Spinal Decompression Therapy

The Spinal Decompression Table

A Spinal Decompression Table is designed to alleviate the underlying problems that cause the pain and facilitate the natural healing of spinal discs. With precise and painless controlled tension, the specific disc segment is gently distracted to reduce the pressure inside. The Decompression Table comfortably and accurately increases intersegmental disc space, providing non-surgical decompression of the discs. Tears in the disc annulus can be repaired, allowing sufficient fluids and nutrients to be re-introduced into the nucleus to reverse the disc degeneration, bulging discs, and collapse resulting from an injury. Rehydration of the disc nucleus will restore disc height, which relieves the pressure on inflamed facet joints. 2/3 It is a medical fact that damaged discs seldom heal independently, as they are constantly under pressure. The Decompression Table uses clinically proven principles to reduce the pressure inside the discs. Decompression promotes the transfer of fluids, nutrients, and oxygen back inside the discs and results in the retraction of bulging or herniated discs, providing relief of nerve pressure and pain. According to recent clinical trials, utilizing MRI, pre, and post-treatment on a similar table, disc herniations were reduced by 10% to 90%. In addition, patching and healing of the annulus were also evident.

Benefits of Spinal Decompression Therapy

The Spinal Decompression Table

A key component of this therapy is the spinal decompression table. Patients lie on the table, and a harness is placed around their hips. The table then gently stretches the spine in a controlled manner. The treatment sessions typically last between 30 to 45 minutes and are conducted over several weeks, depending on the severity of the condition and the individual’s response to the therapy.
