DECOMPRESSION TREATMENT

Spinal Decompression Therapy

Our advanced Spinal Decompression Table effectively treats herniated discs, bulging discs, sciatica (leg pain), and degenerated discs in both the cervical and lumbar spine.

What is Spinal Decompression?

Spinal decompression is a therapeutic technique designed to relieve pressure on the spine and surrounding nerves. Herniated discs, also known as slipped or bulging discs, occur when the soft inner material of a spinal disc protrudes through the tougher outer layer, irritating or compressing nearby nerves and causing pain, numbness, or weakness. Spinal decompression creates negative pressure within the disc, encouraging the herniated portion to retract and reduce pressure on the affected nerves.

Surgical vs. Non-Surgical Decompression

There are two main methods of spinal decompression:

• Surgical Decompression – Involves removing a portion of the herniated disc through an invasive procedure to relieve pressure on the nerves.
• Non-Surgical Decompression – Performed using specialized tables or devices that gently stretch the spine, creating negative pressure to promote disc retraction and healing.

What the Research Says

Several studies support the effectiveness of non-surgical spinal decompression:

• A study published in the Journal of Neurosurgery: Spine (2014) found that patients with herniated lumbar discs who underwent non-surgical spinal decompression experienced significant improvements in pain and disability scores.
• Another study from the Journal of Physical Therapy Science (2017) reported that combining spinal decompression with other therapies led to enhanced pain relief and functional recovery in patients with lumbar disc herniation.

Can We Help You?

Spinal decompression therapy may be an effective solution for individuals suffering from herniated discs or nerve compression. Our doctors will evaluate your specific condition and recommend the most appropriate treatment approach tailored to your needs.

Rehabilitation and Long-Term Success

For long-term success, we combine spinal decompression with a personalized rehabilitation program to strengthen and stabilize the spine.

• We assess strength, range of motion, balance, coordination, posture, and muscle performance.
• Based on these results, we develop a customized rehabilitation plan using state-of-the-art equipment to promote lasting recovery and prevent future issues.

Even if other treatments have failed, spinal decompression combined with targeted rehabilitation may offer relief from even the most painful and debilitating spinal conditions.
