Dr. Ferrández presented the Oblique Lumbar Interbody Fusion (OLIF) approach to the lumbar spine, a less invasive alternative for revision surgery in patients with prior lumbar spine procedures. Following the presentation, he conducted a live surgical demonstration, sponsored by SpineNature, showcasing the application of a new generation of cementless pedicle screws designed for osteoporotic patients. The surgery was broadcast via the TVCC to a specialized audience in the Meeting Room at Clínica Vistahermosa, Alicante.
Back Stretching: The Benefits
Stretching, while often viewed with skepticism for back pain, holds therapeutic value when applied correctly. It aids in managing muscle spasms and stiffness by reducing tension, improving blood flow, and restoring muscle length. Additionally, incorporating stretching into rehabilitation and exercise programs can enhance flexibility and prevent injuries, emphasizing its importance in treatment plans.
