Back Pain Treatment Sarasota County, Florida

Are you looking for a non-surgical approach to treating back pain? Dr. Gerald E. Grubbs, M.D. at Sarasota Interventional Radiology, in Sarasota County, Florida, offers a state-of-the-art technique to easing back pain. Plasma Disc Decompression is a minimally invasive, non-surgical, and fast-acting option to drug therapies and steroid injections. It can treat a number of different back problems, including herniated or bulging disc, which may be the cause of your back pain.

One of the latest forms of herniated disc treatment, and back pain treatment is Plasma Disc Decompression. Dr. Grubbs, a board-certified and fellowship trained interventional radiologist, performs this cutting-edge procedure. Herniated or bulging disc is a common back problem that results from a spinal imbalance. The pain is caused by the pressure that this bulging or herniated disc places on nearby spinal nerves. Plasma Disc Decompression helps to relieve back pain by removing the pressure from the disc.

Plasma Disc Decompression works by introducing a micro-engineered alloy transmitter into the effected disc. This advanced technology sends radio wave signals through the transmitter into the jelly-like nucleus of the herniated disc. The radio waves produce a low-temperature ionized gas or plasma that breaks up molecular bonds in the spongy nucleus, removing tissue volume. Once the nucleus tissue is removed, the pressure is relieved from the disc shell which will make the bulge recede so that the disc no longer irritates nearby nerves, thus relieving the back pain. Plasma Disc Decompression is an effective procedure that only takes about 20 to 30 minutes.
