Why consider spinal decompression?

If you are searching for an alternative, yet effective, back pain treatment to surgery, then spinal decompression is among the viable options to consider. Spinal decompression treats herniated discs with the help of a specially-designed traction table on which patients lie down to receive treatment. The therapy enables chiropractors to treat disc injuries gradually, yet effectively.

Which spinal conditions are treated by spinal decompression?

People who suffer from herniated discs, bulging discs, sciatica, foraminal stenosis, spondylosis, pinched nerves, and disc protrusion can benefit from spinal decompression treatments.

How does spinal decompression work?

At NY Chiropractic, a patient lays down comfortably on the special decompression table and is connected to several harnesses along their body.  The harnesses connect to a computer used by the doctor to stretch the spine, and a space is created for the compressed discs to move. Once the spine is stretched, pressure is released from the affected area, and a vacuum is created to help the discs return to their normal state.

How long will the treatment last?

The length of treatment usually depends on the type of spinal condition; however, it tends to range from 15 to 35 visits to the chiropractor. The patient will undergo treatment for about 30 minutes each visit.

How much does spinal decompression cost?

The overall cost of undergoing spinal decompression also varies depending on the type of spinal condition; however, it usually ranges from $2,000 to 5,000.
