Spinal fusion surgery starting from £13,825*

Spinal fusion surgery treats debilitating pain in your lumbar (lower) spine. It involves fusing together two or more of your vertebrae (the bones that form your spinal cord) using a bone graft.

Spine injection for pain starting from £1,150*

These injections are also known as epidural steroid injections. An epidural injection contains a steroid medicine, usually combined with local anaesthetic. Steroid injections help eliminate inflammation around your spinal cord, reducing pain and stiffness in your back in turn.

Lumbar spinal decompression surgery starting from £10,675*

Lumbar spinal decompression is often performed to treat compressed nerves caused spinal stenosis. During this procedure, the muscles in your back will be raised to expose your spine. Surgical instruments will then be inserted through incisions made in your back to remove any tissue (bone or ligaments) at the back of your spine that could be compressing your nerves.
