How is suitability for Spinal Decompression determined at Vijaya ANSSI?

Patient’s previous medical records are highly essential to understanding the problem. Clinical examination by our expert Physiatrists are mandatory. They may order further specific investigations such as Digital X’ rays, CT or MRI to arrive at a precise diagnosis. Advanced investigations like Bone density evaluation, nerve conduction studies, contrast MRI etc may be required in some patient cases. You can confidently leave it our judgment to arrive at a precise diagnosis and assessing your suitability for Spinal Decompression.

A spinal X-ray may eliminate other potential causes of pain, but X-rays don't show soft tissue very clearly. It may be necessary for your doctor to order Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) or Computed Tomography (CT) scans to get a more detailed image of the soft and bony tissues around the spine.

How is SpineMED® Performed at VIJAYA - ANSSI Clinic?

For lumbar procedures, the patient is positioned supine on the SpineMED® system. The Patented Pelvic Restraints are adjusted to comfortably secure the patient’s pelvis. The upper torso is secured to the fixed section of the table. The Patented Pelvic Tilt section electronically tilts the pelvis to target specific spinal segments. With precise computer controlled tension, the specific disc segment is gently distracted.

For cervical procedures, the cervical unit is first electronically tilted to the angle required to target specific segments of the cervical spine. The patient is then placed on the table with their head positioned in the cervical cradle unit. The patented Cervical Restraints are designed to comfortably capture the base of the patient’s skull for controlled distraction.

What is the time frame for SpineMED® treatment at VIJAYA - ANSSI Clinic?

SpineMED® treatment is based on sessions; the number of treatment sessions required depends upon the diagnosis and the overall severity of your condition. One treatment session usually runs 30-60 minutes. The procedure is performed with the patient fully clothed and has been described as safe, painless and extremely effective. Each session has a cumulative effect designed to significantly reduce pain and improve function as patients progress through the SpineMED® program.

SpineMED® treatment is purely outpatient form of treatment; the patient is not admitted in the clinic/hospital. The patient has to come to the clinic every day for the treatment sessions. The number of treatment sessions varies from 20 to 22 days depending upon the patient’s condition.

The patient can also take two treatment sessions per day with a gap of eight hours in between sessions, thereby reducing the time frame from 20 to 22 days to 10 to 11 days.

Unique Combination therapy at Vijaya ANSSI:

In most centres across the world usually one modality is routinely used in Low back pain Management. In Vijaya ANSSi, we have developed a 4 step, multi machine therapeutic regimen which synergistically produces vastly superior results in pain and pathology resolution. The steps are:

1. Hydrotherapy - the warmth & massaging effect loosens the inflammed muscles and promotes blood circulation

2. SpineMED® therapy - with precision targeting of the vertebral segments decompression and disc capture are significantly better.

3. Neurostimulation - helps restore neuromuscular conduction and restoration of the wasted muscle mass in the legs.

4. ASA Laser treatment - promotes the healing process in the disc and the paraspinal tissues, besides the pain releiving effect .

Our expert Physiatrists, prescribe core muscle strengthening exercises and posture correction and follow up the patients to prevent recurrence.
