Experienced Slip Disc Physiotherapy Treatment
A slipped disc can be painful, limiting, and frustrating, especially when it affects your ability to move comfortably or go about daily life. At Willoughby Physio and Chiro, we offer caring, tailored physiotherapy designed to support people with a slipped disc, helping relieve pain while improving mobility and confidence.
A slipped disc, is more correctly called a herniated disc or bulging disc, and occurs when the soft centre of a spinal disc pushes out and places pressure on nearby nerves.. This may cause lower back pain, neck discomfort, stiffness, tingling, or pain that travels into the arms or legs. Whether your slipped disc developed gradually or followed an injury, the right physiotherapy treatment plays an important role in recovery.
Understanding Slipped Disc Symptoms
Many people experience a slipped disc differently. Some feel sharp or persistent pain, while others notice weakness, reduced flexibility, or nerve-related symptoms. A herniated disc may worsen with certain movements, prolonged sitting, or poor posture. A bulging disc, while often less severe, can still cause discomfort and interfere with daily activities if left unmanaged.
Early and appropriate care is important. Our team focuses on understanding your symptoms, movement patterns, and comfort levels before creating a tailored plan.
Physiotherapy for Slipped Disc Relief
Our physiotherapy for slipped disc care is centred on gentle, supportive techniques that respect your body’s healing process. Treatment may include:
Guided movement and mobility exercises
- Gentle hands-on techniques to ease stiffness
- Postural advice for work, sleep, and daily activities
- Strengthening exercises to support the spine
- Education to help prevent flare-ups
Each program is adjusted to your needs, ensuring your care remains safe, comfortable, and progressive. Our goal is not just symptom relief, but helping you move with more ease and confidence so you can perform at your best and get back to doing what you love.
Supporting Herniated and Bulging Disc Recovery
Both a herniated disc and a bulging disc can respond well to consistent physiotherapy when guided carefully. Our approach avoids forceful techniques and instead focuses on restoring movement safely with guided movement and strengthening exercises. Over time, many patients notice improved comfort, reduced nerve symptoms, and better control of everyday movements.
