Spinal Decompression Therapy is designed to relieve pressure on joints, nerves, and intervertebral discs. It can be utilized in the treatment of numerous pain issues, optimizing a person’s health and increasing function. Spinal Decompression Treatment starts with a consultation with a phoenix chiropractic doctor who fully evaluates the patient with a history, and detailed musculoskeletal examination.

The patient may need imaging studies prior to commencing treatment. As soon as it is established that the person is safe to commence decompression, the person is positioned either supine (face up) or prone (face down) on the treatment table according to the disease problem being treated. Some times, placing the person in one position can be more painful than the other so it is a great option to have.

If the patient is receiving lumbar spinal decompression, the patient holds on to hand grips and a pelvic harness is placed around the patient to apply the intermittent traction. If the individual is undergoing neck spine decompression, the person is set up with their torso elevated a bit and neck harness applies traction under the mastoid region. The elevation decreases shear forces and prevents the patient from being pulled off the table (the forces are fairly gentle).

During the procedure, the table is stretched apart as the intermittent traction occurs. Decompression does not involve continuous spinal traction, it is intermittent traction which prevents the muscless surrounding the spine from guarding and spasming. Disc pressure is relieved and within the disc negative pressure is created. Blood flow is increased allowing additional oxygen and nutrients to inflow, providing substances for healing of the damaged areas.

Spinal nerves that get pinched coming out from the spinal column, from either a disk herniation or spinal stenosis, can achieve relief as the decompression treatment provides extra room for these nerves to exit.

Spinal decompression therapy is safe and can be very effective for short and long term chronic back and neck pain. A series of treatments is the norm and can give lasting pain reduction.
