What is QI Back & Spine Clinic?

QI Back & Spine Clinic is a team of medical professionals who are dedicated to diagnosing & treating severe, chronic or acute back and spine conditions by non-surgical methods. Diagnosing the root cause of back and spine conditions is always the first step in medicine. We use a multi-disciplinary approach to accurately diagnose the cause of back pain because the more accurate the diagnosis, the more precise the treatment. We believe that it is essential to reverse the underlying cause of back pain and not just temporarily suppress the symptoms.

How do you diagnose the root cause of back pain?

An accurate diagnosis is critical as 85% of back pain cases are termed ‘non-specific’. Your back pain can be due to a neurological, systemic, structural or mechanical dysfunction. We are amongst the first to use a diagnostic approach that covers all these aspects. We use non-invasive technology that isolates the spinal structure. The controlled guided movements test and measure the strength and mobility of the spine. We can therefore identify the root cause of your back pain and prescribe further course of treatment.

What technology do you use? Is it non-invasive?

The machines we use are non-invasive biofeedback devices. They hold and support your body in fixed positions and then measure your functional ability during movements. They allow us to get a clear understanding of your spinal muscle tissue.

Who are QI spine specialists?

Our spine specialists are doctors with a specialisation in spinal disorders post a 4-year clinical degree in physical medicine or physiotherapy. They are specialists in the prescription of mechanical medical movements. Their expertise is dedicated to the reversal of spinal disorders and to promote mobility & function.

Back Pain Is a Common Problem

Dr. Garima Anandani, 5 years ago

Doctors and Spine specialists most commonly classify back pain as either Acute or Chronic.

Acute (short term): Is an episode of back pain that does not last more than 4 weeks. Most acute pains are caused by a sudden injury to the muscles or ligaments supporting the back. Many episodes of acute pain will subside automatically given adequate rest and precautions.

Chronic (long term): Is a pain that extends beyond the expected period of healing. Clinically it is defined as pain that lasts for 3 months or more. It often progresses gradually and the cause is difficult to determine in the vast majority of cases. Chronic pain has the potential to cause serious disability in leading a normal productive life and an accurate diagnosis is critical to ensuring an effective treatment that gets the patient back to a functional. Pain-free state.

The American College of Physicians recommends that a Spine specialist involved in the diagnosis and treatment of pain should attempt to categories chronic back pain into 3 categories:

Non-specific low back pain: For which the spine specialist doctors cannot identify the exact underlying cause. At least 85% of all pain cases are clinically classified as ‘non-specific in nature. MRI’s and other imaging tests fail to help spine specialists to arrive at a precise diagnosis, and therefore a vast majority of pain sufferers continue to suffer without an effective treatment based on a precise diagnosis.

Low back pain associated with a radiculopathy or spinal stenosis: Radiculopathy and spinal stenosis are specific causes of pain that may be identified through a complete physical evaluation of the spine and imaging tests like MRI. However, these two specific causes arc estimated to cause not more than 8%-I 5% of all pain cases. Standard treatment for such cases can range from physical therapy and exercise to medication.

Other forms of specific low back pain: These comprise causes like tumours, Cancers, and disorders of certain organs not associated with the spine. These cases are estimated to comprise no more than 2% of all pain cases.

Thus, not more than 8 out of 10 sufferers of chronic pain worldwide clinicians are unable to determine a specific cause. The challenge facing the medical community is to evolve a new diagnostic tool or protocol which precisely determines the root cause of the so-called ‘non – specific’ cases. This will pave the way for specific and effective treatment for the overwhelming majority of people struck by debilitating long-term pain.
