Decompression

Decompression therapy is a non-surgical treatment option for neck and back pain, herniated discs, sciatica, and other conditions that affect the spine. The therapy is designed to alleviate pressure on the spinal discs and nerves by gently stretching the spine.

The therapy typically involves lying on a table, with the affected area of the spine secured to the table using a harness or other device. The table then uses a computer-controlled mechanism to gently pull the spine in a specific direction, creating a negative pressure within the disc and allowing it to pull away from the surrounding nerves.

This procedure can help to alleviate pain, reduce inflammation, and improve mobility and range of motion. It is considered a safe and effective treatment option for many patients who are suffering from neck and back pain and other conditions that affect the spine.

Our state-of-the-art decompression tables use gentle traction to stretch the spine, which can help alleviate pressure on the spinal discs and nerves.

Types of Decompression

There are several different types of decompression therapy that can be used to alleviate pressure on the spinal discs and nerves, including:

Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression: This therapy uses a computer-controlled table to gently stretch the spine, creating a negative pressure within the disc and allowing it to pull away from the surrounding nerves.

Traction: This therapy uses a mechanical device to stretch the spine and can be done manually or with the help of a machine. Lumbar Decompression Belt: A belt that is worn around the lower back to provide traction and stretch the spine. Inversion therapy: This therapy involves hanging upside down in order to stretch the spine and reduce pressure on the discs. Epidural Steroid Injections: This therapy involves injecting a steroid medication into the epidural space around the spinal cord, which can help reduce inflammation and alleviate pain.

Chiropractic adjustments: Chiropractors use manual adjustments to realign the spine and restore proper function to the joints, muscles, and nerves.
