Spinal decompression is a non-surgical chiropractic method used to relieve chronic back pain, neck pain and sciatica caused by may different conditions.
This technique is performed on a specific spinal decompression table to alleviate pressure in the spine and relieve back pain by gently stretching the spine. The treatment will not cause any discomfort and can be relaxing. Many patients even fall asleep during their session!
By slowly and gently stretching the patient’s spine, pressure is taking off of the spinal disks (the gel-like cushioning between your vertebrae). This also takes pressure off of the nerves in your spine and promotes movement of water, oxygen, and other nutrients into the discs which promotes healing.
During this procedure, bones, joints, and discs in the back separate, causing spinal decompression to occur. The table induced position can make the disc retract or reposition. Assisting the spine in these movements is what brings comfort to the spinal nerves, easing pain and releasing tension.
This non-surgical option needs little to no recovery time in between sessions, is pain free, costing much less than surgical options.
