Failed Back Surgery

There are essentially two kinds of surgery that are performed for spinal problems.   Microsurgery is performed through a probe that is relatively narrow and relatively noninvasive.  Conventional surgery is sadly invasive and risky, albeit sometimes necessary. 

The sequellae, or subsequent conditions that ensue relate to the relative weakening of the spine and supportive structures that are part of the functional unit that the vertebrae are but a part of.  Sometimes alignment is affected as well.  Areas above and below the surgery often try to accomodate and compensate eventually becoming a problem themselves. After a surgery a gentle, non invasive DNFT Chiropractic adjustment often mitigates post surgical issues.
