Services > Spinal Decompression
Spinal decompression therapy is designed to gently relieve pressure on compressed spinal discs and irritated nerves. At Neck & Back Pain Specialists, this therapy is used as part of a personalized care plan to help reduce pain, restore movement, and support long-term spine health using natural, non-invasive treatment options.
If you’re dealing with chronic back pain, disc injuries, or nerve-related discomfort that keeps returning, spinal decompression may help your body heal more effectively and comfortably.
Many patients seek spinal decompression after trying treatments that only provided short-term relief. It’s common for pain to ease for a short time, only to return days later and disrupt daily routines again.
Patients often come to us struggling with ongoing challenges like difficulty standing, walking, sleeping, working comfortably, or staying active with their family. Some feel frustrated after trying multiple treatments without long-lasting improvement, while others worry about being pushed toward expensive or aggressive procedures before exploring safer options.
Spinal disc problems and nerve compression can affect more than just comfort. These issues can limit mobility, reduce quality of life, and make simple tasks feel exhausting. When symptoms continue returning or worsen over time, it’s often a sign that the underlying spinal pressure needs to be properly addressed.
Spinal decompression works by gently stretching the spine in a controlled and precise way. This process helps relieve pressure from discs, joints, and nerves while improving circulation and nutrient flow to injured areas.
Benefits of spinal decompression may include:
• Reduced pressure on herniated or bulging discs
• Relief from nerve-related symptoms such as sciatica, tingling, or numbness
• Improved spinal mobility and flexibility
• Support for natural healing of damaged disc tissue
• Reduced muscle tension caused by spinal stress
• A comfortable, non-surgical alternative to invasive procedures
This therapy is carefully integrated with other supportive treatments when needed to help patients experience stronger and longer-lasting results.
Your care begins with a detailed evaluation to determine whether spinal decompression is appropriate for your condition. This assessment allows the doctor to design a safe and effective treatment plan tailored specifically to you.
Typical decompression care includes:
• Comprehensive consultation and spinal evaluation
• Review of symptoms, movement limitations, and medical history
• Customized decompression therapy sessions designed for comfort and precision
• Integration with supportive therapies when beneficial, such as therapeutic exercise or chiropractic care
• Ongoing progress monitoring and treatment adjustments as needed
Treatment sessions are typically relaxing and comfortable, allowing patients to rest while gentle decompression therapy is performed.
