How Does It Work?
Spinal decompression therapy uses the gentle mechanical stretching of your spine to help relieve back pain, shifting pressure off the spinal discs by creating space between vertebrae. This negative space leaves room for better blood flow, allowing vital nutrients, oxygen and water needed for tissue health and repair to travel easier, and it can create a vacuum that pulls bulging or herniated discs back into place.
At Kennedy Avenue Chiropractic, our chiropractor can perform spinal decompression both manually or with a specially designed traction table that helps our specialists apply steady and appropriate pressure and avoid muscle spasms for a more effective and comfortable treatment.
How Can It Help Me?
Spinal decompression therapy can be used as a nonsurgical solution for a number of conditions, including lower back pain, neck pain, and radiant pain in the arms and legs. Dr. Sprouse can also use it to address:
- Sciatica
- Spinal stenosis
- Degenerative disc disease
- Herniated or bulging discs
What Should I Expect During Treatment?
When you come in for your spinal decompression treatment, Dr. Sprouse will ask you to lie comfortably on our decompression table while one of our team members helps stabilize your body with a harness and support. We will then use our decompression computer to create a zero-gravity effect by gently pulling on your body and providing space between your vertebrae. This space will improve circulation and provide room for misaligned spinal discs to return to the correct position in your spine.
Each spinal decompression treatment will take 25 to 40 minutes, and our chiropractor may recommend that they are used in tandem with ArthroStim adjustments, spinal rehabilitation treatments, massage therapy or orthotics. Our team will help you find the right combination of treatments best suited to address your specific needs. You may even find relief in a single session.
If you have any remaining questions about nonsurgical spinal decompression or would like to schedule your appointment with Dr. Sprouse, call or visit our office today.
