Q. Should I be seeing a chiropractor for my bulging discs?

A. Bulging discs – or compressed/degenerative discs – can be treated in multiple ways, including chiropractic. However, special testing needs to be done to determine the disc is the actual source of pain. Treatment will depend on the cause of pain and the accompanying symptoms.

We provide the highest level of care in the treatment of chronic back pain through accurate diagnosis, proper treatment and ongoing follow-up care.
