Herniated discs

What is a herniated disc?

Healthy4Life treats a wide range of conditions resulting from degenerative disc disease in Goose Creek.

Also known as slipped discs or ruptured discs, herniations can affect both the cervical (neck) and lumbar (back) regions of the spine. Herniations can arise from multiple causes, including degenerative disease, trauma to the back or neck, sports injuries, improper bending or lifting, auto accidents or physically-demanding jobs.

Here at Healthy4Life we are able to treat this condition with non-invasive therapies that provide optimal results for our patients. A herniated or ruptured disc is the term for when some of the soft, jelly-like center of a spinal disc pushes out through a fissure in the exterior of the disc. Disc herniation doesn’t always cause a problem, but for some people it results in intense pain, numbness or tingling, sciatica, or muscle weakness. This can be effectively treated by Healthy4Life with physical therapy and chiropractic care. In cases of more severe disc herniations, interventional procedures, as well as conservative treatments, can be combined for better outcomes.

The spinal column is made up of vertebrae that are surrounded by discs. A herniated disc occurs when the soft, jelly-like interior of the disc pushes through a fissure in the exterior. This results in referred pain, numbness, tingling, sciatica, and muscle weakness among others. Moreover, these symptoms are not always immediate which can make it difficult to properly diagnose and treat.

Because different cases respond better to different treatment modalities, we offer an array of options for treating Herniated Discs. Treatment plans for this condition commonly include a combination of:

Spinal Adjustments
Regenerative Therapy
Manual Therapy
Chiropractic Orthospinology
Chiropractic

After an initial evaluation, our providers will create a comprehensive treatment plan personalized for every patient.
