Spinal Decompression Therapy

Decompression Therapy is a non-invasive procedure that was developed for the treatment of lower back pain caused by disc herniations and degenerative disc disease. The process is effective in relieving low back pain by enlarging intradiscal space, reducing herniation, strengthening outer ligaments to help move herniated areas back into place, and reversing high intradiscal pressures through application of negative pressure. Treatments are often pain relieving and can be so relaxing that patients often fall asleep!

Spinal decompression with the DRX 9000 is used to heal disc bulges, disc herniations, degenerative disc disease, facet syndrome, sciatica and spinal stenosis.

Why Spinal Decompression?

Spinal discs do not have a blood supply and therefore a therapeutic way for them to get nutrition, oxygen and remove waste products is by Spinal Decompression.

Where is Spinal Decompression performed exactly?

Essentially, it is the spinal bones above and below the disc that squish like a sponge and release fluid (nourishment) onto the disc.

When to get a Spinal Decompression?

When a disc is herniated (picture a squished jelly doughnut with the jelly seeping out the side), immense pain ensues due to mass inflammation of the spinal nerve soaked in this jelly.

At this point, Spinal Decompression should be considered especially when other treatments have not achieved desirable results.

How does Spinal Decompression Work?

Healing occurs by a process known as Imbibition, which is similar to a sponge being compressed and released.
