Recognise these symptoms?

  • Sharp or radiating pain in the back, leg, or arm
  • Numbness, tingling, or pins-and-needles in the limb
  • Muscle weakness on one side
  • Pain that worsens with prolonged sitting, sneezing, or bending forward

If three or more sound familiar, a 45-minute clinical assessment will tell you what is producing them — and whether our care is the right path for your condition.

What it is

A slipped disc — also called a herniated or bulging disc — occurs when the soft inner core of a spinal disc pushes through a tear in the outer ring. The displaced material can press on nearby nerves and produce pain, numbness, tingling, or weakness in the affected limb.

I was having back pain late last year. Went to hospital and doctor told me I have a minor slipped disc. Up to date, the treatment works and I am really happy. They say it would not hurt investing a bit for your health.

Our treatment approach

Most slipped discs do not require surgery. Our protocol begins with a full clinical assessment to confirm the diagnosis and identify the affected level, followed by spinal decompression therapy to reduce intradiscal pressure, manual therapy to address the surrounding muscular and joint compensations, and a progressive rehabilitative exercise programme to rebuild stability and prevent recurrence.

Modalities used

  • Spinal decompression therapy
  • Chiropractic adjustment
  • Low-level laser therapy
  • Radial shockwave therapy
  • Rehabilitative exercise

What to expect

Most patients begin to notice symptom reduction within four to six sessions. A full structural correction typically takes 8–12 weeks of twice-weekly care, followed by a maintenance phase to consolidate gains.

If this matches your symptoms

  • Most cases of slipped disc are non-surgical when treated with the right protocol.
  • Every patient begins with a structured 45-minute clinical assessment with a doctor — $88 introductory consultation.
  • If our care is not the right path for your condition, we will say so and refer you on.

In most cases, yes. Conservative treatment for slipped disc resolves the condition for the majority of patients without surgery. We will tell you honestly if your case is one where surgical consultation is the right path.
No referral is required. If you have prior imaging — X-ray, MRI, specialist correspondence — bringing it to the first consultation helps the clinician build a more complete picture from the start.
