ViaDisc

ViaDisc

What it Treats

The ViaDisc® procedure is used to address chronic low back pain caused by degenerative disc disease. It is designed for patients who continue to have pain despite conservative treatments such as physical therapy, medications, and standard injections. ViaDisc® targets the damaged disc itself rather than just masking symptoms.

How the Procedure Is Performed

The procedure is a minimally invasive, non‑surgical treatment performed on an outpatient basis. Under local anesthetic and imaging guidance, a physician inserts a small needle into the center of the affected intervertebral disc. A specialized allograft material derived from human tissue is then injected into the disc to help restore hydration, support natural disc function, and promote tissue repair. Most patients go home the same day and can return to normal activity within a short period.

Dr. Barrett Johnston and his staff have been phenomenal in helping me manage my pain caused by a horrific car crash in May of 2016. Caring, empathetic, professional and kind hearted are the words that come to my mind to describe Dr. Johnston's entire team. I highly recommend him if you need help in managing any kind of pain.
Thanks Dr. Johnston!
