Back-Neck Massage

A slipped disc, also known as a herniated disc, is mainly caused by age-related wear and tear of the spine, but can also be caused by an injury.

To assess whether a back and neck massage or a traditional Thai massage (yoga style) can be of benefit, there are the following points of reference:

1. If you are receiving medical treatment, ask your doctor whether a massage is recommended and what precautions should be taken.
2. If you have had an accident, always go to your doctor first and have it checked to see if your spine has been damaged.
3. Also seek medical attention if you have a serious incident. Indications for this are:
   - very severe back pain, pulling, burning
   - numbness, tingling in arms and hands
   - reflex disorders
   - dizziness, coordination disorders
   - signs of paralysis
   - loss of control over bowel or bladder function (emergency!)
4. However, up to 80% of cases are not acute and can be treated by us. Please let us know in which region your problem area is located and which movements cause pain. This allows us to adapt the massage therapy accordingly.
   
   Important: we can release muscle tension and thus relieve pain. We cannot cure a slipped disc, but we can provide good support with a back and neck massage.
   
   It makes sense to visit us 2-3 times at intervals of one week. Most incidents heal themselves over a few weeks. Make sure you avoid poor posture, heavy weights and awkward movements.
