Lumbar decompression is a method that is effective in treating the pain in the lower back. It is connected with degenerative disc disease and bulging discs, herniated discs, and can help patients to return to an active lifestyle.
Since the discs in your spine act like shock absorbers, the discs can bulge or have herniation due to everyday wear and tear.
Disc degeneration is a result of the spongy disc drying out. With injury or just as a result of time, the discs can dry out or teat and put pressure on the nerves. Muscle tension and back pain are a result of disc degeneration.
