Herniated Disc National City

If you are located in National City and are suffering from the pain of a herniated disc, there may be a solution that you have not yet discovered. Dr. Michael Mountain of the Southern California Spine Center has provided many in the National City area with permanent pain relief.

A herniated disc is a very common problem that can cause severe back pain. It is generally caused by old age but can also be the result of trauma or injury to the spine. When a person ages, the fluids in their spinal discs diminish. Discs can no longer act as spongy "shock absorbers" for vertebrae without this important fluid. The spine loses its flexibility and it becomes susceptible to cracking or breaking. When this occurs, discs can move from their normal location and put pressure on surrounding nerves in the region. This can result in tingling and shooting pains in many different areas of the body. If you are experiencing any of the symptoms listed below, you should consult your doctor.

Dr. Mountain utilizes the DRX9000 to treat the following problems caused by a herniated disc:

- Electric shock-like pain
- Tingling in arms or legs
- Numbness in arms or legs
- Muscle Weakness
- Bowel or bladder problems
- And more

Dr. Mountain and a team of experts at the Southern California Spine Center have helped many people recover from the pain associated with a herniated disc. The Southern California Spine Center takes a radically different approach to pain relief. Rather than medication or surgery, they use state of the art technology like the DRX 9000 spinal decompression machine to stretch the spine. With the use of Spine Force, back muscles are strengthened and patients will feel better almost immediately. Dr. Mountain is a highly qualified clinical director and a medical professional.
