Address pain, inflammation, injuries, infection and accelerate healing.

What is Spinal Decompression?

Spinal Decompression is the only natural way to heal a disc injury. Most commonly disc bulges and disc herniations. These are often caused by accidents or traumatic injuries as opposed to repetitive/overuse injuries.

How does it work?
A disc bulge or herniation can be visualized on an MRI or CT scan. Think of it like someone stepping on a fun-sized candy bar. The contents are squished outward due to the pressure. This pressure if constant due to the injury and can cause severe pain. Spinal Decompression utilizes a specialized table that will gradually stretch the area, creating space (negative pressure) for the disc contents to return to and allows the disc to hydrate. This process over time will allow the disc to heal which relieves the pressure and often eliminates or significantly reduces the symptoms.

Why we use it:
We've found an increase in the number of patients that have suffered disc injuries and chiropractic care alone was often not sufficient to get the results our patients deserved. Many times these people would often eventually and desperately turn to surgery which can be ineffective, painful and extremely invasive. The procedure has about an 80% success rate making it extremely cost-effective compared to the alternatives.

"Decompression was a life saver. I was in incredible pain and had numbness and tingling going down my leg. It is totally gone and has not returned. I'm back to playing with my kids and my dog again!!!"
– J.H.
