NON-SURGICAL SPINAL DECOMPRESSION

Spinal Decompression Therapy involves stretching the spine, using a traction table or similar motorized device, with the goal of relieving back pain and/or leg pain. In addition, it helps to alleviate neck and/or arm pain that you may be experiencing.

This procedure is called nonsurgical decompression therapy (as opposed to surgical spinal decompression, such as laminectomy and microdiscectomy).

Spinal decompression devices use the same basic principle of spinal traction that has been offered by chiropractors, osteopaths, and other appropriately trained health professionals for many years.

Both traction and decompression therapy are applied with the goals of relieving pain and promoting an optimal healing environment for bulging, degenerating, or herniated discs.

Spinal decompression is a type of traction therapy applied to the spine in an attempt to bring about several theoretical benefits including:
•Create a negative intra-discal pressure to promote retraction or repositioning of the herniated or bulging disc material.
•Create a lower pressure in the disc that will cause an influx of healing nutrients and other substances into the disc.
