MILD Procedure A Breakthrough in Spinal Stenosis Treatment

At the Advanced Relief Institute, we recognize the significant impact that lumbar spinal stenosis can have on your ability to perform daily activities and maintain your quality of life. The MILD procedure (minimally invasive lumbar decompression) is an innovative, minimally invasive technique that effectively treats spinal stenosis by removing excess ligament tissue, which is responsible for narrowing the spinal canal. This procedure alleviates nerve compression, relieves pain, and improves mobility without extensive surgery. If you're experiencing pain and limited mobility due to spinal stenosis, the MILD procedure could be the ideal solution for you. Schedule a consultation with our expert team to learn more.

Understanding Lumbar Spinal Stenosis

Lumbar spinal stenosis occurs when the spinal canal narrows, leading to compression of the nerves that travel through the lower back into the legs. This condition often results in symptoms such as chronic lower back pain, leg pain, numbness, and weakness, which can severely limit your ability to walk or stand for extended periods. Left untreated, spinal stenosis can progressively worsen, leading to a significant decrease in your overall quality of life. The MILD procedure addresses the root cause of spinal stenosis by increasing the space within the spinal canal, reducing nerve compression, and providing lasting relief.

What Is the MILD Procedure?

The MILD procedure is a minimally invasive technique that targets the excess ligament tissue causing the narrowing of the spinal canal. During the procedure, a small incision is made in the lower back, and specialized instruments are used to remove the thickened ligament tissue, creating more space in the spinal canal and relieving pressure on the nerves. The MILD procedure is performed under fluoroscopic guidance to ensure precise targeting of the affected area, minimizing the risk of complications and promoting a quicker recovery.

How the MILD Procedure Can Benefit You

Significant Pain Relief

The MILD procedure effectively relieves pain by decompressing the spinal canal and reducing pressure on the nerves. Most patients experience a significant reduction in pain, allowing them to walk and stand with greater ease and comfort.

Minimally Invasive Approach

As a minimally invasive procedure, MILD involves a small incision, leading to less postoperative pain, a shorter recovery time, and a lower risk of complications compared to traditional open surgery. This approach allows you to return to your daily activities more quickly.

Preservation of Spinal Stability

Unlike more invasive surgeries, the MILD procedure preserves the spine's structural integrity, maintaining its natural stability while effectively treating spinal stenosis. This helps prevent future complications and supports long-term spinal health.

Improved Mobility and Function

By relieving nerve compression and expanding the spinal canal, the MILD procedure enhances your mobility and overall spinal function. Patients who undergo this procedure often report a marked improvement in their ability to walk, stand, and engage in activities they enjoy.
