What Is A Herniated Disc?

A herniated disc, also known as a slipped disc or a ruptured disc, is an issue that occurs in the spine. Discs are the cushioning between the vertebrae of your spine, working as shock absorbers and helping your back stay flexible.

A normal disc is made up of a soft inner material, the nucleus, which is surrounded by a tougher outer layer, the annulus. Sometimes, due to wear and tear or an injury, the outer layer of the disc can develop a small tear or weak spot. If this happens, the softer inner material inside the disc can push out through the tear or weak spot, pressing on nearby nerves in your spine. This can cause pain, tingling, or numbness in your back, neck, or even in other parts of your body, depending on which disc is affected.

How Can A Chiropractor Help With A Herniated Disc?

Chiropractic care can certainly be considered as a complementary therapy for a herniated disc. Our chiropractic care plans for herniated disc treatment Brisbane may be used to provide relief from certain symptoms and improve overall spinal health. We utilised a specific chiropractic technique and table, called flexion / distraction therapy to help the disc to heal. The flexion distraction table creates a vacuum effect which helps the herniated disc material to be reabsorbed. This technique is used alongside chiropractic adjustments, soft tissue release and core rehab to help patients suffering from disc complaints.

Pain Management

At Dynamic Chiropractic, we use manual adjustments and other techniques to help alleviate pain associated with a herniated disc. These adjustments may reduce pressure on the affected nerves, providing some much-needed relief.

Improved Mobility

Chiropractic adjustments and therapeutic exercises may help improve the range of motion in the spine, reducing stiffness and promoting better mobility.

Muscle Strengthening

As part of your personal treatment plan, we may recommend specific exercises and stretches to strengthen the muscles that support the spine. Stronger muscles can provide better support to the injured area.
