How Chiropractors Treat Degenerative Disc Disease in the Lower Back

Degenerative disc disease (DDD) is a common cause of chronic lower back pain, resulting from the gradual wear-and-tear of spinal discs. Chiropractors address DDD with a combination of spinal adjustments, decompression therapy, and lifestyle modifications. These treatments alleviate pressure on the affected discs, reduce inflammation, and promote better spinal function. Chiropractic care not only helps manage the symptoms of DDD but also slows its progression by improving overall spinal health.
