Neck & Back Pain Specialists >> Conditions >> Disc Degeneration

Disc degeneration disease (DDD) is prevalent among aging adults. But some of our patients here at Neck & Back Pain Specialists clinic in Fountain Valley, CA, are young adults complaining of disc degeneration symptoms because of auto injuries or work injuries.

Dr. Balta is one of the chiropractic experts in Orange County who provides natural treatment for DDD. With over 30 years of experience in this field, Dr. Balta has successfully treated over 10,000 patients throughout OC, including Huntington Beach, Westminster, and Garden Grove.

What are the Symptoms of Disc Degeneration?

The symptoms of disc degeneration disease can vary depending on the source of the injury. Disc degeneration affects the cervical spine and lumbar region. Most of our patients come to our chiropractic clinic complaining of sharp or constant pain in their back and neck. Other symptoms will include:

Your pain feels worse when sitting. But it gets better when you start walking or moving.
Then, when you bend or lift an object, the pain comes back.
It only gets better when you change your position or lie down.

What are the Treatments Available for Disc Degeneration by Our Chiropractor in Fountain Valley, CA?

When you visit your medical doctor for those symptoms mentioned above, you may be advised to undergo surgery or take medicines. But this is not the case with Dr. Balta. Instead, he’ll recommend a holistic approach. He’ll identify the root cause of your degenerative disc disease by carefully and thoroughly evaluating your overall condition. From there, he can recommend the following options:

Spinal decompression
Joint mobilization
Soft tissue therapy
Therapeutic exercise

Your treatment plan may involve one or some of the above options. During your first visit, Dr. Balta will examine your condition before providing treatment care.
