Conditions We Treat

Disk Conditions

(Herniated & Degenerative Disks) Restoring Mobility Starts at the Disk Level.

Disks act as cushions between the bones in your spine. When they become damaged, herniated, or worn down, they can lead to pain, limited movement, and nerve compression.

Types of Disk Problems We Treat

  • Herniated Disk: When the soft inner material pushes through the outer shell, irritating nearby nerves
  • Degenerative Disk Disease: Age-related wear and tear that reduces disk height and flexibility
  • Bulging Disk: A less severe form of herniation that still places pressure on spinal structures
  • Collapsed Disk: Disks that have lost height and shock-absorbing function

Common Symptoms

  • Localized back or neck pain
  • Shooting pain into the legs or arms
  • Stiffness or weakness
  • Numbness or tingling
  • Pain with bending, lifting, or twisting

Treatment Options

Non-Surgical Options:

  • Activity modification, anti-inflammatory medications
  • Physical therapy
  • Spinal injections

Surgical Options (when needed):

  • Microdiscectomy – removal of herniated portion through a tiny incision
  • Disk replacement – preserves motion with an artificial disk
  • Fusion surgery – stabilizes spine when disk is severely damaged

Most procedures are performed minimally invasively with same-day
