DO YOU HAVE DEGENERATIVE DISC DISEASE?
You may have heard the term “degenerative disc disease,” but what does it actually mean?
Your spinal discs act as shock absorbers between the bones of your spine. Over time, discs can lose hydration and begin to break down. Factors such as aging, accumulated trauma, and lifestyle habits may contribute to these changes.
As discs weaken, they can become more susceptible to:
• Disc bulges
• Herniated discs
This often results in spinal stenosis, neck or back pain, and pain that radiates into the arms or legs.
Dr. Matthew K. Mortensen at Lake Mead Chiropractic in Las Vegas, Nevada provides non-surgical spinal decompression as a treatment option for patients with degenerative disc conditions, including bulging and herniated discs.
Spinal decompression is a gentle, non-surgical approach designed to rehydrate and revitalize the spinal discs.

What do a spinal disc and a jelly donut have in common? 🍩
They both have a soft center that can ooze out under pressure.
When the disc bulges or herniates, the soft center pushes outward—just like when you press down on a jelly donut. If the bulge or herniation influences a nearby nerve, it can cause back pain, numbness, tingling, weakness, or sciatica.
But, unlike the leaking jelly donut, the bulging or herniated spinal disc can be repaired. That’s where non-surgical spinal decompression comes in. Call Dr. Matthew K. Mortensen, DC at Lake Mead Chiropractic in Las Vegas, Nevada today to schedule your Rapid Back Pain Relief consultation.
