Chronic Back Pain Sufferers are Invited to Attend a Free Seminar at Spine Center
The spine center is announcing their free seminar on July 12. Individuals suffering from chronic back pain will be educated on the minimally invasive procedure.
- (1888PressRelease) July 01, 2011 - DALLAS, Texas - North American Spine, innovators of the revolutionary AccuraScope Procedure to treat debilitating chronic back pain, announced today that it will host a free seminar at 11 a.m. on Tuesday, July 12, 2011 at its Dallas headquarters located at 10740 N. Central Expressway, Suite 275. Renowned spine and pain management specialist, Robert Bulger, M.D., will host the one-hour information session open to individuals who suffer from chronic back pain.
Unlike traditional open back surgery and other forms of spinal surgery that can be traumatic and involve a lengthy and painful recovery time, the 30-minute AccuraScope Procedure is a minimally invasive outpatient treatment in which the physician gently enters the patient's spinal canal through a three-millimeter incision into the sacral hiatus-a natural opening at the base of the spine. Once inside the spinal canal, the high-definition AccuraScope reveals inflamed or damaged tissue that cause pain and allows the physician to treat them with a laser-all in one procedure.
"The great thing about the AccuraScope is it's a nonsurgical way to get a surgical result," Bulger says. "There isn't the risk for bleeding and infections."
To date, North American Spine has performed more than 5,000 AccuraScope procedures. The overwhelming majority of patients report they are completely pain free immediately following the procedure. Patients are typically released one hour after treatment, walk the same day and return to regular activity the next day.
Attendees will have the opportunity to ask Dr. Bulger any questions they may have regarding their specific back pain, and are encouraged to bring their MRIs to the seminar to review with Dr. Bulger.
