Slip Disc Physiotherapy in Indirapuram

Slip disc physiotherapy treats a bulging or herniated spinal disc that is causing back or neck pain, often with pain, tingling or numbness in a leg or arm. Most disc problems recover without surgery.

People with a diagnosed disc bulge or herniation, sciatica or arm pain from a neck disc, and those recovering from disc surgery.

It commonly helps with disc bulge, degenerative disc disease, sciatica physiotherapy, discectomy and cervical spondylosis. It also helps nerve pain caused by the disc pressing on a root.

Less leg or arm pain, better sitting and walking tolerance, and for most people no need for surgery.

Directional exercises that ease symptoms reduce pressure and irritation on the nerve. Pain relief makes movement possible, and core and hip strengthening build long-term support.

We check reflexes, sensation, strength and nerve tension, test which movements centralise or worsen pain, and review scans if you have them.

After a quick check on how you have been since the last visit, the session combines hands-on treatment or electrotherapy where it helps, such as robotic spinal decompression and spinal traction therapy, with guided exercises like mckenzie extension and pelvic tilts. It ends with an updated home programme.

It is usually combined with robotic spinal decompression, spinal traction therapy, interferential therapy (IFT), TENS therapy and manual therapy, depending on your assessment and how you respond.

Common exercises include mckenzie extension, pelvic tilts, bird dog, glute bridge, dead bug and core bracing. They start at a comfortable level and are progressed as you improve.

A session usually takes 45 minutes, covering a progress check, treatment and an update to your home exercises.

Typically 8 to 12 sessions over 6 to 12 weeks. Nerve symptoms settle more slowly than back pain.

Two to three times a week early on, then weekly.

Yes. Most people see a clear reduction in leg or arm pain within the first few weeks.

Yes. Sitting, bending and walking tolerance improve as nerve irritation settles.

Yes. Core, glute and back strength is built gradually once symptoms allow.

Yes for most of the programme. Traction and robotic decompression need clinic equipment. We visit homes across Indirapuram, Vaishali, Vasundhara, Noida and Ghaziabad; see home visit physiotherapy.

Yes. Rehab after microdiscectomy or other disc surgery follows your surgeon's guidance.

Yes. Disc problems are commonest from 30 to 50; older adults more often have stenosis, which is managed differently.

Saddle numbness, bladder or bowel changes, or rapidly worsening weakness need emergency care. Heavy lifting and long sitting are limited early on.

When back or neck pain spreads into a limb, or pins and needles or numbness do not settle within a few days. You can book an assessment at our Indirapuram clinic or ask for a home visit.

A slip disc, more correctly a herniated disc, is when disc material pushes out and irritates a nearby nerve. Discs do not actually slip out of place.

Common causes include disc wear with age, repeated bending and lifting, a sudden strain, long sitting and genetic factors.

Common symptoms include back or neck pain with shooting pain, tingling or numbness into a leg or arm, often worse with sitting or coughing.

Clinical examination of nerve function, with MRI if symptoms are severe or not improving.

Yes. Most herniated discs recover with physiotherapy over 6 to 12 weeks without surgery.

To settle nerve pain, restore movement and sitting tolerance, and build strength to prevent recurrence.

Treatment usually combines exercises such as mckenzie extension, pelvic tilts and bird dog with robotic spinal decompression, spinal traction therapy and interferential therapy (IFT). Hands-on treatment, education and activity advice are added as needed, and the plan changes as you progress.
