Fast Slipped Disc Pain Relief in San Diego, CA

What You Need to Know

Understanding a "Slipped Disc"

A "slipped disc," also known as a herniated disc, occurs when the soft, gel-like center of a spinal disc pushes through a tear in the tougher, outer layer. This can cause irritation to nearby nerves, resulting in pain, numbness, or weakness in an arm or leg.

How Does a Slipped Disc Happen?

Slipped discs can happen due to several reasons:

1. Age-Related Wear and Tear: As we age, our spinal discs lose some of their water content, making them less flexible and more prone to tearing or rupturing with even a minor strain or twist.
2. Injury: Trauma or injury to the spine can cause discs to rupture.
3. Repetitive Movements: Repetitive activities that involve lifting, bending, or twisting can put stress on the spine, increasing the risk of a herniated disc.
4. Poor Posture: Poor sitting or standing posture can contribute to disc problems over time.
5. Genetics: Some people inherit a predisposition to developing herniated discs.

Why Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression (NSSD) Works So Well

Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression (NSSD) is a revolutionary treatment designed to alleviate the pain and symptoms caused by a slipped disc. Here's a simple, step-by-step explanation of how NSSD works and why it’s so effective:

1. Assessment and Customization: Each patient is thoroughly evaluated to understand the severity and specifics of their condition. A personalized treatment plan is then created.
2. Controlled Decompression: The patient lies comfortably on the DRX 9000 machine, which gently stretches the spine. This creates a negative pressure within the disc.
3. Pressure Relief: The negative pressure allows the bulging or herniated disc material to retract back into the disc.
4. Enhanced Healing: By relieving the pressure on the discs and nerves, blood flow and nutrient exchange are improved, promoting natural healing.

How NSSD Helps Reverse Disc Problems

NSSD not only provides relief but also helps in reversing the damage:

1. Reduction of Pressure: The gentle stretching reduces the pressure on the affected discs.
2. Promotion of Natural Healing: Improved blood flow and nutrient exchange help repair the damaged disc.
3. Strengthening of Surrounding Muscles: The treatment often includes exercises to strengthen the muscles around the spine, providing better support and preventing future issues.
