Herniated Disc Treatment in Los Angeles

Conservative Care for Disc Pain and Nerve Symptoms

Herniated disc treatment in Los Angeles at Faye Chiropractic is conservative and non-surgical whenever appropriate. Dr. Heather Faye determines whether your pain stems from the disc itself, joint dysfunction, muscular adaptation, or nerve irritation, then builds a plan around that diagnosis.

A herniated disc occurs when part of the spinal disc extends beyond its normal boundaries and may irritate nearby nerves, resulting in neck or back pain, numbness, tingling, weakness or pain that radiates into the arms or legs.

Our goal is to provide conservative, non-surgical care whenever appropriate. A thorough examination helps determine whether your symptoms are related to the disc itself, joint dysfunction, muscular adaptation, or nerve irritation. When indicated, diagnostic imaging such as MRI or X-rays may be recommended to help guide treatment decisions. If your condition requires additional medical evaluation or surgical consultation, we work closely with trusted specialists and will make referrals when appropriate.

Could a Disc Be Behind Your Pain?

Pain radiates from your lower back into your leg, or neck into your arm

Numbness, tingling, or weakness has developed in a hand, arm, leg, or foot

Bending, sitting, or lifting sharply increases your neck or lower back pain

Coughing or sneezing sends a jolt of pain through your spine or limb

An MRI or X-ray has shown a disc problem, and you want non-surgical options

Pain started suddenly after lifting, twisting, or straining during everyday activity

Easing Disc Pressure Without Surgery

Many disc-related symptoms come from pressure and irritation around nearby nerves. Conservative care aims to reduce that stress, restore healthy spinal movement, and calm surrounding muscles so you can return to normal activity more comfortably.
