” Spine restoration ” for back pain generally refers to a range of treatments and therapies aimed at addressing the underlying causes of back pain and restoring proper spinal function, including physical therapy, pain management techniques, and in some cases, surgery.

This is performed when spinal stenosis causes a narrowing of the spinal canal that results in pain, numbness, or weakness.

The surgeon removes the bony walls of the vertebrae and any bone spurs, aiming to open up the spinal column to remove pressure on the nerves but in spine restoration,an epidural steroid injection (ESI) delivers powerful anti-inflammatory medicine directly into the space outside of the sac of fluid around your spinal cord.

This area is called the epidural space. ESI is not the same as epidural anesthesia given just before childbirth or certain types of surgery.
Although rare, risks and complications that apply to lumbar ESI injections include: Low blood pressure, which can make you feel lightheaded. Severe headache caused by spinal fluid leakage. Infection from the epidural procedure, such as an epidural abscess, discitis, osteomyelitis or meningitis.
