Herniated Disc

Disc herniation is a condition that can be caused by a variety of things, including repetitive motions, improper lifting, and sudden impact. The discs in your spine act as cushions between the vertebrae, and when one of them becomes damaged or slips out of place, it can put pressure on the spinal cord or nerves, causing pain.

Instead of heading to your medical doctor for injections, surgery, or pain pills, there’s another solution you can try – gentle, focused, and specific care with us that’s completely natural and proven to bring results!

What Is A Herniated Disc?

A herniated disc is a condition that affects the spine. The discs are the cushions between the vertebrae, and they can become damaged and rupture.

This can lead to pain, numbness, postural problems, compression and weakness in the affected area, which is typically one sided. Herniated discs are most commonly seen in the lower back, but they can also occur in the neck and other parts of the spine.

Patients sometimes describe feelings of bugs crawling on their skin, cramps, or complete leg-to-toe numbness.

Focused, Gentle Care

We begin by identifying what’s caused your herniated disc through imaging, like x-rays or MRIs. From there, we’ll be able to see exactly where the herniation has occurred, and carry out some orthopedic testing.

After determining the cause, we’ll move on to discussing a curated care plan, which may consist of a number of modalities, including:

• Electrical muscle stimulation
• Ice therapy
• Spinal traction therapy
• Adjustments

After undergoing care, we’ll always evaluate to see what’s working for you. Eventually, we’ll take new images to see how your therapy is working. Patients often love the chance to physically see the “before and after” images of their spine, which often show the herniation resolved.
