How Does Spinal Decompression Work?
During spinal decompression therapy, our skilled chiropractors use a specialized table to gently stretch and decompress the spine. This controlled traction helps relieve pressure on the spinal discs and facet joints, allowing herniated or bulging discs to retract. By creating negative pressure within the discs, spinal decompression promotes the movement of water, oxygen, and other nutrient-rich fluids into the discs, supporting the healing process.
Conditions Treated
This therapy is highly effective in treating a variety of spinal conditions, including:
Herniated Discs
Relieves pressure on the nerves affected by disc herniation.
Bulging Discs
Helps retract bulging discs to reduce compression on spinal nerves.
Sciatica
Alleviates pain and numbness caused by compression of the sciatic nerve.
Degenerative Disc Disease
Slows the progression and alleviates symptoms of disc degeneration.
Facet Syndrome
Eases pain and stiffness caused by arthritis in the spinal joints.
