Cymatics therapy doesn't work for everyone. In my experience, the common causes of musculoskeletal back problems (including a prolapsed disks) can be kept at bay with gradual exercise as Stacy said. Following an exercise routine does seem to help. Whilst I wouldn't advise traditional medication,[url] liquid medicine[/url] as an alternative can ease the pain for many patients.
RE: Low Back Problems & Prolapsed Disks.
such a brilliant thread. so many people undergo back surgery because it is the only option given by most doctors. the truth is yoga, and other alternatives can assist greatly. why is it the NHS dont employ us yoga therapist. so many would benefit and i am fed up with sending letters to them to ask if i can work with them. one day they will see the light and stop endless suffering.
ps how do you get the pretty pictures under your name!

Where I live, which used to be Sheltered Housing, but is so no longer since funding was cut for a Warden, we are fortunate in that the daughter of a lady who lives here, is a Professional Yoga Teacher. She comes and takes a Yoga class here once a week.
All of us are over 60, 70,80,90.
It's been running now for over 2 years and we feel great benefit from it. Especially those with back problems. The oldest attendee, whose been attending since Class 1 is 98 years young!
Age is only a word after all!!
For age is opportunity no less
Than youth itself, though in another dress,
And as the evening twilight fades away
The sky is filled with stars, invisible by day.

Hello Ali x, you could also try a belt that has magnets front and back. I have one and it helps me. I have also built up my core muscles by swimming. I know for some that is too painful but it helps to support the spine and hold it in line. You could also try Acupuncture as this also helps but make sure your Practitioner has at least three years training.

1) Did anybody else have a list and did it resolve after surgery?
2) Would surgery resolve the list? Does anyone know?
Hiya Hopehasgone!
I'm sorry, but I didn't spot this post when I came back!!
Because of my L4/5 & L5/S1 disc herniations, foraminal osteophytes and spinious process osteophytes, I too suffered with a leg list! Mine was on the right side and the effects of my symptoms actually shortened my leg by about quarter of an inch!
This shortening was caused by the effects of cramping and spasming of my muscles in the back of my leg and my right buttocks. Over the years, I made that worse myself, by trying to protect the leg from more pain by adopting a very leaning gate!
A large amount of this limping issue has been eradicated by my last TELFD.
It early days yet, and I'm not counting my chickens, but things are better!The issue of the MRI scans not showing any nerve contact and Spine Surgeons supporting that report, is a 'hot button' issue for me Hopehasgone! 6 Consultant Surgeons insisted that there was no contact between any of my L4/5 & L5/S1 levels and refused me treatment!
It took me 5 years, £15,000 and a visit to the 'London Upright MRI clinic' to prove that they were all wrong and there was contact. It only showed up when I underwent an MRI scan whilst standing in the the most painful position I could tolerate, in the clinics dynamic MRI scanner for 45 minutes.
I was always in pain when I stood upright and extended, not when was sat or laying on my back! None of the Medics understood the effects of gravity and loading on a my spinal discs and how they become compressed under loading when standing!
This is school grade physics, They are supposed to know this stuff!!! AAAAAAAGH!!!!!
Speak soon Hopehasgone!
Best wishes

Well done,
I once went with a Patient (I am an Acupuncturist) to a 'Specialist' (I went with her because she was elderly and was very nervous) Her head was pulling to one side. He said she had Scoliosis. I disagreed and finally we got a second opinion and that person said it is Torticolis. Her neck was being pulled to one side due to scar tissue after her breast cancer operation. The first 'specialist had not fully read her notes! Sometimes you need 'school grade Physics'!

Sometimes the professionals just need a good kick up the B#m! They don't view patients holistically or wholly, one for each part or condition can get ridiculous.
Hi, my blog have something about low back, you can check it.
The very first post on this forum (Anahata) was pretty good advice. An Australian study recently found no correlation between MRI/X-ray findings of disk or spinal degeneration and pain in a ramdom sample of the population.
I practice Craniosacral Therapy, and find :

Hi Cassie - I appreciate your interest. However, despite the fact that this lady is no longer alive (so I felt it was OK to share a small amount of detail), patient details are confidential.
I wasn't after patient details, lol, I was asking because I have never come across anyone that has had 8 vertebrae fused! I would have thought that as you appeared to be discussing clinical ways forward you might say which they were was it neck and lumbar or was it a tranche? I have always been told it is impossible.
I've only ever just had sports massage for my sore back but people have told me chiropractors can often do more harm than good. Not sure what to believe
