A herniated disc can make even the smallest movements feel like a struggle. It does not have to be this way. Get the treatment you need to move freely again.
A herniated disc, or slipped disc, occurs when the soft inner part of a spinal disc pushes through the tougher outer layer, often pressing on nearby nerves. This can cause sharp pain, numbness, and weakness—often in the lower back, legs, or even arms.
At first, it’s a mild ache, but soon, it turns into a sharp, shooting pain when you bend to tie your shoes or twist to get out of the car. Suddenly, every movement feels unpredictable. You hesitate before lifting your child, worry about how you’ll manage a full workday, and even think twice about booking that long-awaited holiday for fear of not being able to keep up.
But a herniated disc does not have to dictate your life.
At Essex Coast Physio, we use expert spinal mobilisation, nerve release techniques, and strengthening exercises to reduce pain, restore function, and give you back the confidence to move freely.
Don’t let pain stop you from living your life to the fullest—get the right treatment today.
