Slipped Disc
A slipped disc, also known as a herniated disc or disc protrusion, is a common spinal condition that can cause significant discomfort. At MyChiroPlus, we specialize in providing comprehensive chiropractic care to address slipped discs and their associated symptoms. Our skilled chiropractors are dedicated to helping you find relief, improve spinal function, and enhance your overall well-being.
Causes of Slipped Disc:
Slipped discs can be caused by various factors, including:
Age-related Degeneration
As you age, the spinal discs can lose their elasticity and become more prone to herniation or bulging.
Traumatic Injury
Sudden, forceful movements, such as lifting heavy objects or a fall, can cause the disc to slip out of place.
Repetitive Strain
Repeated activities or movements that put stress on the spine, such as bending, twisting, or heavy lifting, can contribute to disc herniation over time.
Poor Posture
Prolonged periods of sitting or standing with poor posture can increase the risk of disc herniation.
Spinal Misalignment
Subluxations or misalignments of the spine can affect the distribution of forces on the discs, making them more susceptible to slipping.
Symptoms of Slipped Disc:
Common symptoms associated with a slipped disc include:
Back or Neck Pain
Localized pain in the affected area of the spine, which may radiate to other parts of the body.
Numbness or Tingling
Sensations of numbness, tingling, or a "pins and needles" feeling in the arms, legs, or other areas served by the affected nerves.
Muscle Weakness
Weakness or difficulty in certain muscle groups, depending on the location of the slipped disc.
Radiating Pain
Pain that travels along the path of the affected nerve, such as sciatica in the case of a slipped disc in the lower back.
Limited Mobility
Decreased range of motion and flexibility in the spine, potentially leading to difficulty with daily activities.
Effective Slipped Disc Relief with Chiropractic Care:
At MyChiroPlus, we provide specialized chiropractic treatments for slipped discs to help manage pain, reduce inflammation, and improve spinal function. Our chiropractors utilize gentle adjustments, spinal decompression therapy, targeted exercises, and other techniques to alleviate symptoms, promote healing, and support long-term spinal health.

“The are many chiropractors in Puchong but Dr Nic from MyChiroPlus has always been an obvious choice for me. The difference between the chiropractors at this clinic than other clinics is they are young and they don’t assume they know more about your illness than you do. You will be treated and be involved in the treatment respectfully.
I have been bringing my father-in-law here for his shoulder treatment and my wife has been here a few times too. MyChiroPlus is my preferred chiropractor clinic in Puchong!”
