In order to determine if a spinal disc problem is causing your back pain, you really would need a complete chiropractic examination consisting of:
- A detailed history
- A posture evaluation
- Specific orthopedic testing
- Neurological testing
- X-rays
If the findings are pointing to a bulging disc or a herniated disc, we may refer for an MRI.
Chiropractic care can then help patients by alleviating nerve pressure, reducing inflammation, increasing motion, and promoting healing. Chiropractic care focuses on really restoring normal spinal alignment, improving the spinal biomechanics and creating overall better posture.
