Where to Go For Help With Herniated Disc?
Tomorrow I'm going to my doctor for a referral for physiotherapy. I've had a herniated disc - L5-S1 for many years now and I did go for physio for it just over three years ago. This was in Phuket and I was very happy with the physio as the doctor and the physiotherapists used and suggested only natural remedies, like massage and exercises to help.
The physio there included 8 sessions of a combination of heat, electrodes, ultrasound and traction, then some stretches towards the end. When I first moved to Dubai, around 3 years ago, I had gone to two other rhumatologits adn I wasn't happy with them since they suggested only one session of physio and they wanted me to take drugs for the pain. I tried the drugs only for a short time and they didn't help.
I thought of this when I saw the thread on sleep clinics and someone had mentioned Neuro Spinal Hospital. Have any of you used this or do you know anyone who has? Or if they don't have a good reputation, can you suggest where I could go for physio or similar treatment? Our health insurance covers quite a good selection of hospitals and clinics, so this is good. Oh, and my doctor is at City Hospital. It would be nice if I heard good reviews about the physio there too.
Thanks for any help.
