What Are Some Alternative to Disc Surgery?

If you experience excruciating back pain, you may have recently been told that you need to undergo disc surgery. That can be a scary topic to think about and you may be unsure if you’re comfortable with going through it. It can be a long recovery process and that’s not always an option you may be able to take. There are many chiropractic treatments that can be used as an alternative to disc surgery, and you can start easing your pain without surgery. Your chiropractors at Sheldon Road Chiropractic & Massage Therapy in Tampa, FL, can explain some alternatives to disc surgery that you can consider.

Alternatives to Disc Surgery

Surgery can be an overwhelming decision to consider. Going through surgery can be scary and thinking about the recovery process could be exhausting to imagine. There are alternatives to disc surgery that your chiropractor in Tampa, FL, can recommend to improve your quality of life without needing surgery.

One method is through spinal decompression. There is a state-of-the-art spinal decompression machine that is used to stretch out pinched or compressed joints. This decreases pressure on your spinal nerves and increases oxygen to your discs. This helps improve your flexibility and overall function.

Another alternative is laser therapy. There’s a cold laser therapy that uses visible and non-visible light to stimulate the tissue and increase cellular metabolism and help to regenerate tissue. You should start having less inflammation and pain.

One more alternative is MLS laser therapy. This stimulates heat and reduces pain and inflammation. Swelling and pain will go down and your muscles can start repairing quicker.
