Slipped Disc Treatment

The intervertebral discs can be considered ‘spacers’ that are present between each vertebral body of the spinal column. Each disc is comprised of tough rings of fibrous tissue called collagen. In the centre of each disc is contained a nucleus which is a gel like material, which is under pressure, and gives the disc the ability to bend. The intervertebral disc is an important structure, and vulnerable to injury, so it’s important to understand what activities can injury this structure, and just how you go about fixing it.

In this episode we discuss the common mechanisms behind injury to the intervertebral disc, and highlight the activities that are contributing to the problem. We discuss how a single event rarely causes injury but that repetitive actions are often the culprit, and what we need to be aware of to fix the underlying issue. We discuss how a ‘passive’ based approach to disc injury management WILL NOT solve the damage, without a consideration for daily spine hygiene and active rehabilitation.
