Disc injuries can affect how you sit, stand, work, and move — often causing sharp pain, nerve irritation, or limited mobility. At Touchstone Chiropractic Center, we offer natural, non-invasive care for disc-related injuries to support healing, function, and long-term spinal health.
Whether your discomfort started suddenly or developed gradually, chiropractic care may help reduce pain and improve everyday movement.
Between each vertebra is a soft disc that cushions the spine and allows for flexibility. When a disc becomes irritated, bulges, or herniates, it can place pressure on surrounding nerves or tissues.

Disc injuries may present as:

Your treatment plan may include:
Plans are personalized based on severity, goal, and activity level.
Chiropractic adjustments help improve spinal alignment, movement, and function. When the spine moves better, discs experience less stress and pressure.

✔ Reduced nerve irritation
✔ Better mobility and range of motion
✔ Improved posture and mechanics
✔ Less inflammation and tension
✔ Enhanced function during work & daily tasks
✔ Reduced risk of future flare-ups
We aim to help patients move and feel better — not just manage symptoms.
