Definition: Between the vertebrae of your spine are 23 discs which act as spacers and shock absorbers. These discs have soft, gel-like centers surrounded by layers of fibrous tissues. Sometimes, due to an injury or just aging, the material in the middle of a disc pushes to one side or even ruptures. This is called a bulging or herniated disc. Where it occurs: Bulging or herniated discs can appear in the Neck (Cervical Spine), Low Back (Lumbar Spine) and Middle and Upper Back (Thoracic Spine). The following strategies may help you reduce your chance of having a herniated disk: Chiropractic Adjustments. Practice good posture, standing and sitting straight, keeping your back straight when lifting. Maintain a healthy weight. Exercise regularly. Ask your chiropractor about exercises to strengthen your back and stomach. Don't wear high-heeled shoes. If you sit, get out of you r chair every 20 to 25 minutes and walk for several minutes. Treatment: The Brost Clinic specializes in treating bulging and herniated discs using the DRX9000 a spinal decompression unit; this works on decompressing the spine, allowing the discs to regenerate as they collect nutrients, oxygen, and water. To see if The Brost Clinic may be able to help you call 952.473.9637 today for a complimentary consultation. |
