Patients with debilitating sciatica or leg pain from herniated discs or spinal stenosis.

Key Medical Benefits
Why choosing our medical network in Greece guarantees safe, state-of-the-art joint care.
Micro-Incisions
Incisions are under 2 cm, using muscle-dilating tubes instead of cutting muscles.
Nerve Relief
Direct visualization ensures complete decompression of pinched spinal nerves.
Fusion Stability
Advanced titanium cages and bone grafts secure vertebrae for rigid support.
Surgical Recovery Timeline
What to expect during your postoperative stay in Greece and after returning home.
First Steps
Walk with assistance. Focus on proper log-rolling technique when getting in/out of bed.
Incision Healing
Stitch check. Outpatient walks of 15-20 minutes daily. Avoid bending or twisting.
Core Activation
Start specialized core stabilizing exercises under therapist supervision.
Full Healing
Vertebral bone fusion progress check via X-Ray. Gradual return to full physical exercise.
Postoperative Rehabilitation Approach
Spine rehab is centered around core stabilization, neutral spine alignment, and safe body mechanics. We utilize custom posture trainers, low-resistance pool walking, and gentle hamstring stretching.
Our rehabilitation teams operate under the direct orders of your operating surgeon, adjusting load variables based on daily range of motion, incision healing, and pain levels.
