Bradenton, Fla.-based Coastal Orthopedics began offering Intracept, a nonsurgical spine treatment for back pain.
Intracept is an outpatient procedure that targets a nerve in the bone of the spine, disabling it to reduce pain, according to a June 22 news release. Richard Bundschu, MD, is trained to perform the 60- to 90-minute procedure at Coastal Orthopedics.
"This new procedure has almost immediate and lasting results for patients who have dealt with long-term pain and will help change many lives for the better," Dr. Bundschu said in the release.
