New Spinal Fusion Guide Released: The Resource I Wish I Had

If you're facing spinal fusion surgery — or recovering from one — you’ve probably realized how confusing and overwhelming the process can be.
I’ve been there. Twice.
And that’s why I created the Spinal Fusion Guide — a free, in-depth resource that covers everything I wish I knew before, during, and after surgery.
Why I Made This Spinal Fusion Guide
When I went through my first spinal fusion, I was in pain, and unprepared. Like most patients, I assumed the surgeon and care team would guide me every step of the way.
Instead, I was left with more questions than answers.
Questions I didn’t even know to ask. Information I didn’t know I needed.
By the time I needed a second fusion due to adjacent segment disease, I realized something
crucial: you have to be the leader of your own recovery.
Surgeons do their part. Physical therapists do theirs. But at the end of the day, you’re the common denominator. You’re the one who lives with the outcome. You’re the one who gains the most if it works… and loses the most if it doesn’t.
What’s Inside the Guide?
What spinal fusion really is — and isn’t
Key questions to ask your surgeon (even the ones no one tells you to ask)
What to expect on surgery day and during recovery
Realistic timelines, pain management tips, and mindset strategies
Nutrition and movement for healing
The truth about adjacent segment disease, bone density, and more
How to take back control of your body and your life after surgery
This isn’t just another generic handout. This is the real, lived experience of someone who went through it — twice — and came out stronger on the other side.
Who This Is For
If you’re considering fusion but want to understand your options
If you’ve already had surgery and feel lost in recovery
If you want to prevent another surgery and take back control of your health
If you’ve been told “you’ll be fine” but aren’t sure what that really means…
This guide is for you.
