Healing from Degenerative Disc Disease: Our 5-Step Method For Naturally Reducing Pain, Increasing Mobility, And Improving Your Quality of Life, Without Pills or Surgery...Even If Doctors Have Said Nothing Else Could Be Done

How Barbara, Aged 60, Fully Recovered from Chronic Back Pain Due to Degenerative Disc Disease, WIthout Pills or Surgery, Even Though Her Doctors Said Nothing Else Could Be Done

Can you relate?

Barbara had been suffering from chronic back pain for well over 15 years.

Her back would “go out” on her every now and then, but it would usually get better after a week of rest and taking things easy.

She’d spent over 20 years working an office job, which required her to “sit a ton”, so dealing with a bit of back pain was something she just “dealt with” since she is the type of person that has a “high pain tolerance”...

But over the past few months, the pain started getting worse.

She noticed her back was “going out” in the past year or so, more frequently than it used to…

and then when it did go out, not only did it take longer for it to get better, the pain intensified to the point where she would be bedridden for several days before she could get up and start moving again.

Over time, EVERYTHING started to hurt. 

However, what worried her the most wasn’t that the pain was getting worse, but it started to significantly decrease her quality of life…

She was getting more worried, scared, and depressed every day about her condition.

At this point, she knew deep down, there could be something very wrong with her back, so she finally went to seek care.

Barbara was smart enough to know that taking pills just “mask” the symptoms, and they are not a good, long-term solution because of how addictive and dangerous they can be.

She also knew surgery wasn’t going to be an option after he’d seen friends and neighbors have back surgery which practically left them crippled, and worse off afterward.

Nothing helped…

At best, some of the things she tried provided temporary relief, but nothing long-term…

And if anything, many of the stretches and exercises she did just made her pain worse…

Barbara was running out of options, and she was seriously starting to consider risking having surgery, since the pain was getting much worse.

However…

Despite all of this, we WERE able to help Barbara…

After her initial consultation, and wIthin the first couple of treatment sessions, her pain reduced significantly…

And pretty soon after, she started to feel more mobile to the point where she was able to stand up straight, get out of bed normally, and do simple house chores

and by the end of just 10 weeks of treatment with us…

She was ABLE to get back to doing small house chores, taking care of the dogs, and even started going on short hikes with her husband…

She was even ABLE to get back to doing work in her yard without help or assistance from anybody…

And most importantly…

She felt like she could be present and active in her family’s life, including her two young granddaughters, WITHOUT the constant nagging pain, or the fear of her back going out at a moment’s notice…

Degenerative disc disease is a condition where the “jelly-donut” like substances between your vertebrae wear out over time…

This causes friction, inflammation, and can even cause painful compression of the nerves coming out of your back.

And yes, it is true, no matter what anyone tells you, that degenerative disc disease currently IS irreversible, and in some extreme cases, the only option IS surgery…

Most people are legitimately concerned when they are diagnosed with something that sounds as serious as “degenerative disc disease”, or “arthritis” or “stenosis” of the spine.

However, we also now know, after decades of research, that even if you have been diagnosed with Degenerative Disc Disease, that you are NOT doomed to a life of pain or disability.

Studies have shown, upon examination of thousands of people over the age of 50 who were either suffering from back pain or not suffering from back pain.

What they found was that it was VERY COMMON to see someone above the age of 50 who upon x-ray findings showed signs of degenerative disc disease, yet had NO pain or symptoms associated with it.

This means that there are millions of people walking around each day with degenerative disc disease in their spine yet have no pain and can live completely normal lives.

What you should ALSO know is that there is a significant rise in back pain in people UNDER the age of 45, yet these people, upon x-ray and MRI show NO signs of degenerative disc disease.

This also means that there must be other causes that are responsible for your pain OTHER than Degenerative Disc Disease…and that it COULD ALSO BE POSSIBLE that these other parts of your body CAN actually heal and recover.

