Greenwood Village, CO · Low Back
Low Back & Lumbar Spine
Low back pain is the single most common reason patients come to Alpine. The plan starts by identifying which structure is actually generating the pain — disc, nerve root, facet joint, or sacroiliac joint — because each is treated completely differently and imaging alone rarely answers it.
