The two most important things you need to know about bulging or herniated discs are:
Disc bulges are surprisingly common. More than one third of the adult population will have an asymptomatic disc bulge at any given time 1.
That is, for every 10 adults you see at least three to four of them have a disc bulge that they likely do not know about because they have no associated pain or discomfort.
… and that’s what makes disc bulges a confusing topic for most! A bulging or herniated disc is not always the underlying cause of pain.
The good news inside that fact is that if you have a disc bulge and somewhere along the pathway you’ve been lead to believe that it is the cause of your pain and that it cannot heal or won’t ever fully improve… you might have a brighter outlook to see.
There are four main types of disc bulge, ranging from minimal to severe:
Bizarrely, the worse the bulge, the better it heals! i.e. a sequestration will heal more than a bulge will.
Careful chiropractic adjustments provided by skilled and experienced chiropractors can be a very effective method for reducing the pain and dysfunction associated with disc bulges and herniations. Restoring full and proper motion to the spinal joints at the level of the injured disc, as well as above and below, is critical for complete healing and rehabilitation.
Our thorough assessment protocols aim to identify the exact cause of your pain, what role a potential disc bulge is playing and identify whether our signature care is appropriate for you. We utilise unique functional X-rays – where clinically indicated – allowing us to immediately look deeper and uncover the underlying cause of your pain or problem.
The information we gather at your initial consultation allows us to select the most effective technique, ensuring we are delivering gentle, accurate and results-driven chiropractic care that is tailored to your specific needs.

Schedule a time to consult with one of our extensively trained chiropractors and experience our incredibly refined and thorough neurostructural assessment. You’ll have the opportunity to speak with one of our friendly team members before you visit us, to ask any questions and ensure you’re fully informed as we get started with helping you and/or your family.
At your Initial Consultation we’ll take a deep dive into your health history, asking questions you’ve probably never been asked before as we seek to uncover the root cause, so that you will not only feel truly seen and heard, we’ll begin to find helpful answers. Our INSiGHT Scanning technology applies three unique scans which allow us to find and measure specific areas of imbalance and dysfunction within your nervous system. These state-of-the-art scans are a vital piece of the puzzle in achieving extraordinary results, and they are non-invasive and safe for all ages, from infants to elderly. We also have digital X-ray facilities onsite and available whenever clinically necessary.
Following your Initial Consultation, we’ll schedule a Report of Findings. At this appointment your chiropractor will provide a detailed explanation of your INSiGHT Scan findings and the results of any other images or tests, and help you to connect the dots from your history so that you ultimately understand why things are the way they are. We’ll present you with a tailored care plan that is designed to help you achieve the outcomes you desire, based upon the results of your initial assessment. At this point we’ll clearly explain all of the necessary details of what you need to do to get better, how long it will take and what it will cost. Within this conversation we are committed to finding a pathway forward that not only suits your healthcare needs, but your budget and calendar availability as well.
