On The Topic Of Disc Bulges…

Here are a few of my top suggestions/facts when it comes to disc bulges and back pain:

  • Disc herniations can be caused by a single trauma, as well as chronic postural dysfunctions. Movement and postural dysfunctions can only be corrected by focusing on them.
  • Inadequate body hydration levels must be addressed in spinal dysfunction, especially spinal discs!
  • Respiratory mechanics as well as abdominal wall function is imperative to spinal function. Loss of function creates inability of diaphragm attachments to decompress L-4/L-5, the most commonly herniated disc.
  • Rebuilding spinal discs takes nutritional support and good health. Your body makes new tissues out of what you put in your mouth. An inadequate diet and unhealthy lifestyle practices contribute to slow healing.
  • Disc derangements do not HAVE to be operated on. There are specific movement techniques that can assist you in stabilizing your spine and reducing disc bulges.
  • Healing from a disc bulge takes commitment and time. After a disc has bulged, it can take as much as 18 months to fully heal the torn annular fibers within the disc. This does NOT mean that it will take that long to get out of pain, but instead a reminder to take care of your spine over the long run in order to prevent future injury.

    “I've used Sam on more than one occasion to help me with back pain issues. As a full time web designer I often spent too many hours sitting behind the pc which led to chronic back pain. I started working with Sam a few years ago and his knowledge and insight helped me to alleviate my back pain issues and even improve my posture. Whenever I start to have back pain issues I just re-implement the tools and techniques he showed to me and in no time my back pain goes away. He really is the back pain specialist!”
