Spine & Pain Management
At Pinehurst Surgical Clinic’s Orthopaedic Surgery, our team of experts specialize in the functional restoration of neck pain, back pain and more through interventional pain relief and physical therapy. Our staff recognizes that no two of our pain management patients are alike, which is why we deal specifically with your pain or injury in the context of your lifestyle and functional abilities.

Spinal Anatomy
The spinal column is one of the most vital parts of the human body, supporting our trunks and making all of our movements possible. Its anatomy is extremely well designed, and serves many functions, including:
- Movement
- Balance
- Upright posture
- Spinal cord protection
- Shock absorption
All of the elements of the spinal column and vertebrae serve the purpose of protecting the spinal cord, which provides communication to the brain and mobility and sensation in the body through the complex interaction of bones, ligaments and muscle structures of the back and the nerves that surround it.
The normal adult spine is balanced over the pelvis, requiring minimal workload on the muscles to maintain an upright posture. Loss of spinal balance can result in strain to the spinal muscles and spinal deformity. When the spine is injured and its function impaired, the consequences may be painful and even disabling.
