Conditions

Every spinal condition we correct — and exactly how.

Each page below sets out the symptoms, the mechanism, how we confirm the diagnosis, the phase-by-phase treatment protocol with realistic timelines, the technologies used, and the red flags that mean you should see a surgeon instead.

Lumbar

Herniated Disc (Slipped Disc)

Also called: Slipped disc, Disc prolapse, Extruded disc, L4-L5 / L5-S1 herniation

The most common cause of severe, radiating back and leg pain in desk-based adults. Between 80–90% of herniations resolve without surgery when intradiscal pressure is reduced early and the supporting spine is rebuilt.

Treatment protocol

Bulging Disc

Also called: Disc protrusion, Diffuse disc bulge, Annular bulge

The stage before a herniation. Catch it here and you avoid the far harder problem later — decompression plus posture correction can restore disc height rather than merely masking pain.

Treatment protocol

Sciatica

Also called: Lumbar radiculopathy, Nerve root pain, Leg pain from the back

Sciatica is a symptom, not a diagnosis. The entire clinical value lies in identifying which structure is compressing the nerve — and treating that, not the leg.

Treatment protocol

Spinal Stenosis

Also called: Lumbar canal stenosis, Foraminal narrowing, Neurogenic claudication

Stenosis is a space problem. We cannot remove bone, but we can create space by restoring segmental motion, decompressing the disc and reducing the soft-tissue and inflammatory contribution — which is often the difference between 100 metres and 2 kilometres of walking.

Treatment protocol

Spondylolisthesis

Also called: Vertebral slip, Listhesis, Pars defect, Spondylolysis

The one spinal condition where stability, not mobility, is the priority. Treatment must be prescribed by a clinician who knows exactly what not to do.

Treatment protocol

Chronic Lower Back Pain

Also called: Non-specific low back pain, Lumbago, Recurrent back pain

Chronic back pain is rarely one thing. Our value is diagnostic precision — finding which of the four or five candidate structures is actually driving your pain.

Treatment protocol

Cervical

Pelvis & Sacrum

Whole spine

Not sure which of these is yours?

Bring your MRI or X-ray. You'll leave the first consultation knowing exactly what is wrong, whether decompression is right for you, and how many sessions it should take.
