Disc pain? Consider Non Surgical Spinal Decompression
Wednesday, February 17, 2010
Many patients experience herniated discs or pinched nerves over the course of their lifetime. It is often the result of an injury or trauma to the spine and when this happens, it can be very painful.
Non-surgical spinal decompression is a revolutionary new technology used primarily to treat disc injuries in the neck and in the low back. This treatment option is very safe and uses precise distraction forces over time to gently separate the vertebrae from each other. This creates a sort of vacuum that moves the bulging or herniated disk away from the nerve. It happens only microscopically each time, but cumulatively, over four to six weeks, the results are quite dramatic.
In addition, the decompression therapy cycles water and nutrients to the inside of the discs which helps the tissue heal.
Patients are comfortable throughout the treatment. If you have questions about Non surgical spinal decompression or would like to know if you are a candidate for this treatment, please call our office at 207.699.5600
