​What is non-surgical spinal decompression?

Non-surgical spinal decompression is a non-invasive treatment option for patients who suffer from neck and back problems such as bulging or herniated discs, degenerative disc disease, facet syndrome, and more.

 

What does it do?

Non-surgical spinal decompression involves having the patient lie on a specialized table. The

patient will be connected to a machine that gently stretches the spine, rhythmically pulling and releasing, alleviating pressure on discs, joints, and connective tissues. This pressure change allows disc bulges and herniations to be pulled back into the disc space, promoting restoration of oxygen and nutrient rich fluids (blood flow) into the disc so they can heal.

​

Who is a good candidate to consider decompression?

Patients who have bulging or herniated discs, degenerative disc disease, facet syndrome, chronic neck or back pain not responding to other interventions/treatment, and/or failed previous spinal surgery.
