About Us (Our History)

Physicians Neck & Back Clinics (PNBC) are medical facilities located in Minneapolis, St. Paul area including Roseville, MN, Woodbury, MN, Coon Rapids, MN, Eden Prairie, MN, Lakeville, MN, and Maple Grove, MN. Our physicians are board certified in various specialties including Orthopedic Surgery, Physiatry, Occupational Medicine, Family Medicine, Internal Medicine, and Emergency Medicine.

We specialize in the treatment of chronic neck and/or back pain that may often be accompanied by arm or leg pain respectively.

Founded in 1990, PNBC has treated over 90,000 patients and is different from most other facilities that treat chronic spinal pain. PNBC concentrates on improving strength and endurance and does not offer passive modalities such as manipulation, ultrasound, TENS, injection therapy, acupuncture, etc. While these passive modalities will often provide temporary relief, PNBC believes, along with many of the world's foremost authorities on spinal disease, that lasting improvement comes from improvements in spinal fitness--our program reflects that belief. Furthermore, our published outcome studies support the effectiveness of this "sports medicine" approach and our physicians and physical therapists, who provide the comprehensive and consistent medical care to each patient, guide this approach to obtain the best possible long term improvement of chronic disorders of the spine.
