Herniated disc, pinched nerve, bulging disc, slipped disc rehabilitation with our physiotherapist in London

Most minor and moderate back injuries are treated without the need for surgery. Herniated discs may require surgery depending on the patient and the severity of the condition. Physiotherapy plays a major role in your recovery from back injuries or conditions, whether you have just had surgery or not. It will not only offer relief from acute or chronic pain, but it will also teach you how to protect your back in order to prevent further injury.

The foundation for efficient herniated disc, pinched nerve, bulging disc, slipped disc rehabilitation

Initially our orthopaedic physiotherapist in London will use different techniques to relieve your pain, such as hot and cold therapy and deep tissue massage. Once your body heals and the pain subdues, our London physiotherapist will start applying active treatments with tailored exercises in order to strengthen your core muscles and improve your stability. Strengthening your back and learning how to perform day to day movements properly will help you stay pain and injury free longer term. Having a strong back is important but a healthy back also needs flexibility. Our physiotherapist in London will also gently stretch your back and teach you back stretching exercises that you can perform at home by yourself. Stretching won’t only give your more flexibility, but will also help relieve pain, as it will alleviate some of the pressure created by the bulging disc.

More information about herniated disk, slipped disk, bulging disk and pinched nerve

What is a herniated disk, slipped disk, bulging disk or pinched nerve?

These terms refer to a problem with one of the disks between the individual vertebrae of your spine. These disks act as cushions between the vertebrae and each disk has a soft, jelly like consistency. If this jelly like material “leaks” from the disk, it causes it to bulge and potentially press on adjacent nerves causing pain and discomfort. If the bulge is significant enough, then the condition is called herniated disk and it might require surgery in order to not affect the function of the spinal nerves. A disk injury may occur when you lift something heavy in an awkward position, or twist your lower back during that movement, causing sudden trauma, or from accumulated repeated microtrauma due to bad posture and weak core and back muscles.
