Physical Therapy and Spinal Decompression Traction offer relief for the symptoms of bulged and herniated discs.
The discs of the spine are designed to act as a cushion between the vertebrae (bones of the spine). They consist of an outer shell, the annulus fibrosus, which surrounds and covers the nucleus pulposus, the inner, gel-like portion of the disc. These intervertebral discs allow for comfortable movement of the vertebrae and act as a ligament to hold the spine together.
