Is Non-Surgical
Spinal Decompression
Right for You?
Non-surgical spinal decompression therapy is a gentle, non-invasive treatment designed to relieve back and neck pain by reducing pressure on the spinal discs and nerves. It involves the use of a specialized traction table or motorized device that gently stretches the spine in a controlled manner. This process creates negative pressure within the discs, helping to retract herniated or bulging discs, improve nutrient flow, and promote healing.
Spinal Decompression Therapy at 180 Wellness
At 180 Wellness, our spinal decompression therapy is designed to relieve pain and promote healing by addressing injuries caused by nerve compression from the spine or vertebral discs. This therapy gently stretches the spine, creating balanced pressure on the vertebrae and forming a vacuum effect between the discs. This process enhances the flow of essential nutrients, oxygen, and fluids to aid in the gradual healing of disc injuries, following a personalized treatment plan recommended by our doctor.
Intervertebral discs often struggle to heal due to constant pressure, even during rest. Spinal decompression helps by gently separating the affected spinal segments, reducing pressure within the discs and allowing for better circulation of nutrients essential for tissue repair. This natural rebuilding process supports long-term recovery and spinal health.
Additionally, by lowering intradiscal pressure, spinal decompression can help reposition the nucleus of a bulging or herniated disc back to its proper place. This relieves pressure on compressed nerve roots, effectively reducing pain, numbness, and discomfort, helping you regain mobility and quality of life.
Spinal Decompression Therapy is a safe, effective option for individuals seeking long-term relief from spinal conditions without the risks and recovery time associated with surgery.
What Makes Spinal Decompression Different
Ultimately, spinal decompression has emerged as a favorite form of treatment for back pain, disc issues, and other problems. It’s favored for being safe, gentle, consistent, and precise. That may sound like a lot to live up to, but patients often find lasting healing with expert decompression services.
Modern spinal decompression relies on advanced computer solutions, precise instruments, and patient feedback. Specialized traction machinery will exert steady but gentle force on your spine, slowly stretching it out. Pain is rare, and your back care team can work with you to make modifications as needed.
Chiropractors are typically very good with their hands. Yet it’s hard to beat the precision and consistency offered by a mechanized decompression table. Of course, chiropractors still play a huge role even when they are using the most advanced tools. Ultimately, the chiropractor will need to calibrate the decompression treatment. Further, other forms of chiropractic care can be deployed alongside decompression to increase its effectiveness.
