NON-SURGICAL THERAPY
Spinal Decompression Therapy
Non-surgical spinal decompression therapy gently stretches the spine to relieve pressure on compressed discs and spinal nerves. This FDA-cleared treatment promotes nutrient flow and healing to damaged discs without surgery, injections, or medication.
Spinal decompression therapy uses a computerized table to apply precise, controlled traction to the spine. By creating negative pressure within the disc, the treatment draws herniated or bulging disc material back toward the center, relieving nerve compression and promoting the flow of oxygen, water, and nutrients essential for disc healing.
How It Works
During each session, you lie comfortably on the decompression table while the system gently cycles between stretching and relaxation phases. The computer adjusts force and angle based on your specific condition. Most patients find the treatment relaxing — many fall asleep during sessions.
What to Expect
A typical decompression protocol involves 15 to 25 sessions over four to six weeks, depending on the severity of your condition. Each session lasts approximately 30 to 45 minutes. Many patients experience noticeable relief within the first few sessions, though full healing requires completing the recommended course of treatment.
Spinal decompression is often combined with other corrective care techniques — including adjustments, therapeutic exercises, and lifestyle modifications — for the best long-term outcomes.
