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.
Remember back in high school or college when you’d have to write a paper for an assignment? Even if it was just 500 words, starting the paper was always the hardest. I’m not alone in that feeling, right?
It’s interesting, because the same issue is often felt with any intimidating or daunting task we need or want to pursue in life.
But when it comes to ACTION, we generally falter after a few good college tries. This is the difference between motion and action.
Motions are strategizing, planning, and learning. And at the end of the day it doesn’t matter how much you do any of those things - they don’t produce results. Action on the other hand is what delivers an outcome.
That dude in the truck cuts you off at the zipper merge, we have a giant deadline coming up, and your kid is throwing a tantrum in the back seat. Stress is a bugger. But we can learn to handle it a LOT better.
How? Just like any exercise or habit. From repeated and conscious attention to it. Simply by forcing ourselves into micro-stressors helps us mitigate our responses to more expansive ones. This is not akin to being afraid of heights and deciding to 'get over it' and walk a tightrope between two skyscrapers. Go back and read the first sentence of this paragraph again. Repeated and conscious attention. We have to be mindful and deliberate with how we proceed through the stressors.
