Nonsurgical Spinal Decompression Therapy

Spinal Decompression is a treatment option for helping relieve back pain or other issues. This treatment involves the use of a spinal decompression table to help relieve pressure on the spine. Spinal decompression works by gently stretching the spine, which helps to take pressure off of the discs and nerves which may help alleviate pain from many different issues.

This treatment is often used to help treat herniated discs, protruding discs, sciatica, spinal stenosis, and other forms of back pain. Depending on your specific case, we recommend doing a series of sessions with a combination of other forms of chiropractic treatment.

If you’re dealing with back discomfort, spinal decompression may help reduce pressure, support mobility, and help your back feel better again.

Spinal Decompression Treatment in Miami Lakes

Nonsurgical Spinal Decompression is a treatment option that helps gently stretch the spine. This helps to take pressure off of the discs and nerves in your back. During a Spinal Decompression treatment, you’ll lay on a special motorized table. The top half of the table remains fixed while the bottom half slowly moves, controlled by an advanced computer system.

Dr. Denis Chang fits you with a harness around your pelvis and another around your trunk, positioning you either face-up or face-down on the table, and customizes the treatment to your specific needs.

As your spine is stretched it takes pressure off the spinal discs — the gel-like cushions between the bones in your spine — by creating negative pressure in the disc. That negative space gives herniated and bulging discs room where they may retract, helping take pressure off nerves and other structures in your spine. This can also help increase the movement of nutrient-rich fluids, water, and oxygen into the discs to support healing.

What Does Spinal Decompression Treat?

Herniated Discs

When the disc between your body and spine is hurt, it’s called a herniated disc. It can be hard to move because the pain makes you want to stay still. When you have a herniated disc, it is important to rest and take care of yourself until the pain goes away.

Bulging Discs

A bulging disc is a disc that has been injured and is protruding out from its normal position. This can cause pain, numbness, and tingling in the affected area.

Degenerative Disc Disease

Degenerative disc disease is a condition that affects the discs in your spine. The discs can become weak and thin over time, which can lead to pain and other problems.

Sciatica

Sciatica is when there is a pain in your lower back that sometimes extends down your buttocks and legs. Sometimes this can happen when a person has a herniated disc, bulging discs, or degenerative disc disease.

Spinal Stenosis

Spinal stenosis is a condition that happens when the spinal column becomes narrower. This can cause problems like pain, numbness, and tingling.

Does Spinal Decompression Hurt?

Spinal Decompression Therapy is generally a gentle and soothing treatment that is typically painless in most cases. Some patients with significant disc damage may experience minor discomfort during their first few treatments.

How Many Sessions Will I Need?

The number of sessions you will need will depend on your individual condition. In some cases, you may only need a few sessions to see results. In others, you may undergo spinal decompression therapy for several weeks or months. Dr. Denis Chang will work with you to build a treatment plan for your specific needs.
