Many people don’t realize that bulging discs can present without any symptoms, while others experience pain, tingling, or numbness that disrupts daily life. This is where an expert diagnosis from our team becomes critical. From this diagnosis and assessment of severity, we can work together on making the decision to consult with one of our trusted Spinal Surgeons for referral or continue with Conservative Care and Physical Therapy.
At Minnesota Movement Sports Chiropractic in Excelsior, we provide specialized care for bulging discs, herniated discs, and related spinal conditions. Whether your symptoms began after a workout, long hours at a desk, or something as simple as bending down to pick up a pencil, our trained Sports Chiropractors are here to help you recover—without the need for invasive procedures.
Most people are chasing the wrong goal.
Pain-free shouldn’t be the destination. Being free from pain should be.
