Disc Injury (Slipped Disc) Physiotherapy

Settle the pain and nerve symptoms of a slipped or herniated disc and rebuild a strong, stable spine — most cases recover well without surgery.

Understanding it

What is Disc Injury (Slipped Disc)?

A disc injury, often called a slipped or herniated disc, happens when the soft cushion between two spine bones bulges and irritates nearby nerves. It can cause back pain along with leg or arm symptoms.

The good news is that most disc injuries settle with the right physiotherapy. We reduce nerve irritation, restore movement and strengthen the spine so you can return to normal life.
