In this episode of Back at It with Dr. Decompression, Dr. JD Dudum unpacks the truth behind degenerative disc disease—what it really is, what symptoms to watch for, and how to manage it without turning to surgery or endless injections.

You’ll learn the top three at-home movements to relieve stiffness and improve spinal mobility (Cat-Cow, Child’s Pose, and Knee-to-Chest), as well as when those stretches aren’t enough. Dr. Dudum breaks down how targeted decompression therapy helps reduce inflammation, restore movement, and relieve pain—often dramatically. If you’ve ever felt like your spine locks up when getting out of bed or stepping out of a car, this episode is a must-listen. Bonus: Hear how one patient went from avoiding car rides to reclaiming his life in just two weeks.
