07 Aug Spinal Decompression
Spinal Decompression Therapy is a non-surgical therapy to relieve back pain and other problems associated with spinal disc injuries. SDT is an alternative FDA approved treatment option that has shown excellent results.
Spinal Decompression therapy treats many conditions including; bulging discs, herniated discs, degenerative disc disease, pinched nerves, sciatica, and arm pain or leg pain. Poor posture, poor body mechanics, repetitive stress and acute injury can cause you undue stress to your spines discs and joints.
Compressed disc lead to two major problems:
1. Buldges/Herniations which can press on a nerve
2. Poor circulation from the restriction of nutrient flow (which is needed to heal)
Spinal Decompression Therapy is non-invasive and provides gentle decompression of the disc through the use of a decompression table. You are strapped to the table so that as the table moves it applies a distraction force to the targeted area of the spine (the compressed disc). A computer controls the distraction force which is applied in between periods of relaxation. This gently pulls the spine apart elongating it and creating a small vacuum between the vertebrae.
