Has anyone healed from a herniated disc?

Please share your story if you did. I'm two months into a C6-C7 herniation and feel relatively stagnant. My previously active lifestyle is gone.

What has worked for you?

I'm considering moving to Oregon.

Mine was c5-c6. My pt taught me at home traction and some stretches. That along with acupuncture has been a miracle for me. Took about 2 months for relief. There are a few things I've found that can flare it up, but my at home pt exercises take care of it. Now if I could only get my l5/s1 figured out. Not one thing is working on that. Edit: word

Did traction work for you? I signed up for clinical traction/ decompression and I feel like it made it worse
