Chiropractic Spinal Decompression Therapy
Chiropractic spinal decompression is a non-surgical, traction-based therapy designed to alleviate back, neck, and radiating leg pain caused by bulging, herniated, or degenerating discs. By gently stretching the spine on a specialized table, it creates negative pressure that reduces nerve compression and promotes nutrient-rich fluid flow to damaged discs.
Key Details About Decompression Therapy
Conditions Treated: Effective for sciatica, herniated discs, degenerative disc disease, facet syndrome, and chronic, long-lasting back pain.
How it Works: The treatment utilizes a motorized, computerized table to gently pull the spine, creating a vacuum effect that can help retract herniated disc material.
What it Feels Like: The procedure is generally designed to be comfortable and should not cause sharp pain, though some mild pressure or a stretching sensation is normal.
Session Details: Sessions typically last 20 to 30 minutes, often requiring a series of treatments for maximum benefit.
Benefits: It aims to reduce pain, increase mobility, and help patients avoid, or recover from, back surgery.
