Lumbar Spinal Stenosis mild Treatment

Option offers relief for lower back pain and mobility issues.

Patients of West Michigan Surgery Center now have another option to combat Lumbar Spinal Stenosis (LSS), outside of  epidural steroid injections (ESIs), pain medication, or back surgery.

mild® is a short, outpatient treatment for LSS that restores space in the spinal canal to help improve back and leg pain. Using specialized tools and imaging, mild® addresses a major root cause of LSS by removing thickened ligament through an incision smaller than the size of baby aspirin, leaving no implants behind, only a Band-Aid.

The minimally invasive mild® Procedure has a safety profile similar to epidural steroid injections but with lasting results, and patients typically return to normal activity within 24 hours with no restrictions. mild® is covered nationwide by Medicare and Medicare Advantage. Commercial coverage and other plans vary.
