At Body Revive Chiropractic, we understand how debilitating back and neck pain can be. For those seeking relief from conditions like herniated discs, sciatica, or chronic back discomfort, spinal decompression therapy offers a non-invasive, drug-free approach to healing.
What is Spinal Decompression Therapy?
Spinal decompression is a specialized therapy designed to gently stretch the spine, creating space between vertebrae to alleviate pressure on compressed discs and nerves. This therapy uses a motorized traction table or similar device to carefully elongate the spine in a controlled manner.
By reducing pressure, spinal decompression promotes the flow of oxygen, water, and nutrients into the affected discs, aiding in their natural healing and improving spinal health.
Who Can Benefit from Spinal Decompression?
Spinal decompression is often recommended for individuals suffering from:
- Herniated or bulging discs
- Sciatica
- Degenerative disc disease
- Pinched nerves
- Chronic back or neck pain
- Spinal stenosis
If you’ve tried other treatments without success, spinal decompression may be an effective option for you.
How Does Spinal Decompression Work?
During a session, the patient lies on a specially designed table. A harness is placed around the pelvis and another around the trunk. The system gently stretches the spine, creating negative pressure within the discs. This process allows bulging or herniated discs to retract and reduces pressure on surrounding nerves.
Each session typically lasts 20 to 30 minutes, depending on your unique treatment plan, and most patients require multiple sessions over several weeks to achieve optimal results.
Benefits of Spinal Decompression Therapy
- Non-invasive: No surgery or injections are required.
- Pain relief: Targets the root cause of the pain, not just the symptoms.
- Improved mobility: Reduces stiffness and improves spinal flexibility.
- Accelerated healing: Encourages the body’s natural healing processes.
