Spinal Decompression Therapy

An Overview of Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression Therapy:

Non-surgical spinal decompression therapy is an effective treatment for:

• Herniated or bulging disc(s) 
• Degenerative disc disease 
• Facet syndrome 
• Sciatica 
• Post-surgical patients without metallic fusion

Do you have a herniated disc, multiple herniated discs, sciatica, degenerative disc disease, facet syndrome, or any other type of spinal problem? Is your doctor suggesting surgery, pain management, or physical therapy? Have you tried Chiropractic and just did not get enough relief? Come to Circle Chiropractic and try out non-surgical spinal decompression.

Spinal decompression is FDA cleared and has been clinically proven with an 86% success rate with the pain and symptoms associated with herniated and/or bulging discs …even after failed surgery.

Research indicates the disc is responsible for a significant number of lumbar/leg pain and neck/arm pain syndromes. Compression increases intradiscal pressure leading to annular compromise and possible extrusion of nuclear material.

Spinal decompression therapy, in conjunction with additional therapies, effectively relieves the pain and disability resulting from disc injury and degeneration, by helping the body to repair damaged discs and reversing damaging changes in nerves. Spinal decompression addresses various aspects of disc pain and disease through non-surgical decompression of intervertebral discs. Studies verify the significant reduction of intradiscal pressures which result in the non-surgical decompression of the disc and nerve root. Conventional traction has never demonstrated these benefits; on the contrary - many traction devices can actually increase intradiscal pressure by aggravating spinal muscular spasms.  Our spinal computerized decompression table is designed to apply distraction tension to the patient’s spine without eliciting reflex paravertebral muscle contractions. By significantly reducing intradiscal pressure, spinal decompression promotes retraction of the herniation into the disc.

The most recent trial found that reduction of disc herniation ranged between 10% and 90% depending on the number of sessions performed, while disc patching and healing was evident in all cases. The most recent clinical study of 219 patients has showed that spinal decompression therapy provided an immediate resolution of symptoms for 86% of the participants, while 84% remained pain-free 90 days post-treatment. Our spinal decompression program is extremely comprehensive and may include spinal decompression, physiotherapy, chiropractic, infrared therapy, and spinal rehabilitation.
