  • Spinal decompression is a noninvasive, effective treatment that allows your spinal discs to heal naturally.
  • The damage to your spinal disc heals without surgical intervention, which can cause further trauma and pain and involve huge expenses and long recovery times.
  • Rather than removing parts of the spine to create space for the discs to heal, spinal decompression uses a negative intradiscal pressure.
  • We offer a FREE Consultation with our medical professionals to determine if this innovative method of treating back and neck pain is right for you.

 

Spinal Decompression Can Help With

  • A herniated disc happens when some of the inner gel pushes out of the disc through a break or crack.
  • A bulging disc occurs when the disc bulges beyond the available space in the spinal canal.
  • A degenerated disc happens when the disc loses fluid or the exterior of the disc tears or cracks.
  • Sciatica is a painful condition that occurs when a disc herniation presses on nerve roots.
  • Disc degeneration is sometimes accompanied by bone spurs (osteophytes), small bone growths that protrude from the vertebrae.

 

We offer spinal decompression to restore your spinal discs to a healthy and operational condition. Spinal discs provide cushioning between the vertebrae in your spine. They have two parts, a tough round exterior made of collagen fibers, and an inner network of fibers contained in a protein gel. Your spine contains 23 of these discs. When any of these discs is damaged, you may develop a painful condition.

 

Spinal decompression works by gradually stretching and creating space in the spinal column. This relieves the pressure on your discs, allowing them to retract and also allowing spinal fluids to flow more freely. The flow of nutrients, water, and oxygen into the disc tissue promotes natural healing. Over a period of several weeks, you will be able to resume your normal daily activities.
