Decompression

Non-Surgical Decompression

Lumbar/Cervical:

Spinal injuries like herniated discs, degenerative disc disease, lower back and neck pain, sciatica, post-surgical patients, stenosis, and Facet Syndrome can be extremely painful. If the pain becomes debilitating, surgery may seem like it is the only answer and it is not! Did you know that half of all back surgeries do not provide lasting relief for the patient? The cost of back surgery is astronimcal, so why not try something else less inavsive that could provide PERMANENT relief at a fraction of the cost with non-surgical spinal decompression?

Spinal decompression therapy uses a traction machine to gently separate the individual bones in the spine. The affected segments can be isolated and placed under a negative pressure. This can help return the protruding or bulging portion of the disc back to its proper place so that it stops interfering with surrounding nerves.

Prior to starting, the doctor determines the weight of the machine’s pull. Taking the patient’s physical stature along with severity of their condition into consideration, the traction machine is set. With the patient strapped in, the traction pulls and releases, creating a pressure change in the disc.
