Treatment of Protrusion, Herniation and Extrusion in Pärnu If your back speaks with pain and every movement reminds you that something is wrong, we have a solution. We use the latest technologies – high-intensity magnetic therapy and shockwave therapy – that help your body heal itself. Cost of protrusion, herniation and extrusion treatment course Treatment course (4-6 weeks) Regular price (12 procedures) 850 € 960 € Immediate medical attention is needed for the following symptoms: Numbness in the perineal area, sudden motor disturbances (legs giving way), loss of bladder or bowel control. What do these diagnoses mean? Every back problem is a story – your story. But before we talk about treatment methods, it's important to understand what we're dealing with. Protrusion The contents of the intervertebral disc "bulge" out from their normal position but still remain within the disc's outer shell. Like a balloon that has stretched out a bit on one side but hasn't burst yet. Herniation (prolapse) The disc contents have broken through the outer shell and press on the nerves. It's like the contents of a balloon that have come out through a small opening. Painful, but treatable! Extrusion The disc material has completely separated and can move freely. Like a piece of balloon that has completely torn off. The most serious situation, but not hopeless. Vertebral slipping (Spondylolisthesis) One vertebra slips out of place and presses on the nerves. We cannot change the original cause, but we can reduce pain and inflammation symptoms and restore normal blood supply to the area. Spinal canal narrowing (Stenosis) The spinal canal becomes narrow and compresses the nerves. We cannot physically widen the canal, but we can support nerve function so they don't receive constant damage. Resorption – The body's own miracle This is the body's natural ability to "eat away" herniation material. Like the body cleaning up injury debris. The goal of our treatment is to stimulate and accelerate this natural healing process. 🔬 Our Technologies: Future medicine today We use two of the world's most precise and effective technologies that work together to support your body's natural healing: 🧲 High-intensity magnetic therapy How it works: Penetrates up to 18 cm deep into tissues, activates cellular energy production (ATP) by up to 40%, improves blood circulation and reduces inflammation. Creates conditions for faster recovery of the given area. ⚡ Shockwave therapy How it works: Targeted acoustic waves stimulate tissue recovery, trigger new blood vessel growth and activate the body's own healing mechanisms. Accelerates resorption of herniation material (the body's own cleaning). How the treatment works – Your healing journey 📅 Treatment course plan (4-6 weeks) 🎯 Week 1: Pain relief and inflammation reduction Frequency: 3 times per week Goal: Relief of acute pain, calming of inflammatory processes and creating initial recovery conditions. 🔄 Weeks 2-3: Active healing processes Frequency: 2-3 times per week Goal: Stimulation of resorption, improvement of blood supply, restoration of nerve nutrition and tissue regeneration. 📈 Weeks 4-6: Consolidation of results Frequency: 2 times per week Goal: Strengthening of recovered tissues, complete restoration of functions and stabilization of results. 🛡️ Follow-up care: 6 months of rest and maintenance Frequency: If needed, once per month Goal: Caring for the problematic body part, maintaining results and preventing recurrent problems. The body learns a new "normal" state. Why our technologies? We have chosen these methods not simply because they are new, but because they work. Scientific studies show impressive results: 📊 Proven effectiveness High-intensity magnetic therapy: Reduces back pain by up to 70% after just 4-8 sessions. Randomized studies confirm significant improvement compared to standard treatment or placebo (Krath et al., 2017). 🚀 Cellular level improvement ATP production: Increases by up to 40%, giving cells more energy for healing. Blood circulation: Improves significantly, bringing more oxygen and nutrients to the area. 🌿 Natural and safe Requires no medications, injections or surgery. Natural magnetic fields and acoustic waves for the body. Minimal side effects, suitable for elderly and patients with chronic conditions. Who can benefit from this treatment? Our technologies don't ask who you are or how long you've been in pain. They simply help your body heal itself. ✅ Suitable for you if... MRI or CT has shown protrusion, herniation or extrusion Chronic back pain won't go away with conventional methods Pain radiates to leg or arm (radiculopathy) You experience numbness, tingling or weakness in limbs You want to avoid surgery or have been waiting in surgery queue for long You've already tried physiotherapy, massages, but results are temporary You need a fast and effective solution that doesn't disrupt daily life ❌ Not suitable if... You have a pacemaker or defibrillator You are pregnant You have metal implants in the treatment area There is active cancer in the treatment area Extremely acute situation requiring immediate surgical intervention Your back and neck don't have to hurt Every day you suffer is a day you don't live your full life. But today you can change that. Our technologies are waiting to help your body heal itself – in a natural, safe and effective way. Most important questions Is the treatment painful? No! High-intensity magnetic therapy is completely painless – you'll only feel a gentle warming sensation or vibration. Shockwave therapy may cause slight discomfort, but it's tolerable and shows that the treatment is working. Many patients find it even relaxing. When will I see the first results? Every body is different, but most people feel relief within the first week. Significant changes usually appear within 2-3 weeks when healing processes are activated. Complete recovery can take 4-6 weeks. Can I avoid surgery? In many cases yes! Our goal is to activate the body's natural resorption process, where the organism itself "eats away" the herniation material. Studies show that up to 70% of cases improve with conservative treatment, avoiding the need for surgery. Why exactly 4-6 weeks and then 6 months of rest? 4-6 weeks is the time needed for active tissue regeneration and resorption. The following 6 months are critical for recovered tissues to strengthen and the body to learn a new "normal" state. This helps prevent recurrent problems. Do I need to do anything special at home? We'll give you individual recommendations that support the treatment. This may include simple exercises, posture recommendations or lifestyle adaptations. But nothing complex or time-consuming – the emphasis is precisely on the treatment taking place mainly with us. Why is the treatment course cheaper than individual visits? Back problem treatment requires consistency. With a treatment course we guarantee you the right frequency and result. We can also better plan your treatment and dedicate more time to you. The €110 savings is our way of recognizing your commitment to your health.