And what we found, for Barbara, and for many others who suffer from degenerative disc disease, that it is possible to not only reduce your pain, but help you significantly improve your mobility, and your quality of life, by healing and restoring the health of your soft tissues.

What do I mean by soft tissues?

What most doctors fail to tell their patients is that there are not only are there bones, and vertebrae in your spine, there is also a vast collection of soft tissues that provide support for your spine.

These soft tissues include:

and unlike the bones and vertebrae (which cannot change, or heal), the good news is, these soft tissues DO have the ability to heal, and regenerate!

And by performing the proper treatment and therapy for these soft tissues, it IS possible to reduce your pain, and improve your mobility, even if you’ve been diagnosed with degenerative disc disease.

We’ve been fortunate enough to have worked with many people who are suffering from chronic back pain and significantly improve their quality of life, despite their condition.

And the most important lesson that we have learned over the years, looking back at ALL of the people we were able to help, and that the one big takeaway is this…

The MOST COMMON MISTAKE that people make is thinking that you can fix, or reverse this pain with a quick fix, or overnight solution…

all might feel good temporarily…but rarely do these treatments offer long-term sustained relief over time.

However, what makes our clinic unique, and the reason why we have been able to help people like Barbara, even when all else has failed…

Is that our clinic is NOT committed to just looking for “quick” overnight fixes…

Instead, our clinic is committed to helping you on a journey of healing, which is based on our comprehensive, 5-step process to healing.

Our process of healing is not for everybody, since it DOES require patience, hard work, and for you to take an active role in your recovery.

Then you can stop reading right now, we are not the right clinic for you…

Balance and Body Restorations 5-Step Process to Healing chronic back pain due to Degenerative Disc Disease

One of the most frustrating things that we hear all the time is how little time doctors spend with their patients today.

Often times we hear how:

Because of the this, doctors often rush to “one size fits all” treatments for ALL of their patients.

The truth is, while it IS possible to fix to chronic back pain due to degenerative disc disease…

We also understand that everybody is different, and that everyone will need a unique treatment plan that suits their needs and their situation…

We know that everyone that walks into our clinic come in have different:

and that everyone also has different:

And in order to give you the best possible chance at healing and recovering from your pain, we need to take time to understand you, and your situation better.

We know that not every single person wants to do ‘crazy things’ like run marathons or lift heavy weights…

In fact, most of our patients just want to be able to do normal, simple things around the house, in the yard, or be able to play with and take care of their kids and grandkids.

Which is why our first step is to simply get to know you better…

First, so we can make sure that we are a good fit for each other…

and second, to ensure that we can even help you in the first place!

It starts with just filling out this webform, tell us more about your condition, and what you hope to achieve from therapy, and from there, we can start with an honest conversation about your health.

Another common, but CRITICAL mistake that most people (doctors and therapists included) make when treating degenerative disc disease is focusing only on relieving “symptoms” of back pain, and not understanding the underlying “root causes” of the pain.

All might temporarily feel good, but rarely do they create long-term relief…

and in some cases, can make the problem WAY worse.

Why is this?

What most practitioners fail to understand about the body is that everything is “interconnected”.

Because for people with chronic lower back pain, what you need to understand is that the lower back is already in pain, inflamed, and over-stressed…

And doing things like exercise, stretching, and even massage only puts MORE stress on an area of your body that is already over-stressed.

Instead, step two of our 5-step process focuses less on rushing right into treating “symptoms”...

But rather taking a step back and taking a “big picture” approach.

You see, IT IS VERY COMMON to find, that the underlying reason why your back is hurting in the first place, is NOT because it is just “old and degenerated”

But rather it is hurting because it is under too much stress…

Or because it is doing “too much work” because there are other parts of your body that are not “doing their job”.

The tricky thing is, these other areas are often overlooked because they might not actually “hurt”.

But instead, these areas might be tight, stiff, or weak, which causes your lower back to have to “compensate” for these other “problem areas”.

