Overview
Comprehensive Neck & Spine Care
Southeast Orthopedic Specialists provides comprehensive neck and spine care for individuals experiencing neck pain, back pain, nerve symptoms, or mobility limitations. Our team of highly skilled, nationally recognized spine specialists offers a full range of treatment options — from non-operative care and image-guided injections to minimally invasive and complex spine surgery. We work closely with each patient to determine the most effective approach for their unique needs, using advanced technology and proven techniques to deliver exceptional outcomes, reduce pain, and restore function.
Common Conditions of the Neck & Spine
The neck and spine form the body’s central support system, enabling movement, flexibility, balance, and protection of the spinal cord and nerves. Because they carry the weight of the head and torso and absorb constant motion and stress, they are especially vulnerable to a wide range of injuries and conditions — from disc herniations and spinal stenosis to nerve compression, arthritis, and muscular strain. Understanding the source of your neck or back issue is an important first step toward effective treatment. The diagrams below outline common spine conditions our specialists diagnose and treat, helping guide you toward the care that’s right for you.
Common Neck & Spine Conditions We Treat Include
- Back & neck pain
- Herniated or bulging discs
- Spinal stenosis (narrowing of the spinal canal)
- Degenerative disc disease
- Spondylolisthesis (slipped vertebra)
- Sciatica or radiculopathy

Basic Spine Anatomy
What treatment is right for me?
For many neck and spine conditions, surgery isn’t the first step. Non-operative treatments can help reduce pain, improve mobility, and support healing.
- Spinal adjustments and realignments
- Relief from neck and back pain
- Treatment of headaches and migraines
- Management of joint pain (shoulders, hips, knees)
- Posture correction and spinal health
- Injury recovery (e.g., sports injuries, auto accidents)
For many chronic pain conditions, surgery isn’t always necessary. Pain management specialists offer treatments to reduce discomfort, improve function, and enhance quality of life.
- Medications for pain relief & inflammation
- Nerve blocks & targeted injections
- Spinal cord stimulation or peripheral nerve stimulation
- Radiofrequency ablation for nerve pain
- Physical therapy & guided exercise programs
- Multidisciplinary approaches combining therapies for chronic pain
For many spine conditions, surgery may not be the first step. Orthopedic spine specialists offer non-operative and surgical options to reduce pain, restore function, and support long-term spine health.
- Minimally invasive spine surgery
- Spinal fusion or stabilization procedures
- Disk replacement or discectomy
- Laminectomy or decompression surgery
- Image-guided injections for diagnosis & pain relief
- Post-surgical physical therapy & rehabilitation
Orthopedic spine specialists play a vital role in helping patients reduce pain, restore function, and improve their quality of life.
