Disc Issues

If you're suffering from disc issues in your back, you know how debilitating the pain can be. The good news is you don't have to suffer in silence when a chiropractor on our team can help you find a holistic solution. At Optimal Health Chiropractic and Massage Clinic in Edmonds, WA, we can help treat disc injuries and back pain issues so you can get back to living your active life.

Understanding Back Disc Problems

The discs in your spine act as shock absorbers between the vertebrae and allow flexibility. When injury or degeneration occurs, discs can bulge, rupture or herniate, causing:

• Sciatica
• Muscle spasms
• Stiffness and decreased mobility
• Numbness or tingling
• Weakness or pain in arms and legs

Discs most susceptible to injury are in the lumbar and cervical spine. Accidents, poor posture, aging, and repeated stresses can all contribute to disc problems.

How Chiropractic Eases Disc and Back Pain

Chiropractic care is a proven way to help treat damaged discs and alleviate back pain. We may use techniques like:

• Spinal manipulation
• Corrective exercises
• Soft tissue mobilization
• Lifestyle advice

We may also recommend additional therapies, such as massage therapy.

Other Potential Benefits

• Here are some other potential benefits of chiropractic care:
• Improved range of motion and flexibility
• Increased blood flow to promote healing
• Reduced inflammation and muscle spasms
• Less reliance on medication
• Better sleep and increased energy

Our goal is to help you manage your disc issues and back pain, so you can participate in your regular activities comfortably.

Customized Treatment Plans

No two patients or disc injuries may be exactly alike. That’s why our Edmonds chiropractic team takes the time to evaluate your full health history and your specific condition. We’ll check your posture and spine health, evaluate your gait, and may order imaging tests if needed.

Based on our assessment, we will develop a treatment plan that seeks to address the underlying cause of your pain. With ongoing adjustments and complementary therapies, we may be able to help you manage disc issues and improve function over time.
