  • Spinal Stenosis: Narrowing of the spinal canal that can compress nerves, causing pain, numbness, and weakness. Treatment options include conservative care and surgical decompression.
  • Herniated Discs: Occurs when a spinal disc ruptures and presses on nearby nerves, leading to pain, tingling, or weakness. Treatment may include physical therapy, injections, or minimally invasive surgery such as microdiscectomy.
  • Degenerative Disc Disease: Age-related wear and tear on spinal discs can lead to chronic pain and stiffness. Treatment includes lifestyle modifications, physical therapy, and advanced procedures like artificial disc replacement.
  • Sacroiliac (SI) Joint Dysfunction: Pain and instability in the joint connecting the spine to the pelvis. This condition may be treated with physical therapy, injections, or minimally invasive SI joint fusion surgery.
  • Spine Trauma: Injuries to the spine, such as fractures or dislocations, require prompt diagnosis and treatment to prevent long-term complications. Advanced imaging and surgical stabilization may be necessary.
  • Spinal Tumors: Abnormal growths in or around the spine that can cause pain, neurological symptoms, and instability. Dr. Oberlander provides a multidisciplinary approach to manage these complex cases.

Treatment Options
 
  • Conservative Care: Physical therapy, pain management, and lifestyle changes to manage symptoms and improve mobility.
