Each year more than 15 million Americans suffer from Low Back Pain. Although most conditions are treated with conservative therapy such as medication or physical therapy, a percentage of patients will be candidates for fusion surgery. Recent advances in minimally invasive techniques have revolutionized back surgery!

AxiaLIF®, a procedure that spares all of the muscles, nerves, and soft tissue while stablizing the spine, is the least invasive surgical option for lumbar fusion surgery. By sparing this vital tissue, patients have shorter hospital stays and return to their daily activities faster.
