Walk right back to a life free from debilitating pain

SPINAL disc herniation, also known as a slipped disc, is a medical condition affecting the spine in which a tear in the outer, fibrous ring of an inter-vertebral disc allows the soft, central portion and inflammatory chemical mediators to be released into the spinal canal resulting in severe back and leg pain.

Most slipped discs are caused by general wear and tear, such as when performing jobs that require constant sitting, squatting or driving.

The majority of cases affect the low back (95% lumbar region either at L4/L5 or L5/S1, with the neck the next most commonly involved region, either C5/C6 or C6/ C7.
