Spinal Decompression
This gentle, non-surgical procedure can provide lower back relief and neck pain relief, sciatica pain relief, and is a state-of-the-art procedure for bulging, herniated or degenerative disc disease in the neck and lower back regions.
The gentle distractive forces of Spinal Decompression improve nerve flow, blood flow, and nutrient exchange to the injured area. You’ll experience several cycles of stretch and relaxation, which graduates to a peak over a period of several minutes.
How Long does the Treatment Take?
Treatments typically last 30 minutes and are done 2-3 times a week.
A complete program targeting the function of the stabilization muscles and discs is a vital part of Spinal Decompression. Exercise and adjunctive therapies such as muscle stimulation and laser therapy can assist in rehabilitation of these structures. Our goal is to not only help heal the disc, but to also enhance muscular control and support of the back and neck.
Regular home exercises and periodic visits to our office will help in maintaining your spinal health and reduce the probability of reoccurrence.
