Low Back Disc Injuries

Low back disc injuries can significantly affect your daily life, causing pain, stiffness, and restricted movement.

Through gentle techniques, osteopaths help release tension, enhance flexibility, and support recovery. Take proactive steps today to regain your comfort and keep your spine healthy and strong.

Understand What Leads Here

Common Causes and Risk Factors

Poor Posture

Sustaining improper posture over time places undue strain on the spine, increasing vulnerability to disc injuries and degeneration.

Sudden Trauma

Accidents, heavy lifting, or falls can cause abrupt, intense pressure on spinal discs, resulting in herniation or chronic pain.

Repetitive Strain

Continuous bending, twisting, or high-impact activities stress spinal discs, gradually wearing them down and causing long-term damage.

Aging Process

With age, spinal discs lose elasticity, becoming more susceptible to injury, degeneration, and related low back pain symptoms.
