Hay remi didnt know if you had seen the illinois back institute on youtube. If you search their area for LPGA there is a womans professional golfer who went thru treatment for herniated disc. In the video you will see her on a decompression table pushing a ball. From my research this pushing of the ball during a decompression of 30% of body weight helps suck in the disc over time approx at least 36 treatments or more depending on herniation size. Each table session is only 10 to 12 min. The table is the main factor it also vibrates to relax muscles. The treadmill harness shown simply helps reduce pain and help hydrate the disc. the pushing of the ball arches the back similar to a mckenzie stretch but unloaded. This causes more of a suction at the front of the spine therefore sucking in what ever is in the back. The traction is about 45 sec on 15 sec off and ball push is about 7 sec push time then rest then push again 7 sec. The pushes are done during the 45 sec decompression. They usually do a regular decompression setting in a chair too. Then they stretch after ward .
- JG Yes, I've seen a video or 2 from the before per prior suggestions from other viewers, but I'll admit I haven't dived into what they do or their philosophy when it comes to low back pain. Everything that I follow is primarily based on my personal experience, the research that I've seen and Dr. Stuart McGill's methods. However, I did check that video out of the LPGA golfer and I'm glad to see that she's doing good now. " From my research, this pushing of the ball during a decompression of 30% of body weight helps suck in the disc over time approx at least 36 treatments or more depending on herniation size" Per 36 treatments, this is a lot according to some of the folks I heard speak at ACSM last year in Boston. When I was there, they were very critical of a physical therapist who performed 20 treatments using a similar device on a disc pathology patient )who got better over the 6 months of treatment and 20 sessions). Also, I should add McGill only sees patients/clients 'once' for a 3-hour session. Knowing this really puts things into perspective considering McGill has such a high success rate and is one if not the leading expert in lower back pain in the world. What I Learned at #ACSM2016 Disc Bulge, Disc Herniation and DDD ruclips.net/video/FKbV1KWofhU/видео.html Anyways, as for the illinois back institute, I think they do some pretty good things, but they just aren't someone I really follow for lower back pain education. And that's not a knock on them or anything, but it's just McGill's work has really resonated with me since I stumbled upon his work about 4 years ago.
I’ve been healing from herniated disc for over a year. Every time I feel like I’m healed and try to play basketball again after 5-6 months, I pull my back again. What do you recommend I do?
- Ryan Glad to hear you're finding them interesting Ryan! Ya, I'll consider doing other sports for future video's. I've seen NFL and MLB stats as well, which are pretty similar I'll say, but for future video's maybe I'll cover those too.
Hi Remi, im on my 3rd week suffering from herniated disc, ive got a control on my lower body but i feel weak, and i had thia weird feeling with may left leg, is this a permanent damage or it can be healed by it self ? Thank you.
- Michael Sounds like your making some progress. I'd just work on addressing that weakness and continue to avoid pain-triggers. As for permanent damage, that's not something I can really give thought to without knowing more about your back pain and what's going on.
- Suhail All athletes can return. It's just a matter of developing the right training and spine sparing strategies to return. I'll look into sprinting though :)
Hey bro after how many time I can go back to lifting can I do squats dead lift running again plz reply bro how much months shud I wait to go back to gym fully
- Shivam Okay, hard for me to specifically say since every case is different and everyone returns at certain rates. Some people are fine within a few weeks, months, or maybe years. And some people have disc issues without any pain and can squat/run without issues. It's really complex topic and there isn't really a perfect answer for a timeline. The best advice I could give you is to just listen to your body and build up to that point where you can squat/run again. Obviously, there are a lot of factors that will contribute to this such as maintaining good spine hygiene, improving movement patterns, posture, core stability etc.
@@RemiSovran I guess more NBA players went under surgery because alot of money was imvested in them and need them to return to court as soon as possible. And for the rest of us ordinary people its better to avoid surgery unless is a serious complication
Hello remi, I also suffered from same disc herniation 1 and half year ago but now it's recovering day by day I feel better , but my eyes muscles are very weak it make me double visiin and eye floaters ,and this eye problem starts 2years ago when I used to do gym , so can you help me out for eyes problem ???
Hi Deep, Eyes are not really my area of knowledge Deep and I'd suggest seeking out someone who is more specialized in this realm as I have very little understanding of the function/physiology of the eyes in detail
- Deep I wish I had good resources to help you out, but I've never bothered to look up the eye and I'm not 100% sure who the experts are. I'm sure if you did a google search or youtube search you may get an idea....
Hello sir, Iam suffering from L4 L5 disc bulge it's been 2 years now, iam improving too too too too slowly, is it Possible for me play football again? pls reply 🙏🙏
Not sure if you've heard of him or not but there was a professional wrestler in the 90's by the name of Shawn Michaels who had herniated two discs in his lower back after sustaining a bad fall to the outside of the ring. He wrestled the rest of the year but he had to be loaded on painkillers until Wrestlemania where he finished his 90s career had two level fusion and returned to wrestling years later. His story is interestingly very real for a sport that has had a rep for being fake.
- Ryan Ya, I know who Shawn and I'll be honest I had never heard of that story. That is pretty amazing for him to come back. I remember him being out of the sport for a while, but now I probably have an idea why he was out for such as a long time.
- Bob I think in hockey, you get more disc related issues, but basketball you get more stress fracture related issues (hyperextension of the low back when jumping up and someone bumping you). However, with that being said, disc issues are common in the NBA too. I'm not sure if one sport is harder on the low back then the other. Both have very significant low back demands. However, I'd argue it may be easier to return to basketball after herniated disc then it is too hockey.
For sure, mma athlete's, a lot of them I find tend to develop disc issues. Most of that revolves around the demands of grappling on the floor and assuming a lot of flexion based positions, as well as poor training strategies (which is a common theme among all sports).
- Zechariah Ya, that could do it or at least be the nail on the coffin in some cases, unfortunately. MMA is a difficult sport in the sense that a lot of the movements that happen are unpredictable and unusual at times, which could lead to injury.

