About the Condition

The MRI Sounds Scary β€” The Outlook Is Not

A 'slipped disc' (more accurately, a herniated or bulging disc) sounds frightening β€” but the natural history is overwhelmingly positive. Most discs reduce in size on follow-up MRI within 6–12 months.

Our job is to control your pain, restore function and protect the disc as it heals β€” without rushing to surgery for most patients.

Symptoms typically improve faster than imaging changes. Many patients are nearly pain-free long before any disc 'resolution' on MRI.

Why Patients Choose Us

  • Neurological screen first
  • Pain-easing positions
  • Directional preference exercises
  • Gentle manual therapy as appropriate
  • Progressive loading once safe
  • Long-term protection programme

"L4-L5 herniated disc. Surgeon recommended surgery β€” I tried Juhu Physio first. 12 weeks later, back to gym, back to running, no surgery. Their methodical approach saved me from a procedure I didn't need."

Frequently Asked Questions

Common Questions Answered

Quick answers to questions our Juhu patients ask most often.

Will my MRI still show the disc after treatment?
Yes β€” but pain and function nearly always improve dramatically. Imaging often lags clinical recovery.
Is surgery a last resort?
Yes β€” reserved for cases with severe neurological compromise or no progress after 6–12 weeks of skilled rehab.
Can I lift weights with a slipped disc?
Yes, eventually β€” and graded loading is part of full recovery.
Should I wear a back brace?
Short-term sometimes β€” long-term no. We focus on building your back's own strength.
Will it come back?
Not if you complete rehab and maintain core/hip strength.
Can I run again?
Yes β€” most patients return to running with a graded plan.
