Pinched Nerve Treatment in Gallatin, TN

Are You a Candidate For Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression?

A pinched nerve in your back can inflict extreme pain that runs from your lower back and down the back of one leg running from the backside down the rear of the thigh and even into the calf and foot.

Pain from a pinched nerve may start abruptly or gradually. Usually, it is characterized by sharp, shooting pain that feels a lot like an electrical shock. Moving the leg, back or other area of the body affected by the pinched nerve will often increase this pain.

Pain from a pinched nerve may be distributed evenly along the leg, but there commonly are certain spots where the pain is more intense. This pain is often followed by numbness or a tingling sense along the sciatic nerves, the longest nerve group in the body which runs from the lower back and down the back of both legs.

Sources of a Pinched Nerve.

A pinched nerve may result from a process which causes pressure or inflammation of the nerve roots which make up the sciatic nerve. This pressure might be brought on by a variety of factors, including things like a ruptured intervertebral spinal disc, the narrowing of the bony spinal canal (called spinal stenosis), or, in rare cases, by an infection or tumor.

The sciatic nerve is the longest and largest in the body, measuring 3/4 of an inch in diameter in adults. It starts in the sacral plexus, the network of nerves located in the lower back (lumbosacral spine).

The sciatic nerve and its divisions are what allow movement and feeling, or motor and sensory functions. in the thigh, knee, calf, ankle, foot and toes.

If your sciatic nerve is compacted, or “pinched”, it can cause pain along these pathways. This is the reason pinched nerve pain can radiate or spread to other parts of your body.

Pinched nerve pain may be caused by a bulging or herniated disk, degenerative disk disease, piriformis disorder, pregnancy, spinal stenosis, a spinal tumor or spinal infection, or by injury.

All of these conditions can apply pressure to the sciatic nerve or other related nerve roots located in your lower back. It is this compression, or pinching, that causes your pain and other signs and symptoms.

    Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dr. Groff and his team are wonderful, caring and very knowledgeable! I came in with extreme neck pain and migraines due to disc degeneration in my neck. It impacted my life almost daily. The spinal decompression therapy along with their guidance on home care have helped me get back to enjoying life! I cannot recommend them enough and will definitely use them for any future needs. So thankful a friend recommended them after they helped her!!

Since my 20s I've struggled with lower back pain due to sports, heavy weight lifting and just not taking care of my body. When my back locked up, most of the time I'd just lay on the floor until the pain was bearable and it would eventually just go away. Tried PT a few times and while that helped it didn't resolve my issue. Now in my 60s my body just doesn't respond like it use to and I couldn't shake my latest back pain. Being totally against surgey, I decided to give Dr Mark Groff and his team a try. In my initial consultation with Dr Groff, I realized I'd made the right choice! My lower back issue was explained in detail, language I understood, and backed up with stats. "The what and the why" was laid out there and so was the plan to fix/heal me, not just get me pain free. Throughout my treatment I could tell my back was responding in a very positive way ... something totally different than I had experienced before. The decompression process just makes since once you're educated about it and your personal situation. Now, just a few days ago my 20 year old son landed in the ER with pretty much the same lower back issue but more severe. We were transferred to another ER and ALL we heard was surgery was needed. Respectfully, we wanted a second look and of course my experience lead us to Dr Groff and staff. After looking at my son's MRI, Dr Groff said we can heal you without surgery. With no pressure and full understanding, my son made his decision to go with decompression therapy as well ...it just made sense. Now he's confident he is on a healing path and in better spirits knowing surgery wasn't the only option.

    Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I just finished my last treatment yesterday, as Dr. Groff put it, I graduated, and I feel amazing! Dr. Groff and the entire staff are absolutely the best people. Every question I had during my treatment was always answered, whether by Dr. Groff himself or one of the friendly staff members.

I can’t express how much I appreciate them and how grateful I am to finally walk again without pain. Thanks to their care, I’ll be able to ride my Harley again by next spring without hesitation!

If you’re experiencing any kind of pain, I highly recommend Disk Center of America in Gallatin. They truly gave me my life back!

After struggling with persistent lower back pain, I decided to try spinal decompression therapy. From my very first appointment, Dr. Groff was attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely cared about my well-being. He explained the procedure thoroughly and set realistic expectations.

The entire team was professional and supportive, making each visit comfortable and reassuring. After several sessions, I noticed a significant reduction in my pain, and I finally feel like I can get back to my normal activities.

    Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Just for starters I am the biggest skeptical person.  When I talked to Dr groff I was thinking no way this was going to work. I am glad to say I tried it. The staff were all very nice and treated people like family and not just patient. If I had the same problem as before I would do it again.
