What is a Herniated Disc?
A herniated disc is a condition that results when the outer layer of the spinal disc tears, allowing the inner layer to leak out. This can cause pain, numbness, and tingling in the back and neck. When this happens, the discs can put pressure on the spinal cord or nerves, leading to more serious problems. Herniated discs are a common cause of neck and back pain and can often be treated without surgery.
Causes of a Herniated Disc
A herniated disc can happen for a number of reasons, including:
If you are experiencing pain as a result of a herniated disc, it is important to see a Chiropractor right away. A Chiropractor can help you determine the cause of your injury and provide you with the care you need to get relief.
Symptoms of a Herniated Disc
Most of the time, a herniated disc usually happens in the lower back area. However, they can occur in the neck as well. Common Symptoms of a herniated disc can include:
pain in the back or neck
tingling or numbness in the arms or legs
weakness in the arms or legs
loss of bladder or bowel control
If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, it is important to see a Chiropractor right away. Our chiropractic team in Merrill can help you determine the underlying cause and build a treatment plan to get you back on track to optimal health and pain-free life.
Degenerative Disc Disease
Degenerative disc disease (DDD) is different than a herniated disc. It is a condition that occurs when the discs between the vertebrae in the spine begin to break down and lose their cushioning effect. This can lead to pain, stiffness, and a loss of mobility in the spine. DDD is a common cause of back pain and can often be treated without surgery.
There are several factors that can contribute to DDD, including:
aging
smoking
excessive weight
trauma or injury
poor posture
If you are experiencing pain as a result of DDD, it is also important to see a Chiropractor right away. A Chiropractor can help you determine the cause of your injury and provide you with the care you need.
Benefits of Chiropractic Care for Herniated Disc & Disc Pain
Chiropractic care is a non-invasive treatment to help restore your disc to proper alignment.
There are a few different Chiropractic techniques that can be used to treat a herniated disc. The most common technique is spinal manipulation, which is also known as chiropractic adjustment. This technique uses manual pressure to restore the alignment of the spine.
In some instances, it may include massage, electrical stimulation, and ultrasound. In many cases, Chiropractic care can help you avoid surgery.
Most people experience significant relief from their symptoms after chiropractic care. In some cases, however, there may be a small amount of discomfort as the disc heals. With time and patience, however, you should be able to return to your normal activities.

My career is centered around fitness and blood chemistry health. As part of my personal and professional life it is imperative that I maintain a well positioned spinal alignment for overall health. In all my years I've met many chiropractors that bring their own methods of adjusting. But until just recently, I've had the distinct pleasure in meeting Dr Travis Klug. Within two visits I've been renewed with incredible energy, flexibility, and enhanced gym performance. Dr Klug's methods of adjusting is second to none. Merrill, and surrounding areas, need to understand and be thankful for who they have readily available for their own specialized care.
De Klug was very thorough and listened to my concerns. He addressed the pain issues and put a comprehensive plan into place to move forward with reducing the inflammation areas.<br>I enjoyed meeting Dr. Klug and his staff. They are both very friendly and knowledgeable.<br><br>I would highly recommend Dr. Klug.
This was my first appointment with Dr. Klug. I was welcomed by Melissa and had a little paperwork to fill out. Next, I met with Dr. Klug and he took some x-rays to see how my spine looked and we talked about my past chiropractic experiences and issues I have had/have been having. Next, I went and enjoyed the roller table which helped loosen by back for the adjustment. Lastly, I got adjusted and I feel so much better even days later! Definitely recommend Dr. Klug! Super welcoming environment and great experience.
Dr. Klug is great to work with, he makes himself available and is so knowledgeable, he has been great help with adjustments throughout my pregnancy! Highly recommend!!
I first injured my back about 5 years ago and tried to use a different chiropractic. After about 18 months of appointments I never truly felt better so I just gave up and dealt with the pain. About 3 weeks ago I injured my back again bad enough to the point where I couldn't sleep, I gave Dr. Travis a call and he set me up for an appointment the next day. Within 2 appointments of laser therapy and adjustments I feel completely better. Better then I've felt in almost 5 years. I would highly recommend Dr. Travis and Melissa to anyone that's having back pain!
