Spinal Decompression

Sciatica, degenerative discs, bulging and herniated discs, and spinal stenosis are frustrating and painful conditions that were difficult to manage in the past. Often patients were left with the choice between heavy medications or surgery. This has recently changed because of innovations that combined computer automation, traction, and new knowledge in biomechanics. The end result is Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression.

Spinal Decompression is an advanced, state-of-the-art, painless therapy for treating serious low back problems with surgery. The treatment is not only painless, but is in fact quite comfortable and relaxing as well.

How does spinal decompression work?

In its simplest form, non-surgical spinal decompression is a computer-driven, automated way to stretch the spine. The spinal discs comprise one third of the length of our spines. As we age, our discs and spinal joints become compressed and stiff. With injuries and aging, the discs can bulge or lose water content and this causes us to shrink in height. This can lead to the stooped posture that contributes to chronic back and neck pain, compression on the heart and lungs, advanced degenerative arthritis, and other skeletal signs of premature aging. 

Compression of the spinal discs and joints is one of the major causes of back pain and contributes to degenerative spinal stenosis, the pain from herniated discs, mechanical back pain and other related spine disorders. Other treatments of lower back pain, including medication, injections, chiropractic, massage and exercise fail in certain cases. This is where decompression therapy is used as an adjunct. The results can be spectacular.
