At Spinal Care Clinics in Brentwood, we provide expert, evidence-based care for disc bulges, herniations, and related nerve issues.
We’re here to help you move confidently, feel better, and get back to the life you love.
Understanding Slipped Discs / Disc Herniation
A slipped disc happens when the soft centre of a spinal disc pushes through its outer shell, often pressing on nearby nerves. This can cause pain, numbness, weakness, or radiating discomfort in the arms or legs. It’s also referred to as a bulging or herniated disc.
We’ve helped many clients recover from this condition using integrated, non-invasive treatments that relieve pressure, reduce inflammation, and restore spinal balance.
Common symptoms we see:
- Sharp or burning back/neck pain
- Radiating pain into arms or legs
- Tingling, numbness, or “pins and needles”
- Muscle weakness or reduced grip/walking strength
- Pain worsened by movement, bending, or lifting
- Sciatica symptoms including shooting leg pain
Our approach addresses both the symptoms and the cause, using a blend of chiropractic care, rehab, and soft tissue therapy.
