Disc Injury Care in Coral Gables
A disc injury can quickly disrupt every part of your day. Whether it’s shooting pain down your leg, trouble sleeping through the night, or struggling to get through your workday without discomfort, damaged spinal discs affect more than just your back; they impact your ability to live actively and fully.
At Besson Chiropractic, Dr. Besson understands how frustrating disc injuries can be, especially when traditional approaches haven’t delivered lasting results. That’s why we offer targeted spinal decompression care designed to address the root cause of your pain and help your body heal naturally.
How Spinal Decompression Helps Disc Injuries
When a disc becomes injured, the affected area becomes inflamed and places direct pressure on nearby nerves. This nerve compression is what causes radiating pain, numbness, tingling, and weakness in your legs or arms.
Spinal decompression works by gently creating space in the spine, relieving pressure on the injured disc, and allowing the affected nerve to breathe again. Dr. Besson carefully determines the specific angle and settings for each patient based on their unique findings, body type, activity level, and history, ensuring each session accurately targets the involved spinal segment.
What makes our approach different is the oscillating pressure setting we use during decompression. This rhythmic “push and pull” motion introduces negative pressure that encourages the disc to rehydrate and plump back up. Because discs are full of fluid, this process helps restore their natural cushioning and promotes long-term healing rather than just temporary relief.
Real Relief for Active Lives
If you’ve been told surgery is your only option, spinal decompression may offer the alternative you’ve been searching for. Most patients begin experiencing some relief around 12 sessions, with more lasting improvement by around 24 sessions. Dr. Besson will monitor your progress and adjust your care as your body responds and heals.
