Was Lisa Salman Able to Find Back Pain Relief at Laser Spine Institute?

Lisa Salman, an office manager from Ellijay, Georgia, enjoyed an active lifestyle including busy work weeks and chores at home, as well as gardening, biking, kayaking, hiking, and spending time with her young grandson. However, chronic back pain from a plethora of spinal conditions – including arthritis, bone spurs, degenerative disc disease, foraminal stenosis, and sciatica – made it increasingly difficult for Lisa to lead a normal, active life.

Lisa experienced burning and stabbing pains in her lower back, as well as numbness and tingling down both of her legs and into the arches of her feet. Her symptoms were so severe that they kept Lisa up at night, and prevented her from doing the activities she loved – holding her grandson, bending down to plant in her garden, and more. Even the most routine daily tasks – drying her hair, shopping, vacuuming and sweeping the floor – became nearly impossible. Lisa tried a number of treatment methods in an effort to ease her symptoms, including chiropractic treatments, pain management specialists, epidural injections, massage therapy, and medications. Nothing worked.

Then, Lisa made the fortunate discovery of Laser Spine Institute and our safe, effective endoscopic procedures that are alternatives to traditional open back surgery and fusions. During each visit to our center, Lisa was overjoyed by the attentiveness, informative attitude, and level of care she received from every member of our medical team. Lisa's outpatient surgical procedure at Laser Spine Institute Scottsdale went even more smoothly than she imagined – she enjoyed a nice dinner and leisurely walk with her husband that very same night and was back at work within days.

Lisa is just one of our many patients who truly believes that Laser Spine Institute has allowed her to rediscover her life without back and neck pain.
