What is actually happening when a disc starts to bulge or herniate?
Dr. Genet uses a spine model to show how repeated load on the spine can push disc material toward the outer edge, where it may begin irritating nearby nerves.
The goal of non-surgical spinal decompression is to reduce pressure on the affected area and help centralize that disc material rather than continuing to load it outward.
It’s not just about where it hurts. It’s about understanding what’s happening mechanically inside the spine.