Common examples of this might include:

The good news is, once we are able to identify these problem areas, and provide the appropriate treatment, it is very common to see relief of your symptoms within just a couple of sessions!

How we are able to identify these “problem areas” ?

Through our “Full Body Movement Assessment”

For each one of our patients, we provide a “Body Assessment”, which includes a basic test very simple movements that are involved in everyday tasks, but we will be able to carefully analyze, from head to toe, which parts of your body are working correctly, or are not working correctly.

From there we will then create a treatment plan to target these non-painful, but problematic parts of your body…

Which will remove stress, tension, and inflammation OFF of your spine and bring very quick and rapid reduction of pain and symptoms.

We offer this Full Body Movement Assessment as part of our initial Discovery Visit, which you can apply for below

Some of the most frustrating things we hear from our patients is when they tell us that they have tried physical therapy before, but it didn’t work, or made things worse…

Some of the common frustrations we hear are:

While we absolutely believe in treatments like exercise…

We also know, that if you are in pain, if your body feels stiff, or if your body isn’t moving “correctly”, then exercise will just make the underlying issue worse.

However, what sets our clinic apart our understanding that BEFORE you start exercising, we first want to reduce, or get rid of your pain, so that you can actually tolerate exercise without pain!

How are we able to do this?

Through our advanced training in a special “hands-on” therapy approach known as “manual therapy”.

What is manual therapy?

Manual therapy is a type of “hands-on” therapy where our therapists use their hands, or tools to provide treatment on the injured areas of your body.

Think of it like a “medical massage” where our Doctorate-level trained therapists can quickly identify areas of your body that are stiff, or immobile, and use our treatments to rapidly “fix” those areas.

Examples of some of these “Manual Therapy” techniques we commonly use are:

No, it’s not like “chiropractic”

While we have nothing against the use of chiropractic care for some conditions, this type of treatment is a much “gentler” and “progressive” approach.

While you may expect to experience a “little bit” of pain and soreness from the treatment, it should come in the form of a “good type” of pain that you know is subconsciously doing something positive.

Most of our patients know they should be doing SOME form of exercise to help their back pain, but are hesitant or worried to do so…

The main reasons being:

The truth is, in order to make any long term progress, and have ANY chance of becoming more active with degenerative disc disease, your back, and your muscles MUST become stronger.

However, step 4 of our program is to help guide you through this phase in the safest, simplest, and most effective ways possible.

This is why we have developed a system of strengthening that focuses on a concept known as “Neural Strengthening.”

What is “neural strengthening?

Neural strengthening is a type of exercise that focuses less on building big, bulkly muscles…

Instead, neural strengthening focuses more on re-building the connections between your mind and your body.

What most people need to understand about chronic back pain is that not only do our muscles become weak, but the pain alters how our bodies are “supposed” to move.

This can create “bad movement habits” that can cause stress and strain to develop in other areas of your body, and over time, make your condition worse.

Our goal with “Neural strengthening” is to “re-wire” these connections and help you build better “connectivity” between your mind and your body.

The best part about this method of exercising is that:

Instead, neural strengthening focuses on:

With our exercise program, we will ensure to meet you at your level, we will go at YOUR pace to make sure you feel safe and confident with your exercise…

We will also ensure that you will understand how to exercise with the correct form so that you can feel confident and safe with your exercise program

It is very likely after the first 3-4 weeks, following steps 1-4, that you will feel a significant reduction in your pain, you will notice that your mobility is improved, and you might actually start to feel stronger, and more confident with your movement.

But we also want to make that your body STAYS this way, and continues to progress over time.

The truth is, it doesn’t just take “time” for permanent changes to occur in your body…

It takes doing the right thing, consistently, over a LONG period of time for your body to truly make the permanent physiological changes that are necessary needs to in order to have permanent relief, and become more physically active.

Our goal is to help you at every stage of your recovery to help you achieve the goals that you want.

And to do this, we will help you through the entire proess of healing, to ensure that you don’t just achieve short term pain relief…

...and if you follow our process of
