Private health massage cairns – Back Pain and Slipped disc – sore lower back massage cairns

Remedial massage, dry needling and acupuncture may help significantly with slipped discs, back pain and sciatica.

What is a slipped disc and why does it hurt? Between the bodies of each two vertebrae lies a disc, except at the joint between the skull and the uppermost cervical vertebra, and the one below. There are thus twenty-four vertebrae and twenty-three discs.

The upper and lower surfaces of each vertebral body are covered by a thin shiny coating of gristle, exactly like that seen when a joint is opened while carving meat. Attached all the way round the edges, and to this layer of cartilage, it the disc. It consists of a wide rim of cartilage surrounding a soft water-absorbent nucleus. The lamellae of cartilage are strong and arranged like the layers of an onion with the fibres crossing at right angles for added strength. The nucleus distributes pressure hydrostatically – that is, equally in all directions – thus enabling the joint to bear considerable weight. But sooner or later cracks form and since cartilage is a bloodless tissue, cannot heal. As long as the disc is intact, it cannot shift. Once it has cracked the loose fragment is free to move. sore lower back massage cairns.
