How to exercise for a herniated disk

Patients with herniated discs should exercise the muscles of the lower back, and the better way to exercise is to do the small flying swallow, that is, the upper body is backward, and the legs are kicked backward. Of course, the better way to exercise is recommended swimming, especially breaststroke, when swimming, the body bends forward, the upper body lifts up, the leg floats up, the damage to the intervertebral disc is small, and in the process of activity can exercise the muscles of the low back, so it is a better way to exercise. Lumbar disc herniation patients can not be achieved through exercise for therapeutic purposes, exercise is actually exercise vertebral body next to the muscles, ligaments, rather than exercise disc. Vertebral muscles and ligaments play a role in coordinating movement, stabilizing the vertebral structure, and protecting the intervertebral discs. If the muscle strength is insufficient, the lumbar vertebrae have a greater likelihood of producing abnormal movement, and the likelihood of intervertebral disc damage will increase, so it is important to emphasize exercising the muscles of the lumbar back to the patients with herniated discs, instead of increasing the amount of loads too much.
