Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression
A Gentle, Non-Surgical Approach to Back & Neck Pain
Non-surgical spinal decompression is a specialized therapy designed to gently stretch and unload targeted areas of the spine. At New Leaf Chiropractic Wellness Center, spinal decompression may be incorporated into a personalized treatment plan for patients experiencing certain types of back pain, neck pain, disc-related conditions, and radiating discomfort.
Using specialized decompression equipment, treatment applies controlled forces to the spine while you remain comfortably positioned on the treatment table.
Every patient's condition is different, which is why we begin with an evaluation to determine whether spinal decompression is appropriate for your symptoms, needs, and goals.
What Conditions May Spinal Decompression Be Used For?
Following an appropriate evaluation, spinal decompression may be considered for patients experiencing conditions or symptoms such as:
- Herniated or bulging discs
- Degenerative disc conditions
- Lower back pain
- Neck pain
- Sciatica and radiating leg discomfort
- Certain types of nerve-related symptoms
- Disc-related pain
- Spinal stiffness and limited mobility
Part of a Comprehensive Approach
When appropriate, spinal decompression can be combined with chiropractic care, therapeutic exercise, and rehabilitation as part of an individualized treatment plan.
Comfortable Treatment Sessions
Patients remain lying on the treatment table throughout the session while the decompression equipment performs the controlled treatment.
Non-Invasive Treatment
Spinal decompression provides a conservative treatment option that does not involve surgery, incisions, or injections
Customized to the Patient
Treatment settings can be adjusted according to your condition, comfort level, and the area of the spine being addressed.
Targeted Spinal Treatment
Decompression allows controlled forces to be directed toward specific areas of the cervical or lumbar spine.
How Does Spinal Decompression Work?
During treatment, you'll lie on a specialized decompression table while the equipment applies a controlled pulling force to the targeted area of your spine.
The amount and pattern of force can be customized based on your evaluation and treatment plan.
Depending on your condition, spinal decompression may be used alongside chiropractic adjustments, therapeutic exercise, rehabilitation, and other conservative treatments.
At New Leaf, we look at your overall spinal and musculoskeletal function rather than relying on decompression as a one-size-fits-all treatment.
