Why can physiotherapy treat lumbar disc herniation

Physical therapy can treat lumbar disc herniation because it relieves muscle spasms, reduces intradiscal pressure, promotes blood circulation, etc. The specific analysis is as follows:

1. Relieve muscle spasms

Lumbar disc herniation patients can improve the condition through physical therapy, which helps to relieve lumbar muscle spasms, thus speeding up physical rehabilitation.

2. Reduce intradiscal pressure

If lumbar disc herniation patients are seriously ill, physical therapy can reduce intradiscal pressure, thus reducing the risk of inflammatory reaction caused by nerve roots.

3. Promote blood circulation

Patients can promote blood circulation in the affected area through physical therapy, so that the surrounding muscles relax, improve the condition, and speed up physical rehabilitation.
