About Relief Source Non-Surgical Disc Centers

The Place Where Lasting Relief Begins

If you’re struggling with chronic back or neck pain, you’ve probably tried everything—painkillers, injections, physical therapy, even chiropractic care—only to find that the pain keeps coming back. Maybe you’ve been told surgery is your only option, but the risks, downtime, and uncertainty make you hesitate.

At Relief Source Non-Surgical Disc Centers, we believe there’s a better way.

We specialize in non-surgical solutions for bulging and herniated discs, degenerative disc disease, sciatica, and spinal stenosis, helping people just like you finally break free from pain and get back to living their lives—without drugs or surgery.

  • Class IV Warm Laser Therapy – Helps accelerate healing, improve circulation, and reduce inflammation – completely pain-free and drug-free.
  • Soft Wave Therapy – Utilizes acoustic waves to stimulate the body’s natural healing processes. It works by increasing blood flow, reducing inflammation, and promoting tissue regeneration.

    Who we help

    We work with people who have:

    • Herniated & Bulging Discs – That nagging back or neck pain that won’t go away? It could be a disc pressing on a nerve. We help relieve the pressure and restore movement.
    • Sciatica – Shooting pain down the leg? Tingling or numbness? Sciatica is a sign of nerve compression, and our treatments help relieve the root cause.
    • Spinal Stenosis & Degenerative Disc Disease – As we age, our spinal discs lose hydration and become thinner, leading to pain and stiffness. Our treatments help restore movement and reduce discomfort.
    • Post-Surgical Pain – If you’ve had spine surgery but still have pain, we may be able to help. Many of our patients come to us after surgery has failed—only to find relief with our non-surgical solutions.

    At Relief Source Disc Centers, we believe you deserve more than just another round of medication or a rushed recommendation for surgery. You deserve a treatment plan that is focused on restoring your quality of life – not just managing symptoms.

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    Dr. Lembo is excellent! I came in with a bulging disc causing lumbar pain and sciatica down my left leg and around my 10th visit, I’m almost pain free. He took the time to explain my situation clearly and exactly what treatments he would be doing throughout the process. He really knows his stuff and genuinely cares. Highly recommended!!!
    Response from the owner:Thanks so much for the thoughtful review! It's incredibly rewarding to know our non-surgical protocol is helping people feel better and regain their quality of life.
    Dr. Lembo is not your typical doctor, and I mean that in the best way possible. He has a wonderful "bedside" manner, listens to what you tell him about your pain issues and is kind, knowledgeable and patient. It's easy to see that he really cares about your wellbeing. He takes the time to explain the various machines he uses and also how they help heal you. I began seeing Dr. Lembo for severe sciatica caused by a bulging disc at L5/L4 in late April and am still undergoing decompression and laser treatments but I am definitely feeling a big difference. I no longer need a cane to walk and my pain levels are much, much lower. If you want/need a surgery free option to regaining spinal health look no further.
    Response from the owner:Wow — thank you for such a thoughtful review! It means so much to us that you took the time to share your experience.
    Dr. Lembo does an excellent job of explaining the procedures and their purpose. The non-surgical procedures are just that and completely different than any other chiropractic service I have tried. The main device is comfortable and allows for a gradual painless adjustment rather than an abrupt jolt as in most other manual procedures.
    I am very pleased with the results and highly recommend Relief Source Chiropractic, PC.

