Description

How do you actually treat a herniated disc?


In this episode, we break down:

  • What is a herniated disc (in real-world terms)
  • What directional preference means — and why it matters for recovery
  • What actually helps heal herniated discs (backed by research)
  • What doesn’t help — even if it sounds good
  • How long disc herniations really take to heal
  • The truth about using inversion tables and TENS units for back pain


You’ll hear personal stories, research-backed guidance, and our take on how to avoid wasting time on flashy treatments that don’t move the needle. If you or someone you know is struggling with a herniated disc, this episode will give you clarity, confidence, and practical steps to move forward.