Came in with hip pain. Dr. Klug was very professional and listened to me. He focused on the areas that were a problem and addressed the pain. After the first initial visit, my discomfort reduced greatly! I was so relieved. His treatment plan worked well and I continue to have him adjust my hip and lower back for continued relief. I would highly recommend him and his staff.
Our whole family has gone to Merrill Chiropractic at some point ranging from back pain to allergies and leg issues and we have seen improvement with these issues. I would trust Merrill Chiropractic with any back/body pain.
After our family was involved in an auto accident while on vacation, Dr. Klug and Melissa had a treatment plan ready as soon as we got back to help us on a path to recovery! They are always friendly and make you feel welcome when you walk through their doors!
I’m very grateful for the care and advice that Dr. Klug has provided me for the pain and discomfort I’ve been having in my hip and foot. Melissa has been supportive and kind in my journey to healing. The laser therapy has helped the swelling and soreness in my foot and the pain in my hip. I’m now so much more mobile and can go on my daily walks again. Thank you Merrill Chiropractic!!
Very friendly, knowledgeable, and welcoming place. They offer services tailored to each individual. Best 15 minutes of my day every time! Definitely recommend to anyone looking for top tier chiropractic care!
I woke up one morning with a stiff neck and lots of pain. I thought it would go away in a day or so. Weeks later and it was worse. So much pain and numbness traveling down my arm and hand. I filled out paperwork online and was instantly contacted and able to be seen the same day. Dr. Klug explained everything in detail and made some small adjustments that day. I could tell some relief right away. After about a week the numbness went away. I look forward to my appointments. Very easy to work with. Easy to get in and they take my insurance.
Was very impressed with how thorough he explained all the symptoms, possible causes, and how we can try to fix the issues. Have been very satisfied so far with all the work and dedication they have. Would recommend to anyone having issues.
Great experience with Melissa and Travis. Hurt my back and struggled to walk with no pain, now I am able to do everything like normal. Highly recommended.
YOU GUYS!!! THIS MAN AND HIS TEAM ARE THE BEST!<br><br>Honestly if you're looking for a plan of action on your chiropractor care, this is where it's at. New methods, great staff and genuine in their practice. I got sick of the same ole same that was not touching my ailments. My hips have bursitis, had it since day one on earth and they feel GOOD! IM ALSO AFRAID TO GET MY NECK ADJUSTED, IT WAS PAINLESS, RELAXING IN A WAY!<br><br>RUN DON'T WALK! CALL THEM TODAY!!<br><br>Merrill Chiropractic is Merrills best!!
Dr Klug and his staff are fantastic! I decided to seek chiropractic care when my neck was causing me a lot of pain. Melissa and Dr Klug have improved my neck pain greatly! I highly recommend Merrill Chiropractic. They work with you on a treatment plan that fits you!
This is one of my favorite places to come! Dr Travis and his staff are caring and genuine people. The roller tables are a plus, I feel less stiff afterwards. Dr Travis is so down to earth which really helps me feel comfortable and has eased my initial anxiety about going to a chiropractor. Although I’ve only had 4 appointments I feel so much better already. I suffer from rheumatoid arthritis which gives me a lot of inflammation and painful joints as the disease continues to damage my body. I sought out a chiropractor after I tore a minuscule in my knee which gave me great pain. I needed a wheelchair along with a knee brace from the doctor. After a couple of weeks of transitioning to crutches I still had too much pain to walk much at all. It was suggested that I try laser therapy and I agreed although I was skeptical. After one treatment there was a significant decrease in pain and I could move more freely without so much pain. I am almost in disbelief about how much more the second therapy has done, I already have been able to take off the brace and walk without it. I was literally waiting for an MRI to be done and possible surgery because the pain made it impossible for me to walk long at all. I understand that there will be different results for each individual of course but after talking with Dr Travis about my body’s response to the last therapy he let me know others have the same success as I have had. Please allow Dr Travis and his staff help you with a care plan. I feel hope because of what they have done for me.<br>I was in Merrill visiting my daughter when I got my knee injury and was worried about how I would be received knowing I would be in the area for a short period of time<br>but I was treated just like I belonged and my short stay was not a deterrent in getting excellent care from a committed team. This was better than I could have ever expected and I’m so gratitude it all went better than I expected, thank you!
