Non-Surgical Herniated Disc Treatment in Troy, MI
Pain that travels into your arm or leg can make it difficult to work, sleep, or enjoy your usual activities.
At Semlow Chiropractic in Troy, we listen to what you’re experiencing, assess your mobility, and help you determine if our conservative, non-surgical care is the right path to get your life back.
Herniated Disc Conditions
and Symptoms We Treat
Herniated and bulging discs cause varying symptoms depending on which spinal nerves are affected. Before your treatment, our teams carefully review your history and concerns before discussing the right care for your needs. We evaluate and treat:
- Herniated & slipped discs
- Bulging discs
- Sciatica & pinched nerves
- Severe lower back or neck pain
- Sharp pain traveling into an arm or leg
- Tingling, “pins and needles,” or numbness in hands or feet
- Difficulty bending, lifting, or transitioning from sitting to standing
These symptoms do not confirm a disc problem on their own. Their location, how they began, and whether they are changing all matter when deciding what to do next.
A Closer Look at Your Care Options
at Semlow Chiropractic.
If you’re looking for a chiropractor for a herniated disc, you may already have a diagnosis or you may be trying to understand why pain travels beyond your back. We offer several advanced, conservative therapies designed to relieve pressure and restore function.
DRX-9000
Spinal Decompression
For many disc patients, we utilize the DRX-9000. This specialized table applies gentle, controlled traction to the spine while you lie comfortably. By creating negative pressure inside the disc, decompression may help retract bulging material and promote the flow of healing nutrients to the injured area.
Targeted Chiropractic Adjustments
When appropriate, precise chiropractic adjustments can help improve restricted joint movement and reduce nerve irritation. Dr. Yanez carefully factors in your symptoms and comfort level; we do not use a "one-size-fits-all" approach, and adjustments are tailored to avoid aggravating disc injuries.
Exercises and Everyday Movement
Healing doesn't stop when you leave our clinic. We guide you through specific corrective exercises (often utilizing Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization principles) and provide strategies for daily activities. Our goal is to strengthen your core, stabilize your spine, and prevent future flare-ups.
Whether you’re considering herniated disc care or bulging disc treatment in Troy, an evaluation helps
determine which options may be appropriate.
Expert Care Led by Dr. Ryan Yanez
Choosing a herniated disc chiropractor starts with understanding how your concerns will be evaluated and how care decisions are made. Dr. Yanez is certified in Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization and trained in Active Release Techniques for the spine and lower extremities. He explains his recommendations so you can make an informed decision about your care.

Frequently Asked Questions
About Herniated Disc Treatment in Troy
Do I need an MRI before my appointment?
An MRI is not automatically required before an initial evaluation. Whether imaging is needed depends on your symptoms, history, and examination findings. If you already have an MRI or a radiologist’s report, please bring it with you.
Can I get an evaluation if another provider diagnosed my disc condition?
Absolutely. Many of our patients come to us seeking a second opinion or a non-surgical alternative after receiving a diagnosis elsewhere. Let us know about any previous testing, injections, or physical therapy when scheduling so we can review your complete file.
How many appointments might I need?
There is no standard number of visits for every disc condition. Recommendations depend on your symptoms, findings, goals, and response to care. Your plan can be adjusted as your progress is reviewed.
Does insurance cover herniated disc treatment?
Coverage depends on your plan and the specific services recommended. Semlow Chiropractic accepts most major insurance plans and can review your benefits, but that does not mean every service, including decompression, is covered. Contact us about payment options before starting care.
