Yes, I have multiple scans of a semi-herniated (not fully herniated, but thinned and a bit bulging) disc in the lower end of my spine, but it's far from being in the state of needing surgery. My solution was (with the help of the book) to identify and treat my trigger points. Regular swimming and bodyweight exercises also helped/helps me a lot, but they help more with reducing the number of painful episodes, not making the pain go away when I have it. I can do that only with massage.
