A neck pinched nerve is a condition in which the nerves in the cervical spine are compressed due to disc protrusion, narrowing of the spinal canal, or degenerative changes associated with aging. Symptoms may include neck pain radiating to the shoulders and arms, tingling sensations, numbness, and muscle weakness that interfere with daily activities. To prevent the condition from worsening, appropriate treatment based on the severity of the pinched nerve is required.
Mandaya Royal Puri Hospital provides comprehensive neck pinched nerve treatment through the NERVIOM Neck Pinched Nerve Center, supported by modern medical technology and an experienced team of specialists.

Neck Pinched Nerve Treatment at Mandaya Royal Puri Hospital
The NERVIOM Neck Pinched Nerve Treatment Center at Mandaya Royal Puri Hospital is equipped with advanced facilities and the latest medical technologies to deliver safe, effective, and patient-centered care. Available treatments and technologies include:
1. Radiofrequency (RF) Cervical
Radiofrequency (RF) Cervical is a minimally invasive procedure designed to help relieve pain caused by pinched nerves in the neck area. This procedure uses radiofrequency energy to temporarily deactivate pain-causing nerves without damaging surrounding healthy tissue. Performed without major surgery, RF Cervical offers a relatively short recovery time and is suitable for patients with chronic neck pain who do not yet require open surgical intervention.
2. BESS (Biportal Endoscopic Spine Surgery)
BESS is a modern spinal surgery technique using an endoscopic approach through two small incisions. This method allows clearer and more precise visualization of the compressed nerve area while minimizing muscle tissue damage. Compared to conventional surgery, BESS results in less postoperative pain, lower complication risks, and shorter hospitalization and recovery periods.
3. Monoportal Endoscopic Lumbar Decompression
Monoportal Endoscopic Lumbar Decompression is a spinal endoscopic procedure performed through a single small incision. This procedure aims to relieve nerve pressure caused by spinal canal narrowing or disc protrusion. With the monoportal technique, the procedure becomes more minimally invasive, involves very minimal bleeding, and enables faster recovery, allowing patients to return to daily activities sooner.
4. ACDF (Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion)
ACDF is a surgical procedure performed to treat neck pinched nerves by removing the problematic cervical disc through the front of the neck. After the disc is removed, the cervical vertebrae are fused to maintain spinal stability. This procedure has proven effective in relieving pain, tingling sensations, and weakness caused by severe nerve compression.
5. Disc Replacement
Disc Replacement is a modern surgical method offered as an alternative to fusion procedures. In this procedure, the damaged disc is replaced with an artificial disc to preserve natural neck movement. In addition to relieving pain caused by pinched nerves, Disc Replacement aims to maintain cervical flexibility, allowing patients to move more comfortably after surgery.
6. Posterior Stabilization & Laminectomy
Posterior Stabilization and Laminectomy are surgical procedures performed through the back of the spine to manage complex pinched nerve cases. Laminectomy aims to enlarge the space for the nerves by removing a portion of bone, while posterior stabilization is performed to maintain spinal strength and stability using a specialized support system. These procedures are generally recommended for severe pinched nerve cases, spinal canal narrowing, or unstable spinal conditions.
IONM Neuro Mapping Technology for Safer Neck Pinched Nerve Surgery
To enhance surgical safety, Mandaya Royal Puri Hospital utilizes Intraoperative Neuro Monitoring (IONM) technology. This system monitors nerve activity and responses in real time during neck pinched nerve surgery, ensuring that critical nerve pathways related to movement and sensation are well protected.
The neuro mapping process during neck pinched nerve surgery is conducted directly by neurologists, namely dr. Luh Ari Indrawati, Sp.N, Subsp. Nf.K.Nm.E.G.T. and dr. Nurul Fadli, Sp.N. Both specialists monitor the patient’s nerve condition throughout the procedure, allowing any changes in nerve function to be detected immediately. This approach helps minimize the risk of complications such as limb weakness or other neurological disorders.
