Minimally invasive spine surgery offers many benefits compared to traditional open surgery. Here are some of the benefits:

  • Faster recovery: Due to the smaller incisions and reduced issue trauma, getting minimally invasive spine surgery allows you to have a faster recovery. This can then allow you to get back to work and your daily activities sooner. 
  • Less pain: Minimally invasive surgery produces less pain than open surgery due to the less disruption of muscles and tissues. 
  • Lower risk of infection: With smaller incisions and less tissue exposure, the risk of infection is lower compared to open surgery.
