In the early stages of a herniated disk, your condition can likely be helped by chiropractic care. Chiropractors use a safe, gentle and effective form of noninvasive care called spinal manipulation. If you are a candidate for spinal manipulation, treatment usually can begin immediately.
Factors that increase your risk of a herniated disk may include: Weight. Excess body weight causes extra stress on the disks in your lower back. Occupation. People with physically demanding jobs have a greater risk of back problems. Repetitive lifting, pulling, pushing, bending sideways and twisting also may increase your risk of a herniated disk.
