Herniated Disc
A herniated disc occurs when the soft cushion between the vertebrae slips out of place, causing pain, numbness, or tingling that can radiate through the back, arms, or legs. At Ascend Chiropractic and Wellness, we focus on gentle, non-invasive treatments to relieve discomfort, restore mobility, and support natural healing.
Chiropractic Care for Herniated Disc
A herniated disc can be one of the most painful and limiting conditions to experience. Spinal discs can become herniated due to injury, degeneration, or even everyday wear and tear. When this happens, the inner material of the disc pushes through its outer layer, placing pressure on nearby nerves. This can cause radiating pain, numbness, tingling, and weakness that extend through the back, neck, or limbs.
At Ascend Chiropractic and Wellness, we specialize in gentle, non-invasive treatments designed to relieve pain, restore mobility, and support natural healing — helping you return to a pain-free, active lifestyle.
Herniated Disc: Diagnosis, Symptoms, and Treatment
Diagnosing a herniated disc typically involves a combination of physical exams and medical history. Your provider may assess reflexes, muscle strength, walking ability, and sensitivity to touch. In some cases, imaging or nerve tests are used for confirmation.
Common Symptoms Include:
-
Radiating leg or arm pain
-
Numbness or tingling sensations
-
Muscle weakness or reduced mobility
Non-Invasive Chiropractic Treatments for Herniated Disc
Chiropractic care offers safe and effective alternatives to surgery or medication. Instead of masking pain with drugs or opting for invasive procedures, our approach focuses on restoring alignment, improving circulation, and promoting the body’s natural healing process.
Chiropractic Adjustments
Through precise spinal adjustments, your chiropractor gently relieves pressure on the affected disc and surrounding nerves. This helps reduce pain, restore proper movement, and support optimal spinal alignment — creating a better environment for healing.
Spinal Decompression Therapy
Spinal decompression is a simple, non-invasive technique that uses gentle traction to relieve pressure between the vertebrae. This not only eases discomfort but also allows oxygen and essential nutrients to flow more freely to the discs, accelerating recovery and reducing inflammation.
