Many people suffer pain caused by herniated discs. The disc is a soft tissue located in the spine. When herniated the more fluid inner layer extends through the harder outer layer of tissue. The natural shape of the disc is distorted, it bulges and no longer provides the cushion needed to separate the bones. A Pomona chiropractor may be able to speed the healing of an injured disc.
Your spine is composed of bone and soft tissue known as discs. The bone is rigid and hard but the discs are soft and flexible so that you can bend in many different ways. The disc has two layers, a firmer outer layer and a fluid like inner layer. Injuries to the outer layer may allow the inner layer to bulge through causing a herniated disc.
Your body is often able to heal itself if given just a little help. Chiropractic care helps to speed the healing process. The chiropractor uses processes that give the help needed for the body to do its own natural healing.
Spinal decompression has been shown effective at speeding the healing process in a majority of persons suffering from herniated discs. The process uses a table driven by motors to gently stretch the back so that an injured disc can regain the natural shape. The process will be repeated over several weeks. Each time the procedure is done, the disc reabsorbs more of the fluid layer allowing the outer layer to heal.
Chiropractic care does not require the long healing time of surgery. While you may have several appointments each week, you can continue your normal schedule. This means that you can still go to work each day in order to take care of your family. At the same time, you disc will be healing and you will start to feel less pain.
