertebrae. The spacer gently lifts and separates the vertebrae, relieving pressure on your spinal nerves by creating more space in your spinal canal.
The spacer supports your spine while allowing you to maintain your natural motion. Because your doctor places the spacer through a tiny incision, there’s minimal disruption to the surrounding tissues and no need for general anesthesia or lengthy hospital stays.
Is Vertiflex safe?
Yes. The Vertiflex procedure is FDA-approved and considered a safe, effective alternative to more invasive spine surgeries. Since the procedure doesn’t involve cutting or removing bone or tissue, there’s minimal risk of complications.
Thousands of patients have experienced significant relief through Vertiflex, making it a trustworthy option if you seek pain relief from lumbar spinal stenosis.
When will I notice the results of Vertiflex?
You should notice relief from your leg and back pain within days of the Vertiflex procedure. As your healing progresses, you’ll improve over several weeks and experience an increased ability to stand and walk for extended periods without discomfort.
Clinical studies show that Vertiflex provides long-term relief, with many patients experiencing sustained improvements in pain and mobility for several years following the procedure.
If you’ve been diagnosed with lumbar spinal stenosis and are searching for a minimally invasive solution, the Vertiflex procedure offers proven, long-lasting relief without major surgery.
