Spinal Decompression Therapy is stretching the spine using a traction table or similar device. In this type of traction therapy, the spine is stretched and relaxed intermittently in a controlled manner. This process removes pressure from the disc itself and it thought to have two potential benefits: Pulls the herniated or bulging disc material back into the disc and promotes the passage of healing nutrients into the disc and fosters a better healing environment.
Decompression therapy is normally a series of 15-30 treatments, each lasting 30-40 minutes over a four to six week period. Sessions may also include additional treatment modalities such as cold and/or heat therapy, ultrasound or electric stimulation. These sessions take place in the chiropractic office while the patient lies on the motorized table.
While spinal decompression therapy may be recommended as a potential treatment for a variety of lower back pain, it is needs to be a decision made between the patient and the doctor. At Chiropractic Rehab and Neurology we use the Lordex system for decompression therapy. Each session is administered by a member of our clinical staff and our guest find the experience relaxing and painless. Lordex guests have been able to enjoy a clinical success rate of 86% for favorable treatment, greatly enhancing their overall quality of life.
