What is a Herniated Disc?  

A herniated disc, also referred to as a slipped or ruptured disc, occurs when the soft inner core within the spinal disc starts to crack or tear in the hard outer layer of the disc.  If you have a herniated disc then you may experience leg pain or numbness, pain, or weakness because the herniated material will start to place pressure on the nearby spinal canal and nerves which can impair normal function. 


What Causes a Herniated Disc? 


Herniated discs can happen from several things: 


  • Injury
  • Aging
  • Ongoing wear and tear

Diagnosing a Herniated Disc


Do you believe you have a herniated disc? If so, then your chiropractor will want to make a proper diagnosis. They may have you undergo a magnetic resonance imaging MRI and CT scan to diagnose the disc problems and pinpoint the area pressure on the spinal cord or nerves. 


Flexion Distraction Therapy for Herniated Disc Pain


Flexion-Distraction Therapy is a chiropractic technique that helps alleviate back pain and improve spinal health without surgery. This non-invasive therapy involves the use of a specialized table that moves in a rhythmic motion to gently stretch the spine and decompress the discs. The technique is particularly helpful for patients with herniated discs, sciatica, and other types of lower back pain, as well as for those who prefer a gentler approach to spinal manipulations.