    Response from the owner:Your review brightened our day-thank you for the positive feedback!
    Prior to finding Dr. Steve Lembo and Relief Source, I was suffering with several years of chronic low back pain. Over the years I tried physical therapy and chiropractic but the problem did not improve. Dr. Lembo’s program combining non-surgical spinal decompression with Soft Wave therapy and warm laser has really made a difference. The pain is gone and I’m back to doing everything without limits. HIGHLY RECOMMEND Dr.Steve Lembo and Relief Source Chiropractic!
    Response from the owner:We appreciate your amazing review! Providing advanced treatment technology for non-surgical relief is our passion 🙂
    I highly recommend Dr. Lembo for anyone suffering with back pain, as I have for many years now. Over the years my pain got progressively worse to the point I could no longer do many of the things I enjoy doing.
    Using a combination of the DRX9000 decompression machine and soft wave therapy Dr. Lembo made a real difference in my recovery and I find I have less pain and a greater tolerance for activities I enjoy.
    Dr. Lembo is different than other chiropractors I've seen who prescribed a lifetime of never ending visits. Instead, he reviewed my recent MRI report and designed a 12-week program of treatment that was designed for my specific condition and led to noticeable results. At the conclusion he never tried to pressure me into unnecessary additional visits and not only was his treatment plan effective but he is also an incredibly kind and genuine person who I would consider a friend now.
    If you're in pain, even if you've tried injections and other treatments that failed to help, you definitely need to give Dr. Lembo a visit.
    Response from the owner:We appreciate your thoughtful review more than words can say! Caring for people and truly connecting with them is what drives everything we do. We're honored and grateful to be part of your story.
    Dr. Steve Lembo is truly exceptional when it comes to spinal decompression therapy and scoliosis care. His approach is both professional and compassionate, creating a comfortable environment from the very first visit. The decompression therapy sessions provided noticeable relief, improving mobility and reducing pain. Dr. Lembo’s deep understanding of scoliosis and tailored treatment plan made a significant difference in posture and alignment. He takes the time to explain everything clearly and listens to your concerns. His dedication to his patients’ well-being is evident, and I’m grateful for the progress I’ve made under his care. Highly recommended for spinal health!
    Response from the owner:We truly appreciate your 5-star feedback. Every kind word motivates us to keep giving our best to everyone we serve!
    Dr Lembo, is terrific and the office is non traditional. No desk no waiting just one on one with the doctor. Definitely not what you think of when you think of other chiropractic offices
    Had researched decompression because I wanted to be proactive with my back so I’m not in pain as I get older
    I’m 64 and an avid golfer, the treatments are great, I find it relaxing and recommend it highly
    Dr Lembo is super nice and easy to talk to.
    All in all a great experience!

    I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Lembo. After struggling with back pain, I was looking for real relief without surgery. Thanks to his treatment, my pain is gone and I feel completely back to normal. The care, attention, and expertise he provides made a huge difference. Highly recommend to anyone dealing with back issues.
    Response from the owner:Thanks for the 5-stars! It's always an honor to be part of someone's healing journey. We're grateful for your trust.
    I brought my mother to Relief Source Chiropractic, PC for SoftWave Therapy, and the results have been truly amazing. She was struggling with knee pain for quite some time, and after just a few sessions, we noticed a significant improvement. Dr. Stephen C. Limbo is incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and professional. Ho took the time to explain everything and made my mother feel comfortable and cared for. I’m so grateful for the healing she’s experienced here. Highly recommend this place to anyone dealing with joint pain.
    Response from the owner:Thank you so much for the 5-star review! We're thrilled you had a great experience at our clinic. It means the world to us!
    For years, I struggled with persistent lower back pain due to bulging and herniated discs at L4/L5. The discomfort and tightness were constant companions, making sitting or standing a challenge and impacting my daily life significantly. Frustrated by the limitations and eager for relief, I decided to seek professional help and underwent an MRI.

    Dr. Steve Lembo at Relief Source Chiropractic was a beacon of hope. From our first meeting, his professionalism and depth of knowledge were evident. He took the time to thoroughly understand my concerns, patiently explaining the intricacies of my condition and outlining a comprehensive treatment plan. His personalized approach instilled confidence and reassured me that I was in capable hands.

    We embarked on a treatment journey that included spinal decompression, complemented by heat, stim, laser therapy, and ice. Remarkably, after just a few sessions, I noticed significant improvements. The pain subsided, and my mobility increased, allowing me to reclaim activities I had long missed. Now, over seven years later, the results have been enduring.

    Thanks to Dr. Lembo's expertise and the effective treatments, I feel more energetic and less restricted in my daily activities. The exercises and advice for at-home care have been instrumental in maintaining my progress and overall well-being.

    I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Steve Lembo at Relief Source Chiropractic to anyone in need of chiropractic care. His combination of professional service, effective treatment, and a welcoming environment made my experience exceptional. I am profoundly grateful for the positive impact on my health and quality of life.
