Chiropractor for herniated disc

Hernias can be very impeding in daily activities, yet we often see in our practice that people stay with their symptoms for a long time. Common problems with herniated discs include (back) pain, radiating pain to the buttock or leg, tingling and numbness, muscle weakness, difficulty with movement and changes in bladder and bowel function, for example. We sometimes hear that people doubt whether it is possible to go to a chiropractor if you have a herniated disc. The answer to that is very simple: yes, you should go to a chiropractor precisely when you have a hernia! Chiropractic care can be very effective in relieving the pain caused by the herniated disc, helping you become more flexible as well as get a better physique. However, our focus is not on suppressing the symptoms of the herniated disc, but on improving your overall health and quality of life. At The Family Chiropractor, we don't just look for the solution to your problem, but rather look for the underlying cause so that we can prevent complaints in the future. We take a holistic view of the body, so we don't just look at your herniated disc, but rather at your entire body, lifestyle and stature. Wondering what a chiropractor can do for herniated discs?
