Getting Rid of Herniated Disc Pain and Maintaining a More Active Life


Do you refrain from doing many activities you love because of a debilitating lower back pain? Are your career choices limited because your bad back is affecting not just your mobility, but also your mental focus? Like the plight of millions of residents in the United States, you may be suffering from herniated disc pain. Better keep yourself posted with the latest medical know how, and have your testimony counted in getting rid of herniated disc pain.

Basic Facts on Herniated Disc Pain

The spinal discs act as cushions between the bones in your spine. The interior portion of the spinal disc is a jelly-like substance called the nucleus and it is encircled by an outer band composed of tough fibrous tissues, called the annulus. More pressure emanating from unusual physical activity like heavy weight lifting and injury may trigger the nucleus to get displaced outside the outer band or annulus which can apply pressure to your spinal nerves thus causing your lower back pain. Moreover, as you grow older the annulus or outer band in your spinal discs turns fragile or starts to break down thus commonly creating herniated disc pain to older people.

Many people suffering from back pain have resorted to medications to manage the pain. Many have also become concerned about the side-effects of the amount of anti-inflammatory medications they are taking to cope with herniated disc pain. However, a new treatment is now available which can safely improve the management and treatment of herniated disc pain. You just have to keep yourself updated and confer with a medical practitioner about the FDA approved spinal decompression treatment which can address herniated disc pain.

Spinal Decompression Treatments for Herniated Disc Pain Sufferers

In few cases, spinal decompression treatments have yielded better results as disclosed by clinical studies. More and more doctors have expressed confidence in applying this procedure. Why? The treatment is focused on the underlying cause of pain by inducing healing process to the injured spinal disc. How is the procedure? The spinal disc decompression allows the herniated disc to heal itself by aligning into normal position and by increasing the flow of blood carrying nutrients, oxygen and water to the nucleus of the spinal discs.

The spinal disc decompression also mildly frees the pressure affecting the spinal nerves that cause the herniated disc pain. Most importantly, spinal decompression treatments are 86% effective, without damaging side-effects, inexpensive, non-surgical and FDA approved.

Period of Spinal Decompression Treatments

The treatment for spinal decompression can last  from 20 to 28 sessions with 20-30 minute treatment duration for each. Treatment response to herniated discs can be visible within 20 spinal decompression sessions. Some patients even feel some relief earlier after undergoing 3 to 8 treatment session. As of today, studies have demonstrated that most patients attain full remission from herniated disc pain after they have completed their first spinal decompression therapy program. Meanwhile patients faced with degenerative spinal disc conditions have to undergo maintenance therapy to sustain a painless status.

If you are confronted with herniated disc, it is high time for you to take the route of inexpensive and non-surgical procedure which is not only capable of managing the pain but also capable of wiping out the pain.
