Herniated Disc
A herniated disc, also known as a slipped or ruptured disc, is a condition that occurs when the soft, gel-like center of a spinal disc (the nucleus pulposus) pushes through a tear or weakness in the outer layer of the disc (the annulus fibrosus). This can cause the disc to bulge or rupture, and may put pressure on the nerves in the spine, leading to symptoms such as pain, numbness, and weakness in the arms or legs.
Herniated discs can occur in any part of the spine, but are most common in the lower back (lumbar region) and the neck (cervical region). They can be caused by a variety of factors, such as aging, injury, or excessive strain on the spine.
Herniated Disc Treatment with Chiropractic
A herniated disc can be a source of great pain and discomfort, but it doesn’t have to be. Chiropractic treatment is an effective option for treating herniated discs, and it can provide long-term relief from symptoms. We will first examine the patient to determine the exact location of the herniated disc and then develop a customized treatment plan. This might include spinal manipulation, stretching, electrical stimulation, and massage. The goal of the treatment is to reduce inflammation and relieve pressure on the affected area. We may also suggest lifestyle modifications, such as exercising regularly and eating a healthy diet. With the right treatment plan and regular visits to the chiropractor, patients can experience significant relief from their herniated disc symptoms and lead a more active, pain-free life.
