Herniated Disc Treatment in Long Beach
Physical therapy helps herniated discs by reducing pressure on the affected nerve, improving spinal mobility, and strengthening core muscles that support the spine. The McKenzie method and spinal stabilization exercises are particularly effective.
About Herniated Disc
A herniated disc occurs when the soft center of a spinal disc pushes through a crack in the tougher exterior casing. This can irritate nearby nerves, causing pain, numbness, or weakness in an arm or leg. The condition most often occurs in the lower back (lumbar spine) or neck (cervical spine).
