Comprehensive Spine Care at Apollo: How Our Multi-Specialty Team Ensures Better Outcomes

Spine care requires a comprehensive approach. At the Apollo Spine Clinic, we offer holistic care, which includes treatment not only for the symptoms of spinal issues but also addresses the disease’s underlying cause and psychological aspects. Our team of multi-specialties works together to ensure that our patients receive the most effective and personalised treatment for the condition affecting their spine. This collective approach, therefore, brings tremendous improvement in patient outcomes, ensures faster recoveries, and promotes improved quality of life.

The Importance of Comprehensive Spine Care

Spinal problems are often complex and multifaceted. A single injury may affect many facets of the patient’s life, such as physical mobility and mental well-being. At Apollo Spine Clinic, we understand the importance of the spine in different body functions. Our multi-speciality team ensures each patient receives a treatment plan tailored to their needs.

The spine is an essential part of the human body and plays an important role in facilitating motion and carrying the weight of the upper part of the body. Any problem or disorder of the spine can cause discomfort, loss of mobility, and sometimes even disability if not treated properly. Traditional ways of dealing with spinal issues often tend to treat just pain associated with it or just the physical malfunction without considering the patient’s overall well-being. The multidisciplinary approach at Apollo Spine Clinic ensures that we treat the patient as a whole, not just their symptoms, but also the underlying causes and related factors that may have caused spinal issues.

Our Multi-Specialty Team in Spine Care

At Apollo Spine Hospital, our multi-speciality team works together to ensure each patient is individually treated for the underlying cause of his or her spine condition while, at the same time, managing symptoms related to it.

• Neurosurgeons: Neurosurgeons at Apollo are experts in identifying and treating spinal disorders. They perform intricate and advanced surgeries that demand great care and knowledge of the nervous system. However, treatment may not always involve surgery. Neurosurgeons at Apollo work with other specialists to decide whether a patient would benefit from nonsurgical interventions before suggesting surgery.
• Pain Management Specialists: Pain Management Specialists at Apollo focus on determining the cause of pain and offering treatment according to their needs. Their role in pain management is very important not only post-surgery but also in providing nonsurgical interventions that can help avoid or minimise the need for surgery. The specialists practise various techniques, including radiofrequency ablation, epidural steroid injections, nerve blocks, and spinal cord stimulation.
• Psychologists: Spinal disorders tend to affect a patient’s psychosocial and emotional state. We at Apollo Spine Clinic also consider psychologists to be an important part of the multidisciplinary team for recovery. Our psychologists work with the patient to help them cope emotionally. They use the most suited therapeutic techniques available, including counselling, CBT, and others, to help the patient cope with the stress and reduce anxiety by developing resilience.
• Neuro-physiotherapists: Rehabilitation also forms an integral part of the spine care chain. Neuro-physiotherapists at Apollo Spine Clinic play a major role in restoring functions and motility to these patients. Neuro-physiotherapists employ different modalities, including manual therapy, strength training, and functional exercises, in restoring movement and posture and alleviating pain. Treatment does not focus on symptoms alone but on bringing the patient back to daily activities with confidence and ease.
