Causes of herniated disc

  • Aging: Cartilage wears down, increasing the risk of a herniated disc.

  • Physical stress: Strenuous physical activities, such as lifting heavy weights, can cause a herniated disc.

  • Direct injuries to the spine: Whether from car accidents or sports injuries, they can increase the risk of a herniated disc.

     

Symptoms that may indicate a herniated disc

  • Severe lower back pain: This pain may extend to the legs and feet, and gets worse with movement.
  • Muscle weakness or numbness: Especially in the lower extremities, which may affect walking or standing for long periods.

Our physical therapy plans for herniated disc treatment

  • Deep Tissue Massage and Manual Techniques: Deep Tissue Massage is used to relieve muscle tension, and involves indirectly moving the vertebrae to relieve pressure on damaged discs.

  • Stretching and mobilization techniques: To improve spinal flexibility and reduce pain, the therapist uses manual and mobilization stretching techniques.

  • Ultrasound Therapy: This technique helps reduce inflammation and relieve pain, as the waves improve blood circulation and promote healing of damaged tissues.

  • Posture Guidance: We give you tips on how to avoid excessive bending or twisting, in order to reduce pressure on the vertebrae of the spine.
