Non-surgical Spinal Decompression
If you have lasting back pain and other related symptoms, you know how disruptive to your life it can be. You may be unable to think of little else except finding relief. Some people turn to spinal decompression therapy either surgical or non-surgical.
Here's what you need to know to help decide whether it might be right for you.
Non-surgical spinal decompression is a type of motorized traction that may help relieve back pain. Spinal decompression works by gently stretching the spine. That changes the force and position of the spine. This change takes pressure off the spinal discs, which are gel-like cushions between the bones in your spine, by creating negative pressure in the disc.
As a result, bulging or herniated discs may retract, taking pressure off nerves and other structures in your spine. This in turn, helps promote movement of water, oxygen, and nutrient-rich fluids into the discs so they can heal.
Doctors have used non-surgical spinal decompression to treat
Back or neck pain or sciatica, which is pain, weakness, or tingling that extends down the leg
Bulging or herniated discs or degenerative disc disease
Worn spinal joints (called posterior facet syndrome)
Injured or diseased spinal nerve roots
The latest non-surgical equipment can help you get relief. There is a patient success rate for many patients up to 83% using state-of-the-art equipment such as the DRX-9000.
