Diagnosing Disc Disease

DIAGNOSTIC CIRCUMDUCTION

Damage / Pain Scenerio
At the time, that fall on your buttocks when you were roller skating as a teenager, the football injury where the guy landed on you while you were falling backwards into a sitting position, or the time your back snapped forward in an auto accident, all seemed to be relatively insignificant injuries.

Traditional Diagnostic Methods
Understand at the outset, that medical science's understanding of the causes of back pain is so limited that there, to this day, is no agreed-upon method of diagnosing a structural abnormality of the spine despite two extensive reviews in the medical literature

Self Diagnosing your Disc
I am convinced, through experience teaching The O'Connor Technique (tm), that, it is not difficult for a patient of normal intelligence with back pain or neck pain and no formal medical training to identify, without expensive modalities, the exact site of the painful disc material displacement; and, thereby, make their own diagnosis.

Documenting your disc
Back pain episodes are frequently separated by long intervals between painful events. For that reason, it is easy to forget the site of the displaced disc material or, more importantly, the particular MANEUVER or sequence of movements that successfully alleviated that unique pain.
