We've noticed in our clinic that quite a number of patients have had prior history of back surgeries, yet pain persists, and in some cases - worsened - due to formation of scar tissues. This is commonly known as Failed Back Surgery Syndrome (FBSS), between 5 to 40% of patients undergoing back surgeries experience this complication.
Sometimes surgery isn't the solution to everything. We strongly advice patients to consider the option to have surgery carefully - have a long chat with doctors, get a second opinion etc.
Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) is an effective modality in pain management. It is already widely adapted in Europe and North America in treatment and management of chronic / acute pain and many degenerative conditions. This service is now available in Sydney, in our Bondi Junction clinic. More information regarding LLLT is available in our main website, alternatively phone or email us with any questions.