I have had wonderful service and experiences at Merrill Chiropractic!! I came in with severe neck and back pain, since I had my hips realigned and neck pain relieved. Dr. Klug is professional and great at explaining all steps in detail. A great place to help your body finally relax and live life without pain!!!
The staff is wonderful very kind. The Dr is very sincere and has helped me through my journey and still is very helpful. I Thank them all for there hard work. You are appreciated very much.
The environment was neat and clean. The staff was welcoming and communicated what I should expect. The doctor listened to my concerns and proposed a treatment that seemed appropriate. The initial treatments I received were comfortable and helpful and made ne want to return. I feel the treatments will help improve my condition.
The team at Merrill Chiropractic is great and have a very friendly staff. I have been going for little over a year now. I had low back pain, neck pain and shoulder pain. Between the adjustments and there new laser treatment i have been pain free for a while. I go back every 3 or 4 week just to keep stuff in line.
I was having knee pain daily. Worked with a surgeon who could not help me temporarily due to another health issue. Dr. Klug and the wonderful staff at Merrill Chiropractic introduced me to their 5 point laser therapy. Together we created a plan for treatment that we believed would lessen my pain and reduce swelling and inflammation in my knee. Because of the severity of my injury, we weren’t sure how much relief my body could give me.<br>I am just over the middle of my treatment plan and my pain and inflammation levels have reduced significantly. So much so that some people can’t tell which leg had the injury! I can’t thank them enough. Please. If you’re suffering from chronic pain, go see Travis Klug and team at Merrill Chiropractic. I’m am so grateful I did!
This office was clean and I was happy with the over all service I got from the staff and Dr. I just wish I could afford to do the treatment he wants me to do but my insurance doesn't cover it.
Well after suffering with jaw pain (TMJ) Dr. Klug suggested laser treatment. Here I am 4 treatments in and the pain went from a 10 to now a 0! Still some stiffness but doing some more treatments for that. Wow, pain is gone. Thank you Dr. Klug you've done it again!<br><br>Dr. Klug is the real deal. Went in with extreme lower back pain = gone! Had continuous ringing I'm my ears for 30 years, told Dr. Klug and now I hear everything but the ringing. Absolutely fantastic that Dr. Klug settled back in Merrill. The whole experience is wonderful from the minute you walk in to when you're heading home. Wish I could leave 6 stars! Oh, my wife Linda is a patient too now and feels the same. Brian Block
Dr Klug,is amazing with his in depth diagnostics of you specific issues and attentive to all your personal concerns and health improvement goals..He's WAY ABOVE AVERAGE along with his support TEAM MEMBERS...5 ***** STARS all the WAY...
After 8 years of constant Lower back pain I finally have the answer to why even after the first appointment I walked out with my back feeling the best it's been in years and the staff is so kind I highly recommend !!
Besides being family related, Travis was very helpful and professional. Came in with a massive headache due to a lot of tension in my neck and shoulders, in 1 visit my tension was resolved. Would recommend his office and will be back in the future. P.S. I had a chiropractor that I've been seeing since '94, who has retired. Dr Travis is an excellent choice
I starting going to Travis because my back would be in pain when I woke up and throughout the whole day. Since going to him it has improved greatly. The receptionists are great too!
Dr Klug is excellent! Very friendly staff that make you feel comfortable as soon as you walk in. I feel great after my first few adjustments. I highly recommend!
My experience at Merrill Chiropractic has been awesome. I have gotten relief from back pain. The staff is very friendly and my appointments are very welcoming.
