➢ Soft Tissue Therapy: Myofascial release or massage helps to reduce muscle spasm and improve movement.

➢ Flexion-Distraction Technique: This technique involved a specialised table that gentle stretches the spine. This helps to create negative pressure within the disc to allow herniated disc to retract and relief nerve compression and promote healing.
