SPINAL DECOMPRESSION

What is Spinal Decompression ? 

Spinal Decompression therapy is a safe, non- surgical and drug free treatment method for patients who suffer from chronic neck and back pain caused by disc problems and other spinal related conditions.

A decompression treatment gently lengthens and releases the spine through repetitive movements by our Spinal Decompression tables.

As the table pulls and releases, a negative pressure change is created within the intervertebral disc, surrounding soft tissue and spinal joints. The reduction of pressure inside the disc (decompression) allows the disc bulge or herniation and the nutrients to be pulled back into the disc and reduce pressure on other tissues that contribute to pain and inflammation.

Rehydration of the disc and surrounding structures creates a physiological change which decreases pain levels and assists the body’s natural healing process.

Why Spinal Decompression Therapy ?

Spinal Decompression Therapy can help with:

 

  • Bulging or Herniated Discs

  • Spinal Stenosis

  • Sciatica

  • Disc Degeneration

  • Facet Syndrome

  • Spondylosis

  • Pinched Nerves

  • Failed Back Surgery

  • Arm/Leg Pain and Numbness

  • Chronic Neck or Back Pain that is not responding to traditional spinal treatment

How does Spinal Decompression work ?

A Formula for Relief


When a bulging or herniated disc slips out of alignment, it may compress nearby nerves. The compression can block the nerves from sending and receiving messages from the central nervous system and brain, leading to chronic pain.

As long as compression continues, damaged discs seldom heal and patients will suffer pain and other symptoms.
 

When Negative is Positive


Spinal Decompression Therapy creates space between the different vertebrae, providing room for the bulging or herniated disc to be drawn back into its central position in the spine. This relieves pressure on the nerves and the surrounding soft tissues.

By reversing the effects of axial load or compression in the spine, increased circulation occurs which allows the flow of nutrients and oxygen back into the disc which stimulates healing.
