It is not uncommon for adults to experience back pain more frequently once they reach age 60. Because this is the case, there is somewhat of a normalcy to this problem.
The hip joints are in use pretty much anytime we move. So are the joints of the spine. Both areas carry a significant physical load, and they sit in close proximity to each other.

Treatment uses a Thulium laser to treat the posterior annulus of each symptomatic herniated disc for quick results with minimal downtime.
