We aim to address occipital neuralgia via minimally invasive approaches that preserved integrity of structures such as muscles and nerves. We make a parallel between occipital neuralgia decompression surgery and carpal tunnel decompression surgery. We can improve occipital neuralgia via minimally invasive surgery that allows the patient to immediately recover from surgery.

Our approach offers an effective solution for the increasing number of patients suffering from occipital neuralgia. We hope to be able to diagnose and treat occipital neuralgia in the near future as we do for carpal tunnel syndrome.
