What Is Spinal Decompression?

Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression offers the most advanced technology available for the treatment of severe chronic back pain and neck pain. Conditions treated include herniated discs, bulging or protruding discs, degenerative disc disease, stenosis, spinal arthritis, sciatica and posterior facet syndrome.

Spinal Decompression is non-surgical, non-invasive, and has no known side effects. It is proven to be successful even with patients who have had limited success with other conventional therapies like drugs, injections, chiropractic, physiotherapy, massage, acupuncture, and even failed back surgery.

Spinal Decompression creates a unique and highly specific force that gently stretches the spine, causing negative pressure to develop in the damaged disc. This causes the disc bulge (or herniation) to move off of the injured nerve and retract back into the disc. At the same time, the negative pressure also draws water, oxygen and nutrients back into the disc, restoring and rejuvenating the disc towards a normal height. During the course of Spinal Decompression care your pain diminishes as the disc heals.

The technology behind non-surgical Spinal Decompression allows for customized and specific decompression care for each patient. It is very different from generalized traction, an antiquated device that is unable to single out and target a specific damaged disc the way Spinal Decompression can.

The internal computer of the decompression table is programmed by the doctor to target the exact location of your damaged disc for care. During each treatment session, the pulling forces you experience are calculated specifically for you. The on-board computer monitors the decompression forces – 4,000 times per second—and adjusts them as needed based on your body’s response to treatment. This ensures that you experience an accurate and pain-free session.

The Patient Experience

During each treatment session, the patient lies on a heavily-padded comfortable bed, secured into position by an upper- and lower-body harness. Typically, each session is divided into cycles where spinal decompression forces alternate between a maximum and minimum therapeutic level. The cycling of forces in this manner creates a pumping action that simulates the natural processes responsible for re-nourishing and healing your damaged disc.

Most patients experience a gentle stretch in the lumbar spine (or neck). Patients find this therapy quite comfortable and even relaxing. Few patients may experience mild muscular soreness during treatment, similar to what one might feel when starting a new exercise regimen.

Adjunctive therapies are prescribed to support the benefits of Spinal Decompression therapy.

After the course of care is complete, patients return for evaluation and monitoring.
