Spinal Decompression
An illustration demonstrating the process of decompressing a compressed spinal disc, showing the separation of vertebrae to alleviate pressure on the disc.

Spinal decompression is a non-surgical treatment that involves stretching the spine to relieve pressure on the spinal discs. It can be a very effective treatment to help relieve pain and symptoms for a variety of neck and back conditions. 

The treatment typically lasts for 15 to 35 minutes, depending on the patient's needs and the severity of their condition. Patients may require multiple sessions over several weeks to achieve the desired results.

Conditions Treated with Spinal Decompression

  • Herniated Discs: Spinal decompression can help relieve pressure on the spinal discs, which can reduce pain and inflammation associated with herniated discs.
     

  • Bulging Discs: Similar to herniated discs, spinal decompression can help alleviate the pressure on bulging discs and reduce associated pain and inflammation.
     

  • Sciatica: Sciatica is a condition where a nerve in the lower back is compressed, causing pain, numbness, and tingling in the leg. Spinal decompression can help reduce the pressure on the affected nerve and alleviate sciatica symptoms.
     

  • Degenerative Disc Disease: This condition is characterized by the breakdown of spinal discs, which can cause pain and stiffness in the back. Spinal decompression can help relieve pressure on the affected discs and reduce associated symptoms.
     

  • Facet Syndrome: Facet syndrome is a condition where the joints in the spine become inflamed and painful. Spinal decompression can help stretch and relax the affected joints, reducing pain and inflammation.
     

  • Spinal Stenosis: Spinal stenosis is a narrowing of the spinal canal, which can put pressure on the spinal cord and nerves. Spinal decompression can help alleviate the pressure on the affected areas, reducing pain and other symptoms.
