Bulgimg or Herniated disc
One of the most common causes of sciatica is a herniated disc. Herniate means bulge or stick out. Intervertebral discs are the soft discs that form a cushion between the vertebrae of the spine. The discs have a though outer layer made of cartilage, with a gelatinous soft centre that acts as a shock absorber. If the outer layer of the disc becomes weak through wear and tear, age or injury, the gelatinous soft centre can bulge out this is known as a herniated or ruptured disc,
Should any of the 5 pairs of nerve roots that form the beginning of the sciatic nerve are compressed in the spine by a ruptured disc it can lead to pain down the sciatic nerve. However, not only does a herniated disc press on the nerve root, but fluid leaking from the gelatinous soft centre of the disc will irritate the nerve root, resulting inflammation.
Cold laser also known as low level laser therapy/treatment
The lasers used at Central Chiropractic Clinic are certified as Cold Laser. For the past 30 years the technology of Cold Laser Therapy (also known as Low Level Laser Therapy) has been formally accepted in North America and in many other parts of the world such as Europe, Russia and Japan. In all this time there have been no recorded long-term adverse effects from low level laser therapy. It is considered to be non-invasive, painless and safe.
Cold Laser Therapy uses laser light energy to stimulate cells to function optimally. In the body, light sensitive chromophores and other elements within the cell absorb energy, initiating a series of important photochemical changes such as increased production of ATP. The mitochondria and Kreb’s Cycle stimulation initiates the production of ATP, providing the cell with the extra energy needed to accelerate the healing process and positively influence pain. These activities can occur in all types of cells and includes ligament, nerves, cartilage and muscle.
Cold or Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) is a Handheld, non-invasive, light-emitting medical device which is used over different areas of the body. It provides an unmatched advantage in the treatment of conditions such as;
Herniated or Bulging Disc.
Upper and Lower Back Pain, Piriformis Syndrome, Slipped disc, Prolapsed disc,
