At CalSpine MD, we offer a full spectrum of advanced, personalized treatments for spine and neck conditions. Our goal is to relieve pain, restore mobility, and help you get back to living with comfort and confidence.
Symptoms like chronic back or neck pain, limited mobility, and muscle weakness can dramatically affect your day-to-day life. Simple tasks like sleeping, driving, or working can become difficult and exhausting. Pain and limited movement often cause you to give up activities you enjoy.
At CalSpine MD, our board-certified spine surgeon, Dr. Ball, brings over 20 years of surgical experience and a strong reputation for clinical excellence. He specializes in minimally invasive spine surgery and uses state-of-the-art technology to perform safer, more precise procedures with better outcomes.
Dr. Ball prioritises finding the least invasive and most effective solution for each condition.
Neck surgery is typically recommended when structural issues in the cervical spine cause chronic pain, stiffness, or nerve-related symptoms.
The cervical spine supports your neck and connects to the shoulders and arms.
Nerve compression in this area can lead to pain, numbness, or weakness in the neck, shoulders, arms, and hands.
Minimally invasive spine surgery uses small incisions and specialized tools to treat conditions like herniated discs, spinal stenosis, and nerve compression. This approach leads to less injury to the muscles and other structures in the spine.
Dr. Ball’s expertise ensures your procedure is performed with precision and minimal disruption to healthy structures, improving both safety and outcomes.
Endoscopic spine surgery is also a minimally invasive technique that offers you a safer, more precise alternative to traditional open spine procedures. It involves using a tiny camera (endoscope) and specialized instruments to access the spine through a small incision.
Considered the next level of minimally invasive spinal surgery, endoscopic techniques lead to less pain, a faster recovery, and minimal scarring.
Regenerative medicine focuses on helping your body heal itself. Instead of just managing pain and symptoms, it focuses on stimulating your body's own repair mechanisms to heal damaged tissue and restore function.
We offer advanced regenerative therapies, such as Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP), to address a wide range of spine problems and injuries.
Interventional pain procedures are targeted, minimally invasive, and image-guided treatments that target spine-related pain at its source. These techniques focus on disrupting pain signals, reducing inflammation, and restoring function.
They are often used as part of a conservative treatment plan or to delay or avoid surgery, providing lasting relief with minimal recovery time.
Dr. Ball leverages the cutting-edge capabilities of robotic spine surgery to offer a level of surgical accuracy and safety that was previously unattainable.
Robotic surgery offers real-time imaging and computerized guidance to perform intricate procedures.
Throughout the surgery, Dr. Ball remains fully in control, while the robotic system enhances his movements and ensures optimal alignment.
Chronic spine pain or limited mobility can affect every part of your life, your work, relationships, energy, and overall well-being. At CalSpine MD, we offer a wide range of treatment options to relieve your symptoms with minimal downtime.
Dr. Ball brings unmatched expertise and uses the least disruptive methods possible to help you feel better and move freely again. His approach ensures faster healing and lasting relief, helping you move freely again.
