Understanding Facet Syndrome

What Is Facet Syndrome?

Facet syndrome is pain caused by irritation or arthritis of the facet joints, the small joints that connect the vertebrae and guide the spine as it bends and twists.

When these joints become inflamed or worn, they can cause deep, aching back or neck pain, often worse with movement. Our care focuses on relieving pressure on these joints so they can rest and recover.

Common signs & symptoms

  • Deep, aching pain in the lower back or neck
  • Pain when leaning backward or twisting
  • Stiffness, especially in the morning
  • Pain that eases when leaning forward
  • Tenderness over the spine
  • Pain that can refer into the buttock, thigh, or shoulder

Questions & Answers

Facet Syndrome: Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about non-surgical facet joint pain treatment in Toronto & Vaughan.

What causes facet syndrome?
It is usually caused by wear and tear or arthritis in the facet joints, though it can also follow an injury or develop alongside disc problems. Age, posture, and repetitive strain can all contribute.
Can facet syndrome be treated without surgery?
Yes. Non-surgical care can be very effective. We combine spinal decompression, Class IV laser therapy, and Disc Renewal Plus™ to relieve pressure on the joints and calm inflammation.
How is facet syndrome different from a disc problem?
Facet syndrome comes from the small joints at the back of the spine, while disc pain comes from the cushioning discs between the vertebrae. They can occur together, and a proper assessment tells them apart.
Is the treatment painful?
No. Treatment is comfortable and non-invasive, with no needles and no incisions.
How many sessions will I need?
It depends on your condition and how long you have had it. We map out a recommended plan during your assessment.
How soon will I feel relief?
Responses vary from person to person. Your provider tracks your progress at each visit and adjusts your plan as needed.
