Numbness or tingling Our four-step program forms the core of SpinaCORE. Your treatment will begin with consultation and evaluation, including a detailed physical exam and advanced imaging to create an accurate diagnosis. Step two is the optimization of medical management, which includes short-term medications and injections if needed. We use fluoroscopic guidance to ensure accurate delivery of medication exactly where it is needed. After these steps we can begin the rehabilitation of the spine, which includes non-surgical spinal decompression (IDD Therapy) followed by strengthening and stabilizing the muscles surrounding your spine. Finally, through education, you can maintain a new, pain-free lifestyle. We focus on Consultation, Optimization, Rehabilitation and Education-SpineCORE. Our office also performs electrodiagnostic testing with EMGs/NCS (Electromyography and Nerve Conduction Studies). We can also help you with epidural injections.
