Re: Herniated Disc

What kind of symptoms does your fiance have? An MRI is really only the way you can see if in fact he has a herniated disc. I can't really blame the chiropractor as his fees sound reasonable and so does his treatment plan. Typical initial treatment plan for a patient with herniated disc is daily to 3X week for 16 weeks. Then treatment would decrease. Maybe go in for adjustments only that is typically 30-40 a treatment. What all is included in the treatment?

Ankle braces go on fast and the athlete does the applying so there is no waiting in line to be taped. Valuable trainer and coach time is saved when taping is eliminated. In an independent sudy of athletes Swede-O ankle braces were chosen as most comfortable.
