Herniation
Herniation of a disc can be debilitating and keep you from doing even the simplest everyday tasks. Orthobiologics Associates offers safe, and effective, treatments for a herniated disc. We have a wide range of options that can target the pain to provide short-term relief, as well as healing for long-term results.
Herniation, fragmentation, and reduction in cushioning of the discs between vertebrae can cause you to lose flexibility, suffer pain and create weakness in your limbs. It may cause agony in your neck, back, legs, thighs, and buttocks. The muscle spasms and stiffness can be unbearable at times. But we can help with your pain and healing.
Discs heal just like your muscles and bones do. There’s a lot of fear in the world today about spine and disc injuries, but the truth is that the body is often highly capable of healing these things!
To be fair, a herniated disc sounds terrifying – the covering of the disc tears/ruptures and the gel-like disc material bulges out, sometimes pinching down on a nerve in your spine. This creates pain at the spot where the tear happened, and can cause radiating pain, numbness, and even weakness into your arms or legs, depending on what level in your spine the herniated disc happened.
Surgery isn’t super common with disc herniations, as the pain often goes away on its own after a couple days to weeks. It’s very important to try and stay active while your body is healing, taking advantage of movements that don’t cause a lot of pain so that your body keeps the blood moving around, effectively healing the herniation.
Orthobiologics for Herniation
Our long-term solution is Cell Therapy Ortho-Biologics which is a non-surgical procedure that can be completed in our office. It offers superior advantages over surgery, including avoiding painful and lengthy recovery periods that are usually required to restore mobility, strength, and range of motion.
Cell Therapy Ortho-Biologics leverages natural regenerative healing to treat pain and mobility issues caused by Herniated Discs. Many patients experience results within weeks.
We stimulate regeneration and healing by introducing natural stem cells for herniated discs into the affected areas. This safe and effective procedure is quick, painless, and minimally invasive. Most patients report returning to normal daily activities within 24-48 hours.
Orthobiologics Associates ,we are most well-known for our integrated approach to healing. We combine western medicine, eastern medicine, and modern medicine approaches to ensure the highest patient outcomes possible, delivering the highest chance of healing and recovery.
Our bodies are capable of healing and regenerating themselves if we provide them with the right opportunity to do so. This is what our non-surgical solutions are all about, creating an environment for the body to heal itself and avoid drugs and surgery.
