Chronic back pain can disrupt your daily life, making even the simplest activities unbearable. If you suffer from conditions like herniated discs, sciatica, or degenerative disc disease, you may feel like surgery is your only option. However, non-surgical spinal decompression therapy offers a safe, effective alternative for pain relief—without the risks and recovery time of surgery.

What Is Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression?

Non-surgical spinal decompression is a gentle, motorized traction therapy that stretches the spine to relieve pressure on compressed discs and nerves. This FDA-cleared treatment helps create space between vertebrae, promoting natural healing and reducing pain caused by spinal conditions.

How Does Spinal Decompression Work?

During a session, the patient lies comfortably on a specialized decompression table. A computer-controlled system applies a precise, gradual stretching force to the spine. This process:
✅ Creates negative pressure within spinal discs, allowing herniated or bulging discs to retract.
✅ Increases blood flow and oxygen to the affected area, promoting healing.
✅ Relieves pressure on pinched nerves, reducing pain, tingling, and numbness.

Each session lasts 15 to 30 minutes, and most patients undergo a series of treatments over several weeks to achieve the best results.

What Conditions Can It Help?

Spinal decompression therapy is commonly used for:
✔ Herniated & Bulging Discs – Helps discs return to their normal position.
✔ Degenerative Disc Disease – Reduces pressure and promotes disc hydration.
✔ Sciatica – Eases nerve compression causing pain, numbness, and tingling.
✔ Spinal Stenosis – Creates space in the spinal canal to relieve pressure.
✔ Chronic Back & Neck Pain – Provides long-term relief without surgery or medication.
