All About Kyphoplasty at APSI Wellness

Kyphoplasty is a minimally invasive spine procedure designed to relieve pain, restore vertebral height, and stabilize fractures caused by osteoporosis, trauma, or spinal tumors. At APSI Wellness, kyphoplasty is performed by experienced pain management specialists with a focus on safety, precision, and rapid pain relief—helping patients return to daily life with less discomfort and greater confidence.

What Is Kyphoplasty?

Kyphoplasty treats vertebral compression fractures (VCFs)—small cracks in the spinal bones that can cause severe back pain, loss of height, and spinal curvature. During the procedure, a small balloon is gently inserted into the fractured vertebra to create space. Medical-grade bone cement is then injected to stabilize the bone and restore alignment.

Conditions Kyphoplasty Can Treat

  • Osteoporotic compression fractures

  • Spinal fractures from trauma or injury

  • Fractures related to spinal tumors or cancer

  • Painful spinal deformities causing reduced mobility

Benefits of Kyphoplasty

  • Minimally invasive with small incisions

  • Outpatient procedure with same-day discharge

  • Helps restore vertebral height and spinal alignment

  • Improves posture, mobility, and overall quality of life

What to Expect During the Procedure

  • Performed under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia

  • Small incision guided by advanced imaging
