Nonsurgical treatment options

Most patients are treated without surgery. Here is an overview of the nonsurgical options we offer and where to learn more.

Exercise, yoga, stretching, core strengthening, nutrition, sleep, mindfulness and posture changes may help prevent and ease chronic pain. Explore the guides.

Physical therapy

A guided exercise and education program is a first step for many back, neck and joint problems. What to expect in physical therapy.

Medicines

Your physician may recommend anti-inflammatory medicines, nerve pain medicines or other options when they are safe for you, usually alongside activity and therapy rather than instead of it. For inflammatory arthritis, our rheumatology team manages disease-modifying medicines.

Regenerative medicine and orthobiologics

These therapies are still being studied. They are usually not covered by insurance and are not FDA-approved to treat specific conditions. We give a written estimate before treatment.
