Herniated Disc Treatment in Seattle, WA

Effective Chiropractic Care for Herniated Discs

A herniated disc, often referred to as a slipped or ruptured disc, occurs when the soft inner gel of a disc escapes through a tear in the tougher exterior, leading to nerve irritation, inflammation, and pain. This condition can affect any part of the spine but most commonly occurs in the lumbar region (lower back) or the cervical region (neck). At Fremont Spine + Wellness, we focus on non-surgical treatments to alleviate pain and restore mobility.

Symptoms of Herniated Discs:

Back or Neck Pain: Intense, sharp pain in the area of the herniated disc.

Arm Pain: When the herniation is in the cervical spine, pain can radiate down the arms and hands.
Numbness or Tingling: Patients often experience these sensations in the body areas served by the affected nerves.
