When simple activities such as walking or standing become a burden, you may feel that pain has taken control of your life. The Vertiflex® Procedure may help you take it back. Your leg and back pain might be the result of a condition called lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS), which can develop from normal wear and tear on your spine as you age. LSS is common in adults over the age of 60.

How does the Vertiflex Procedure work?

The Vertiflex® Procedure is a minimally invasive outpatient treatment. It uses a small implant that relieves pressure on the affected nerves. It was designed with patient safety and comfort in mind.The implant works by supporting your existing anatomy and is reversible, leaving all treatment options available in the future. The Vertiflex Procedure may not be right for everyone, as any treatment has associated risks. Ask your doctor if the Vertiflex Procedure is right for you.
