Regain Mobility—Naturally and Safely

A herniated or bulging disc can cause debilitating pain, numbness, and limited mobility. At Ahwatukee Chiropractic, we specialize in non-invasive, drug-free treatments designed to alleviate discomfort and promote healing, helping you return to the activities you enjoy.

What Is a Herniated or Bulging Disc?

Spinal discs act as cushions between the vertebrae in your spine. A herniated disc occurs when the inner gel-like core (nucleus pulposus) pushes through a tear in the outer layer (annulus fibrosus), potentially pressing on nearby nerves. A bulging disc refers to a disc that extends beyond its normal boundary but hasn’t ruptured. Both conditions can lead to pain, numbness, and weakness in the affected area.

Common Symptoms

  • Localized or radiating pain in the back, neck, arms, or legs

  • Numbness or tingling sensations in the extremities

  • Muscle weakness or loss of reflexes

  • Pain that worsens with certain movements or positions

How Chiropractic Care Can Help

Chiropractic care offers a holistic approach to managing herniated and bulging discs:

  • Spinal Adjustments: Gentle manipulations to realign the spine, reducing nerve pressure and promoting healing.

  • Flexion-Distraction Technique: A non-invasive method that gently stretches the spine to relieve pressure on the discs and nerves.

  • Spinal Decompression Therapy: Mechanical traction that creates negative pressure within the disc, helping to retract the herniated material and alleviate pain.

  • Soft Tissue Therapy: Techniques like myofascial release to relax tight muscles and improve circulation.

  • Rehabilitation Exercises: Customized programs to strengthen supporting muscles and improve spinal stability.

What to Expect During Your Visit

  • Comprehensive Evaluation: A thorough assessment of your medical history, lifestyle, and specific headache symptoms.

  • Personalized Treatment Plan: Development of a tailored plan that may include spinal adjustments, soft tissue therapy, and lifestyle modifications.

  • Ongoing Support: Regular follow-ups to monitor progress and adjust treatments as needed to ensure optimal results.
