Disc Injuries

disc injury can be helped by a chiropractor

Common signs: sharp or aching back pain, pain into the leg/arm, numbness/tingling, difficulty bending or sitting.


Our approach (chiropractic-first):

  • Adjustments: gentle, position-of-ease techniques to reduce joint irritation and improve segmental motion.
  • Physiotherapy techniques: directional preference work (positions that reduce symptoms), core bracing, hip hinge training.
  • Targeted exercises: staged progressions from symptom relief to endurance and load-tolerance (walk-breaks, McGill-style basics, etc.).
  • Low-level laser: to calm irritated tissues and support healing.
  • Muscle work: decompressive soft-tissue strategies for paraspinals, hip flexors, glutes, and hamstrings.

What to expect: clear do’s & don’ts, safe movement strategies for work/home, and measurable milestones as symptoms recede and strength returns.


How care is structured

  1. Assess movement, posture, and the true drivers of pain.
  2. Adjust to restore natural joint motion.
  3. Activate with specific exercises that stick.
  4. Assist recovery with laser and focused muscle work.
  5. Advance your plan as you improve—so results last.
