MILD Procedure in McKinney, TX

You don't have to live with constant back pain. At DFW Sports Medicine, we focus on treatments that support motion and reduce pain, including the MILD procedure. The MILD procedure (minimally invasive lumbar decompression) is a specialized minimally invasive spine surgery designed to treat lumbar spinal stenosis. It helps relieve pressure on the nerves in the lower back by making room in the spinal canal. This procedure is FDA-cleared and performed as an outpatient spinal stenosis procedure, meaning there's no need for a hospital stay. To find out if you're a candidate, schedule a consultation at our McKinney, Frisco, or Lewisville, TX practice today.

At DFW Sports Medicine, patients receive detailed care from start to finish. Dr. Rathna Nuti and her team begin with advanced imaging and a personalized review to confirm that the MILD procedure is right for you. During the procedure, a small incision, about the size of a baby aspirin, is made. Using a specialized tool, the doctor removes a portion of thickened ligament tissue that narrows the spinal canal. This helps restore space around the spinal nerves, improving flow and reducing compression. The treatment supports the body's natural movement by relieving the mechanical pressure that causes discomfort and limits function. Because the procedure is minimally invasive, most people go home the same day. It's a proven method for nonsurgical options for lumbar spinal stenosis pain and a strong alternative to more invasive surgeries.

At DFW Sports Medicine, the MILD procedure is often the right choice for people looking for alternatives to spinal fusion for lumbar stenosis or who want results without open surgery. It helps reduce pain and improve quality of life with low risk and a short recovery time. These are some of the major benefits of minimally invasive lumbar decompression, especially for patients who want real relief without extended downtime:

  • No general anesthesia required
  • No stitches or implants
  • No overnight hospital stay
  • Proven, measurable results
  • Low complication risk
  • Fast return to normal activity
  • FDA-cleared and Medicare-covered
  • Long-term outcomes backed by clinical studies

Dr. Nuti is thorough, professional, and genuinely cares for her patients. The speed with which her office responds to emails and messages is amazing. I sought her help with a medical issue and was so impressed that I switched my care for a wholly unrelated issue from another doctor to her.
