Herniated Discs Can Heal

A recent study has found that low back herniated discs (LDH) can heal without surgery. This is the first study to investigate changes in the size of LDHs, and disc heights over a significant period of time (8 years). Only 12.5% became worse, most remained unchanged or decreased. The findings encourage those who suffer from a herniated disc not to rush into surgery. 

Our office treats patients with herniated discs non-surgically with hands-on manipulation, special traction therapies, and disc-reduction exercises.
