If you’re trying to find back exercises for a back disc that can help alleviate your pain in record time, you’ve come to the right place.

A good exercise regimen is a very important part of healing any disc condition (or back-related condition, for that matter), but it can be a little intimidating because you don’t want to re-injure yourself.

Because of this fear, the first thing I want you to know is that a good exercise regimen should NOT cause you more pain. You can expect to feel achiness, but this is one situation where you don’t want to push yourself.

It can be very tricky to heal a bulging disc, and if you jump into these exercises too quickly, you could cause more injury rather than improvement.

So, what would be a good regimen of back exercises for disc problems?

Well, there are 3 types of exercises that should be done every day, and these exercises will help you whether your disc condition is in your neck, upper back, or lower back.

The first exercise I’ll teach you requires a therapy ball, which is one of those large balls they use in physical therapy clinics.

Basically, you just want to sit on the ball and gently bounce up and down for 4 – 5 minutes each day. The bounce should be so gentle that your buttock doesn’t come up off the ball at all.

What does this exercise do, you may wonder? It pumps each spinal disc, which helps to pump out toxins that slow healing and at the same time, brings new oxygen and nutrients into the disc for faster healing.

Does this only help the low back? No – this exercise will pump every single disc in the spine, so even if your problem is in the neck or the upper back, you can still benefit from this exercise.

The second exercise you want to do every day involves the use of a mini-trampoline (which can be found at any sports store). Simply march in place with your head looking forward and your arms to your side for 4 – 5 minutes each day.

This exercise will help to improve your balance, which is very important for maintaining a properly aligned spine. When you have proper alignment, it removes pressure off the discs and allows them to heal faster.

Once again, this exercise is helpful no matter where your disc condition is located within your spine.
