Effective Treatment Options for Disc Injuries
At our pain relief clinic, we provide a range of effective treatments for disc injuries, tailored to your specific needs.
- Chiropractic Adjustments: Our skilled chiropractor, Dr. Jenkins, employs precise, hands-on techniques to gently manipulate the spine, realign vertebrae, and reduce pressure on affected discs. Chiropractic adjustments ease pain, enhance the body’s natural healing abilities, and improve overall spinal health. They are a valuable component of disc injury recovery.
- Spinal Decompression: We offer spinal decompression therapy, a non-invasive technique for addressing disc injuries such as herniations or bulges. This method uses specialized equipment to stretch the spine, creating a vacuum effect that encourages the retraction of herniated disc material. Spinal decompression alleviates pain, supports the healing process, and often leads to relief from radiating pain and improved function.
Identifying Causes and Symptoms of a Disc Related Injury
Disc injuries can arise from various factors, including sudden trauma, strain, the aging process, or lifestyle choices such as smoking and physical inactivity. Individuals engaged in heavy lifting or jobs requiring repetitive twisting movements are more susceptible.
Some of the other causes of a disc injury include:
- Aging: Spinal discs naturally degenerate and become less flexible with age, making them more prone to injury.
- Trauma: Sudden impacts or injuries to the spine, often from accidents or sports-related activities.
- Repetitive Strain: Continuous lifting, bending, or twisting motions that gradually wear down the discs.
- Genetics: Some individuals may have a genetic predisposition to disc problems due to the inherited structure of their spinal discs.
- Obesity: Excess body weight can place added stress on the spine, contributing to disc damage.
Symptoms of a disc injury can include:
- Back pain
- Radiating pain
- Numbness and tingling
- Muscle weakness
- Difficulty moving
