Lower Back Herniated Disc

Lower Back Herniated Disc

 

 

 

 

When dealing with a posteriorly herniated lumbar spine disc, one initial treatment that may be beneficial is extending the trunk, either in the standing or prone position (Cobra Stretch).  The idea is that extending backward will force the herniated nucleus material of the intervertebral disc forward within the disc and pressure will be removed from the spinal nerves.  This usually centralizes your symptoms, relieving any neurological pain/symptoms in either leg.
