Condition
Slip Disc: how we help
A slip disc, sometimes called a slipped or bulging disc, happens when one of the soft cushions between your spine bones pushes out and presses on a nearby nerve. This can cause pain in your back or neck that may travel down an arm or a leg. It often builds up slowly, after lifting something the wrong way, or from long hours sitting bent over a desk, a phone or a two-wheeler.
How we help
- A careful check to understand which nerve is affected and what makes your pain better or worse
- Hands-on treatment to ease pain, muscle tightness and stiffness
- Guided exercises to help ease pressure on the nerve and strengthen the muscles that support your spine
- Simple advice on lifting, sitting and daily habits so the disc is less likely to get irritated again
What to expect
Your first visit begins with a detailed check of your posture, movement and the exact pattern of your pain. Your physiotherapist will explain what they find in plain language and build a plan that suits you. Where suitable, they may suggest treatments the clinic offers, such as spinal decompression, which aims to gently ease pressure on the affected area. What is used, and when, is always decided from what your assessment shows.
Common questions
Do I need surgery for a slip disc?
Many slip disc problems improve with time and the right physiotherapy, without needing surgery. Your physiotherapist will assess your condition and tell you if you should see a doctor for further checks.
Is it safe to exercise with a slip disc?
The right exercises can help, but the wrong ones may make things worse. Your physiotherapist will guide you on which movements are safe for your stage of recovery.
How long will it take to feel better?
This is different for each person and depends on how your body responds to treatment. Your physiotherapist will give you a clearer idea after your first assessment.
