The Discseel® Procedure
Naturally derived, non-surgical, and minimally invasive.
The Discseel®Procedure is a naturally derived, non-surgical, and minimally invasive procedure designed to treat chronic back and neck pain caused by damaged or torn spinal discs, also known as annular tears.
This is an effective alternative to spinal fusion that has provided many patients with relief from back and neck pain. Using fibrin, a natural biologic, this procedure successfully seals and heals annular tears.
Through its use in this procedure, fibrin has shown to be an effective solution for treating tissue that cannot be sutured together.
Pain Conditions Helped by The Discseel® Procedure
The Discseel® Procedure is a non-surgical option for treating back and neck pain caused by damaged spinal discs. The most common conditions treated by this procedure include:
- Back pain (degenerative disc disease, annular tears, herniated discs, sciatica)
- Head and neck pain
- Nerve pain
How the Discseel® Procedure is Performed
The entire Discseel® Procedure process has been refined into just four steps that are completed in just one visit. It’s the simplest and most effective option for treating back and neck pain caused by annular tears.
1. Consultation
During your consultation, you and anyone with you may speak directly with Dr. Workman to get answers to questions regarding the procedure. He will answer all your questions to ensure that you feel confident and ready for a successful return to activities.
2. Annulargram™
The Annulargram™ is a painless test that precisely identifies disc tears and leaks. The Annulargram™ is performed during your Discseel® Procedure.
3. Treatment
While mild sedation relaxes you, and after your Annulargram™ identifies your discs’ tears, all fibrin will be injected into the torn discs to seal all tears.
4. Recovery
Fibrin’s binding ability allows your spinal discs to regain normal strength within 30 minutes, allowing you to return to your hotel or home by that time. You may begin light activity the next day, increasing by 10% increments a day until you’re back to running, golfing, and enjoying life, while fibrin stimulates tissue growth to complete the process of healing your spinal discs over the next 12 months.
