Why Disc Health Matters
Spinal discs are the cushions between your vertebrae. They absorb shock, allow movement and give the nerves room to exit the spine. When a disc bulges or herniates, it can press on nearby nerves and cause pain, numbness or weakness in the back, neck, arms or legs.
Many disc injuries build up over time through posture, repetitive strain and poor lifting habits. This workshop explains the warning signs, the everyday habits that protect your discs, and what a healthy recovery can look like.
