How a Chiropractor Can Treat a Herniated Disc
A herniated disc is a condition where the soft cushioning between vertebrae breaks through its casing, resulting in varying levels of pain and discomfort. Symptoms include pain on one side of the body; sharp pain anywhere in your hip, leg, or pelvic region; and even numbness down the back of your leg. Since blood flow to the spine is low, herniated discs are slow to heal on their own, if at all. When you’re in need of herniated disc treatment, come see our Chamblee chiropractors for effective chiropractic treatments.
Chiropractic Care for Herniated Discs
Chiropractic care can be a wonderful, non-surgical treatment option for herniated discs. Our chiropractors will perform a full evaluation and gather lifestyle and health history information to develop a custom treatment plan. Chiropractors have various techniques that can help your spine heal itself.
Pettibon Spinal Rehabilitation
Atlanta Spine and Wellness is delighted to offer Pettibon Spinal Rehabilitation, a treatment method backed by science that is designed to help correct posture and help stabilize posture-related muscles. You can utilize this technology both in our office and at home. We x-ray your spine and perform a physical evaluation to determine the best way to help your herniated disc heal. This is a great way to prevent disc herniations and develop perfect posture.
Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression
We utilize the Kennedy Decompression Table for all our non-surgical spinal decompression needs. If you can avoid surgery to correct a herniated disc, your back will thank you. Non-surgical spinal decompression works by carefully stretching your spine, which creates space for your herniated disc to retreat into position, and for healing nutrients to flow in. Spinal decompression sessions take place three to four times per week over the course of several weeks to ensure full healing and recovery.
