Your medical information stays confidential.

You should never face this alone.

Deciding on surgery at the junction of the skull and spine requires precision and specialized neuro-care. Shifara Health exists so that decision, and everything around it, is never yours to carry alone.

What is Spinal Foramen Magnum Decompression?

Spinal Foramen Magnum Decompression is a micro-neurosurgical procedure used to relieve pressure at the base of the skull, most commonly caused by Chiari malformation or craniovertebral junction anomalies. Surgery involves removing a small section of bone at the back of the skull (and upper vertebra) to enlarge the opening and give space to the brainstem and spinal cord.

It aims to relieve severe headache, balance loss, and nerve issues by restoring natural fluid circulation between the brain and spine.

Why opt for Foramen Magnum Decompression in India?

Skull-base and spine surgical teams in India perform craniovertebral junction surgeries regularly. Equipped with neuronavigation and high-definition microscopes, Indian centers provide comprehensive neuro-care at costs significantly lower than in Western nations.
