The Science Behind It
How Chiropractic Treats Herniated Disc Treatment
A herniated disc occurs when the soft inner core of a spinal disc pushes through a weakened outer ring and presses on nearby nerves. Chiropractic care uses low-force adjustments and flexion-distraction therapy to gently reposition the vertebrae above and below the damaged disc, reducing the mechanical pressure that pushes disc material into the nerve canal. Non-surgical spinal decompression creates a negative intradiscal pressure that draws the herniated material back toward center and promotes nutrient flow for healing. This conservative approach allows many patients to avoid steroid injections and surgery altogether.

The Sycamore Difference
Why Patients Choose Us
Thorough Diagnostics
We never guess. Every patient receives a comprehensive exam and X-rays when clinically needed before any treatment begins.
Personalized Care
No two patients are the same. Dr. Petersen builds a treatment plan around your specific condition, goals, and lifestyle.
Non-Surgical Approach
Drug-free, hands-on treatment that addresses the root cause of your pain — not just the symptoms.
Dr. Petersen uses advanced imaging and orthopedic testing to classify the severity and location of the herniation — central, lateral, or foraminal. Mild to moderate herniations are treated with a combination of specific lumbar or cervical adjustments, Cox flexion-distraction, and motorized spinal decompression sessions lasting 15 to 20 minutes. Home exercises focused on McKenzie extensions or nerve-flossing techniques support the in-office work. Progress is monitored with periodic re-examinations, and referral for advanced imaging or surgical consultation is made if improvement plateaus.
Affordable Care

For patients without insurance coverage, we offer affordable self-pay rates and flexible payment plans.
