At the WESTMED Spine Center, we recognize that pain in the back or neck can be caused by many factors. Alternative medicine may work well to ease that pain, either in combination with traditional treatments, or as a stand-alone form of therapy.

Alternative medicine, also known as complementary medicine, refers to a variety of healthcare practices that fall outside the realm of mainstream medicine, including massage, meditation and guided imagery.

We offer several alternative treatments that have helped many people with back pain: chiropractic care, Tai chi, and a specific yoga regimen targeted to the spine.
