A landmark study published in the
2014 edition of the International Journal of Rehabilitation Research is set to
change the way the medical fraternity treats severe spine dysfunction. The
study included data on chronic low back pain patients who participated in four
randomized-controlled trials over 23 years and concluded that there was no
benefit of lumbar fusion surgery over conservative treatment.

The case of 55 years old Mr. MR
Prasad is an example that echoes the results of this study: He underwent three
surgeries that failed to cure him. He had severe pain, numbness in both feet,
muscle spasms in his legs and was diagnosed with disc prolapse at L3- L4 &
L4- L5. He was advised to undergo one more spine surgery leaving him distraught
& shattered. He learnt the hard way that surgery and medication can only
suppress or correct the symptom; they do not reverse the fundamental cause of
the problem. He turned to the first Spine Specialist in India: Qi Spine
Clinic. They introduced him to the revolutionary world of advanced spine
treatment for back pain. Qi Spine Clinic’s evidence based medical treatment
protocols have been adopted from some of the leading spine institutes in the
world with great success.
The tests conducted at Qi Spine
revealed what no MRI or XRay had shown him so far: it highlighted the lack of
muscular (mechanical) strength in his spine and allowed for the doctor to
isolate and target treatment very precisely with the use of their unique
technology.
Mr. Prasad says, “After the
treatment sessions my pain, cramps, numbness in hands and feet have
disappeared. I am back to morning brisk walks without any hindrance all because
of the intense study of my case and customized treatment by their spine
specialist”.
Dr Garima Anandani, Chief Spine
Specialist at Qi Spine Clinic firmly states: “It is now beyond doubt that conservative
medical treatment that reverses the root cause of pain must be the first line
of care for those with back pain especially when statistics show that only 1% will ever need
surgery.”
