Suffering from lower back, buttock, or perhaps leg pain and you've been told its cause is degenerative disc disease? In Montreal, Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic treats patients like you all day, every day in clinical practice. Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic offers relief of degenerative disc disease pain under chiropractic treatment is based on the following information.
Degenerative Disc Disease Changes How You Move
When a disc degenerates, it alters the normal motion and movements of the lower back or neck. Do you find that you cannot move your spine as smoothly and completely when you have lower back pain?
Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic looks at this problem as follows. Spinal motion occurs at certain joints named facet joints. The intervertebral disc is in front of these joints.
A normal disc accepts 90% of the weight bearing of the entire body when we stand, sit or move the spine.
A degenerative disc (one that has lost its flexibility and shrunk in size) forces the facet joints to carry much more than the 10% they normally do.
Under such compressive pressure, the facets become painful and lose their normal movements. You don't move like you used to.
Degenerative disc disease alters normal motion of your spine. (1) Patients with disc degeneration show abnormal motion in parts of the spine like...
- More side bending movement.
- Less rotation in the upper part of the low back when bending forward and backward at the waist.
- More twisting and rotation in the lower part of the low back.
Such increased rotational motion at the level of the spine where degenerative disc disease occurs also causes neighboring levels of the spine to degenerate as well. This is the "snowball effect" of degenerative disc disease; it keeps going.
Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic has a relief plan to slow it down, stop pain and return motion.
