Our Limitless member Bo went from 10/10 pain, debilitating sciatica, and a 10mm L5-S1 disc herniation to 100% pain-free in ~ 90 days without back surgery.

In this episode of the Whealth Podcast, Bo shares her full story, including the moment her body “shut down,” what her MRI showed, why the spine specialist immediately recommended surgery (microdiscectomy), and how she chose a non-surgical recovery plan focused on movement, biomechanics, nervous system regulation, and progressive rehab.

If you’re dealing with L5-S1 disc herniation, sciatica, disc bulge, low back pain, nerve pain, numbness, tingling, or you’ve been told you “need surgery,” this conversation will give you clarity, hope, and a realistic path forward.

This isn’t about quick fixes. It’s about building a long-term solution so you can get your life back.
