MOTION PRESERVATION

MODERN SOLUTIONS FOR A MOBILE LIFE

TREAT PAIN WITHOUT LOSING MOTION

STAY ACTIVE WITHOUT COMPROMISE.

WHAT IS MOTION
PRESERVATION?

Motion preservation is an advanced approach to spine care that treats pain while maintaining the natural movement of your spine. Instead of limiting mobility through spinal fusion, these techniques aim to restore comfort and function without sacrificing flexibility. This means fewer long-term complications, less strain on surrounding discs, and a more natural recovery. Using minimally invasive methods, motion-preserving procedures allow patients to get back to their lives faster—with better outcomes and fewer restrictions. At Peloza Spine, we believe motion is freedom—and we’re here to protect it.

WHY MOTION MATTERS.

BENEFITS OF MOTION PRESERVATION

Unlike traditional fusion procedures, motion-preserving treatments keep your spine functioning the way it was designed to. By reducing stress on adjacent levels and maintaining flexibility, patients experience less stiffness, improved function, and a lower risk of future surgery. These techniques are ideal for individuals who live active lifestyles or want a faster return to normal life with fewer limitations. It’s not just about pain relief—it’s about maintaining performance and long-term wellness.

“MOVEMENT IS LIFE—AND PRESERVING IT IS THE CORNERSTONE OF MODERN SPINE CARE.”

DR. PELOZA’S MOTION-PRESERVING
PHILOSOPHY

COMMITTED TO MOVEMENT
WITHOUT COMPROMISE

For over 20 years, Dr. John Peloza has championed the belief that spine care should do more than relieve pain—it should preserve your ability to move, live, and thrive. His work has helped evolve minimally invasive and motion-preserving techniques into powerful tools for modern spine care. As a developer of advanced systems like the Serengeti® Retractor and contributor to national clinical trials, Dr. Peloza continues to shape the standard of care for patients seeking relief without rigidity.

A PERSONALIZED APPROACH
TO LONG-TERM WELLNESS

Dr. Peloza doesn’t believe in one-size-fits-all solutions. Every patient is different, and so is every spine. His treatment plans are tailored using precise diagnostics, clinical data, and a deep understanding of motion-preserving methods. Whether you’re an athlete, a parent, or someone simply trying to stay active, his goal is to restore motion and confidence—so you can live pain-free, without limits.

REAL STORIES. REAL RESULTS.

FROM OUR PATIENTS

“I had disabling back pain interfering with my work, my sleep, and my leisure. After consulting several excellent physicians in Dallas who all recommended complicated fusion surgery I traveled to see Dr. Peloza and had surgery without a fusion and its downrange complications. 1 month later I am pain free and once again active in all daily activities. His staff is amazing and they coordinate all aspects of your care and do a great job on Tele care as well. Dr. Peloza cares about his patient's quality of life and their perception of care. There is none better when it comes to bedside manner, patient communication, expertise in the field, and access to care. Don’t want to be another 'Postlaminectomy syndrome on chronic pain meds' - Then this is the place to trust for your care!”
