Bulging and Herniated Disc treatment in Lubbock
I've had several people comment lately on how they'd love to refer someone to see me for treatment but aren't sure if I could help them because "they have a bulging disc." One thing they don't realize is that I'm an expert in bulging and herniated discs. I am a Certified Decompression Therapy Practitioner through the Kennedy Decompression Technique. This training has allowed me to fully evaluate disc problems in the neck and low back and the proper course of treatment. Several other chiropractors in town have decompression tables but no other doctor has as much training as I do in using the tables effectively. The decompression tables allow me to take pressure off the discs and thus take pressure off of spinal nerves. The treatment is practically pain-free and highly effective. I frequently get referrals for treatment from medical doctors such as pain specialists, general practitioners, and even neurosurgeons. I get referrals from them because I am thorough in my evaluation and straightforward in my care. If I don't think I can help a person, I won't waste their time or money. If you or someone you know has a bulging disc, let me see if I can help them before they begin using dangerous drugs or undergo surgery.

What do Chiropractic Doctors Treat?
Many people think of DC's as treating low backs only. Or, they think of them as only treating necks and low backs. People are oftentimes surprised to know that DC's treat conditions such as
- Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (wrist/hand pain),
- Foot and ankle pain including heel spurs and plantar fascitis,
- Headaches-Migraine, TMJ, and Neck related
- TMJ Dysfunction (Jaw pain)
- Knee pain
- Nutritional disorders
- Bulging discs and pinched nerves
While not only treating the spinal and muskuloskeletal disorders, Chiropractic Doctors have had patients note relief with the following disorders while under a DC's care:
- GERD or Heartburn
- Colic in infants
- Enuresis or bed-wetting
- Sinus congestion
- reduction in severity of Otitis Media or middle ear infections
- Difficulty sleeping
- Painful periods and lack of periods in women
