Cooper University Hospital offers comprehensive, multi-disciplinary care for back, neck, and other spine problems, from simple back strain to complex traumatic injuries.

A team approach to spine injury and disease ensures all aspects of your care are properly addressed

A team of orthopaedic surgeons, neurosurgeons, anesthesiologists, physiatrists, a neuroradiologist, physical therapists, and support staff works together to provide seamless diagnostic, medical, and surgical services.

Non-surgical solutions to care

Non-surgical solutions include pain management through medications, therapeutic injections, pain modulation techniques, and acupuncture; as well as physical therapy and rehabilitation. Medications can be part of a comprehensive pain management program. Physical therapy can help many types of acute and chronic neck and back pain. Proper posture and body mechanics training, therapeutic exercise, and other techniques can increase the spine’s strength or flexibility, enabling patients to manage pain and prevent future episodes of pain.

Surgical options

When surgery is necessary, Cooper offers many approaches, including minimally invasive procedures, to foster quicker recovery and more rapid return to function with less pain.
