Edison, NJ -- (SBWIRE) -- 10/25/2016 -- The Freeman Spine and Pain Institute offers a treatment alternative to surgery for patients suffering from lumbar spinal stenosis. This solution is called minimally invasive lumbar decompression, better known as MILD.

The team of board-certified and fellowship-trained pain management specialists at the Freeman Spine and Pain Institute do everything they can to help people who are suffering from lumbar spinal stenosis. This condition occurs when the nerves of the lumbar spine are subject to excessive pressure due to the narrowing of the spinal canal. This causes sufferers to have numbness and pain in their lower back and into the legs; it also makes it difficult for them to stand or walk.

People who are dealing with lumbar spinal stenosis can go to the Freeman Spine and Pain Institute for MILD. This minimally-invasive treatment helps relieve the pressure on a patient's spine, reducing pain and increasing mobility as a result. This treatment is carried out by using specialized devices and a local anesthetic that has conscious sedation. The image-guided nature of this procedure allows the doctor performing it to clearly see the treatment area.

MILD helps restore the space in the spinal cord and helps keep the bone and muscle's natural supporting structure intact. The procedure, which takes only an hour to perform, is done by locating and extracting the parts of the tissue and bone that produce the pain.

People who are suffering from lumbar spinal stenosis can learn more about MILD by calling the Freeman Spine and Pain Institute at 1-877-710-9324 or visiting http://www.freemanspineandpain.com/.
