Surgery Alternative Pain Relief for Disc Herniation in Kearny Mesa, CA
If you’re dealing with disc degeneration disc herniation and exploring your options, it’s crucial to consider non-surgical alternatives before committing to invasive procedures. While surgery can sometimes be necessary, it often comes with risks and may not address the root cause of your pain. At The Spinal Decompression & Chiropractic Center of San Diego, located in Kearny Mesa, we specialize in providing Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression (NSSD)—a highly effective, non-invasive treatment for disc degeneration and related conditions.
Why Surgery Isn't Always the Best Solution
Although surgery might seem like a quick fix, it often comes with potential complications such as long recovery periods, infection risks, and even the possibility of failed back surgery syndrome (FBSS)—where pain persists or worsens. In many cases, surgery addresses symptoms rather than the underlying issues, making it vital to consider safer, long-term options like NSSD.
What You Can Do at Home
While NSSD provides an advanced solution for disc degeneration and disc herniation, there are steps you can take at home to support your spine:
- Stay Active: Engage in low-impact activities such as walking or swimming to maintain mobility and circulation.
- Practice Good Posture: Sitting and standing with proper posture reduces pressure on your spine.
- Stretch Daily: Gentle stretching exercises help relieve tension and improve flexibility.
- Maintain a Healthy Weight: Extra weight can increase stress on your spine, so eating a balanced diet and staying active are crucial.
- Use Ice and Heat Therapy: Alternate between ice packs and heating pads to manage inflammation and improve blood flow to the affected area.
Why Choose Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression
NSSD is a breakthrough in spine care that gently relieves spinal compression and promotes natural healing. By using the DRX 9000, the most advanced decompression machine available, we create a negative pressure within the discs, allowing herniated or bulging discs to retract. This reduces pressure on the nerves and restores oxygen and nutrients to the damaged area for healing.
Why NSSD Works Better Than Surgery for Many
NSSD is a safe and effective way to treat conditions such as disc degeneration without the risks or downtime associated with surgery. Key benefits include:
- Targeted Relief: NSSD addresses the root cause of pain by decompressing the spine.
- Healing Support: It enhances nutrient flow to damaged discs, promoting recovery.
- Avoiding Risks: NSSD helps patients avoid the complications and recovery challenges associated with invasive procedures.
Why We Have 7 DRX 9000 Machines
Our office is proud to house 7 DRX 9000 machines, allowing us to accommodate more patients and reduce wait times. Even with this capacity, the demand for our services often results in a waiting list—further evidence of how effective NSSD can be for patients seeking long-term pain relief.
Why Every Treatment Plan Is Personalized
We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all treatment plans. Each patient’s condition is unique, and their recovery should be, too. That’s why we combine NSSD with active therapies such as spinal stability exercises to ensure lasting results. Active therapies help patients build strength and stability in the muscles supporting the spine, reducing the likelihood of recurring pain.
