What is a disc prolapse?
A prolapse is when the inner disc material pushes through the outer wall, sometimes contacting a nerve. Many prolapses are painless — imaging alone doesn't diagnose your pain.
Osteopathic care
We calm the surrounding tissue, restore mobility above and below, coach position and load, and guide a progressive rehab plan. Red flags are screened and referred appropriately. Osteopath Mitcham — hands-on osteopathy at Lifestyle Essentials, 503 Whitehorse Road, Mitcham.
