Our spine, made up of bones, discs, and soft muscle tissues, plays an important role in supporting the upper body. More specifically, it is responsible for protecting and stabilising your back. These small discs and soft muscles in your spine can get damaged, injured, or herniated due to prolonged degeneration. You can also suffer from congenital anomalies of the spine that may hinder your everyday activities. While you can manage painful symptoms using pain-relieving medications, they have certain side effects. Surgical treatment may also be recommended, but in most cases, problems with the spine can be treated successfully with advanced, conservative methods at QI Spine Clinic. To achieve this feat, we use our unique, evidence-based, four-step spine care approach.
The first step of our four-step spine care approach is the Spine Cell Repair Treatment. This treatment uses innovative Frequency-Specific Microcurrents (FSM) technology, which has been proven to be quite effective in cell repair. Our spine doctors deliver low-frequency microcurrents to the affected region of the spine through a patented device to stimulate the tissues and induce cellular regeneration. This helps alleviate pain and inflammation without medications or injections.
In our second step, we use our patented device to diagnose your spine issue through the Digital Spine Analysis (DSA) technology. It is a functional diagnostic test that allows our spine doctors to identify the weak muscles in your spine. Based on the assessment done, our spine doctors can curate a customised treatment plan that takes care of your individual needs and requirements.
In the third step, our spine doctors provide an advanced form of physical therapy – Isolation Treatment, which enhances the weight-bearing capacity of your spine by using an Isolation Device. During this treatment, we ensure that you can bear the weight and pressure put on your back without any risk of injury. This results in targeted treatment and enables faster regeneration of tissues. On the Isolation Device, we can start with a very low dosage of weight and increase in small measures. This treatment given in one session has been found to be as effective as three sessions of conventional physiotherapy.
In the last step of our spine care treatments, our spine specialists focus on recurrence management through our QI Spine Recurrence Management program. Back pain can return even if you have been treated successfully unless a proper prevention plan is followed. Our spine doctors help you take care of your spine health and manage any further painful symptoms on your own. This is achieved by:
- Further enhancing the load-bearing capacity of the spine.
- Increasing the ability of your body to sustain normal activity.
- Realising additional higher functional goals as planned previously.
