Decompression therapy is a non-invasive treatment that helps alleviate back pain by gently stretching the spine. This process changes the force and position of the spine, relieving pressure on the spinal discs. At St. Paul Chiropractic and Natural Health, we utilize advanced decompression therapy to provide relief for patients suffering from conditions such as herniated discs, sciatica, and degenerative disc disease.
How Decompression Therapy Works
During decompression therapy, you lie on a motorized table while a harness is attached around your pelvis and another around your trunk. The table then moves to gently stretch your spine. This stretching creates negative pressure within the discs, which can help retract herniated or bulging discs and promote the movement of water, oxygen, and nutrient-rich fluids into the discs so they can heal.
Benefits of Decompression Therapy
Decompression therapy offers numerous benefits for those dealing with chronic back pain. By reducing pressure on the spinal discs and nerves, it can significantly decrease pain and improve mobility. Additionally, this therapy helps enhance the health of spinal discs, making it a preventative measure against future back problems. At St. Paul Chiropractic and Natural Health, our decompression therapy aims to provide long-lasting relief and improve your overall spinal health.
Conditions Treated by Decompression Therapy
Decompression therapy is effective for a variety of spinal conditions. Patients with herniated or bulging discs often find significant relief as the therapy helps retract the displaced discs. It also benefits those with sciatica by reducing pressure on the sciatic nerve. Degenerative disc disease patients can experience pain reduction and improved disc health. The therapy is also helpful for those with facet joint syndrome and other spinal issues.
