| Core Tip |
Lumbar intervertebral disc herniation is diagnosed worldwide. Generally, non-surgical treatments are recommended and may consist of physical therapy, complementary and alternative medicine options (e.g., acupuncture, acupotomy, Chinese massage, and Chinese herbal medicine), and pharmacotherapy. The latter can include muscle relaxants, systemic steroids, and steroid injections. We report a case of reabsorption of lumbar disc herniation following a conservative treatment regimen involving traditional Chinese medicine, acupuncture, and massage. |
