Relieve pain and restore mobility with professional slipped disc osteopath treatment at MHV Clinic. Our holistic approach targets the root cause for lasting recovery and improved well-being.
These discs act as cushions, absorbing shock and enabling flexibility. However, when a disc moves out of place, it can press on the surrounding nerves, leading to pain, discomfort, and sometimes even numbness or weakness.
The spine comprises 24 bones, known as vertebrae, and between each one lies a disc made of a soft, gel-like centre encased in a more rigid outer layer. When this outer layer weakens or tears, the inner substance can protrude, putting pressure on nearby nerves and causing the symptoms commonly associated with a slipped disc.
If left untreated, a slipped disc can cause more severe conditions, such as chronic back pain, nerve damage, or impaired movement. Early detection and treatment are essential to prevent long-term issues and ensure optimal spinal health.
A slipped disc, also known as a herniated or prolapsed disc, occurs when the soft inner substance of a spinal disc pushes through its outer layer. This can lead to discomfort, pain, numbness, or weakness that radiates along the spine and limbs. At MHV Clinic, our specialised osteopath employs a holistic approach to help slipped disc pain, promote healing, and improve overall spinal health.
When a disc slips, it may exert pressure on nearby nerves, resulting in radiating back pain and reduced mobility. Common symptoms include:
Left untreated, a slipped disc can significantly limit daily activities and overall quality of life.