When you push the ball you must tighten stomach muscles during push. Vibration i believe is 20 hz.
I’ve been healing from herniated disc for over a year. Every time I feel like I’m healed and try to play basketball again after 5-6 months, I pull my back again. What do you recommend I do?
- Mandala
I'd recommend getting an assessment done from a McGill practitioner.
I'm finding these statistic videos very interesting. Perhaps do other sports as well?
- Ryan

Great analysis and topic!

Pls speak on the return of track athletes specially sprinters
Can they return again to sprinrinfo
- Suhail
All athletes can return. It's just a matter of developing the right training and spine sparing strategies to return. I'll look into sprinting though :)
Remi Sovran
God bless you in all your efforts bro
Hey bro after how many time I can go back to lifting can I do squats dead lift running again plz reply bro how much months shud I wait to go back to gym fully
Hey Shivam,
Not sure what you're dealing with that is preventing you from running or squatting, so I can't really comment much
Remi Sovran sry forgot to mention above I'm suffering from l4 l5 s1 slip disc buddy hope u reply thanks in advance sufferings from last seven months

So were there more NBA players returning after disc herniation who went under conservative treatment or those who went under surgery?
No difference between the groups :)
@@RemiSovran I guess more NBA players went under surgery because alot of money was imvested in them and need them to return to court as soon as possible. And for the rest of us ordinary people its better to avoid surgery unless is a serious complication
@@nsulejma To some degree, that's true. But it depends if surgery is required or not...
Hello, can i play basketball bevor, if its healed out ? Thx😊
Yeah, one can return to basketball if manage correctly.
Do you recommend surgery (microdiscectomy, or laminotomy) or physiotherapy
- rj
Going off of Dr. McGill's suggestions, conservative treatment before ever considering surgery :)
S1-L5 L4-L5 mild disc bulge at 19 years of age can I come back to professional soccer
I can't say for certain. I would advise booking an assessment with a McGIll Method Provider or clinician.

Hi Deep,
Eyes are not really my area of knowledge Deep and I'd suggest seeking out someone who is more specialized in this realm as I have very little understanding of the function/physiology of the eyes in detail
OK , can you suggest someone over Internet who can help me !

I wish I had good resources to help you out, but I've never bothered to look up the eye and I'm not 100% sure who the experts are. I'm sure if you did a google search or youtube search you may get an idea....
Also. What about reherniating on court?
- zach
No stats for on court.
Sir I am Suffering from herniated disc slip from 1 month My doctor advised me to have bedrest For atleast 1 month Can you help me. I am 17

@@RemiSovran how.? Pls help me
Please find one that talks about the armed forces specifically combat arms jobs and special operations
Yes, this would be a good one and I'll try to find stats on this.

What code do you think is harder on the lower back, NHL or NBA?
- Bob
I think in hockey, you get more disc related issues, but basketball you get more stress fracture related issues (hyperextension of the low back when jumping up and someone bumping you).

For sure, mma athlete's, a lot of them I find tend to develop disc issues. Most of that revolves around the demands of grappling on the floor and assuming a lot of flexion based positions, as well as poor training strategies (which is a common theme among all sports).
Remi Sovran yes, looking back grappling being stacked by a bigger guy crushed my spine. Literally on my back with my knee touching my forehead

Ya, that could do it or at least be the nail on the coffin in some cases, unfortunately. MMA is a difficult sport in the sense that a lot of the movements that happen are unpredictable and unusual at times, which could lead to injury.
