SPINAL DECOMPRESSION COLUMBUS, OH

Traction therapy, which relieves pressure on the spine, has been used to treat neck and back pain for decades. Spinal decompression therapy is an advanced type of traction therapy that can be adjusted based on your specific condition. Spinal decompression involves a gentle stretching of the spine that relieves back and neck pain and promotes spinal healing.

The vertebrae of our spines are separated by discs, which act as cushions. These gel-like cushions can be put under a lot of wear and tear over the years but spinal decompression therapy begins to open up the disc spaces again by stretching them and creating what’s called negative pressure inside the disc.

This creation of negative pressure brings fresh, nutrient-rich liquids and oxygen flowing into the spinal discs, replenishing the body with essential nutrients needed to promote healing and rejuvenation.

We want all our patients to feel at ease during their treatments. We’re here to tell you exactly what to expect during spinal decompression therapy in Westerville:

During your spinal decompression therapy, a strap is placed around your hips as you lay on a motorized traction table. The upper portion of the table remains still while the lower half slides back and forth, providing relaxation to the spine.

This traction table is controlled by our doctors through a computer so that we can adjust the treatment to fit your specific needs. These sessions usually last around 15-20 minutes.

This spinal stretching technique can provide instant relief in some cases, with most patients experiencing a significant reduction in chronic back and neck pain within 12 sessions.

At Westerville Chiropractic and Nutrition, we’ve used spinal decompression therapy to treat various pain-inducing conditions including:

• Neck and back pain
• Sciatica
• Degenerative disc disease
• Posterior facet syndrome (worn spinal joints)
• Injured spinal nerve roots
• Radiculopathy

Contrary to popular belief, relief from chronic back and neck pain doesn’t only come as a result of an invasive surgery. At Westerville Chiropractic and Nutrition, we’ve served patients who thought surgery was the only option — until they had spinal decompression therapy.

Spinal decompression therapy can help relieve your pressure and pain without the cost, risk, and significant recovery time that comes with surgery.

Another benefit of spinal decompression therapy is that it’s quite soothing, making it an overall stress reducer in addition to being a targeted treatment.
