Herniated & Bulged Discs

Chiropractic vs. Surgery for Herniated disc…Chiropractic Healing Center offers non-invasive treatment for bulging, ruptured, or herniated discs (slipped discs).

A herniated disc or bulged disc starts out small and then gradually builds until you start to feel…PAIN. There is n intervertebral disc

between each vertebra of the spine. Discs are the shock absorbers that cushion and support the vertebrae. Without these discs, your spine

could not function. The discs make up an outer layer (annulus fibrosus) and the soft inside (nucleus pulposus). If there is too much

stress on the disc due to poor posture, being overweight, trauma (as in an auto accident), sports injuries or falls, the material inside the disc can begin to PUSH OUT.

Dr. Alampi will look for specific indications for disc damage such as loss of muscle strength, muscle wasting, decrease sensation along

the path of a nerve… all indications of possible herniated disc. Here at Chiropractic Healing Center we evaluate the entire spine.
