What Does Spinal Decompression Therapy Involve?

Spinal decompression therapy is a chiropractic treatment that is used to relieve back and leg pain. For this procedure, a traction table is used to stretch the spine, which relieves pressure on the discs that cushion the vertebrae. The entire process is generally painless. At most, patients might feel a slight stretching sensation.  Here at Connetquot Chiropractic, we offer spinal decompression treatment on Long Island for our patients.

 


Overview of the spinal decompression procedure.

 

  • For this procedure, patients are clothed and usually strapped into a traction table at the hips. This table is motorized.


  • You will feel a slight stretching sensation during the treatment. For most patients, this will not be painful.


  • The entire session should not last more than one hour. However, multiple spinal decompression treatments might be necessary.

 

  • Treatments can be completed multiple times a week or over the course of a month. Treatment frequency will depend on your situation.



Why is this treatment used?


There are many reasons that chiropractors will use spinal decompression therapy. Some of these reasons include.

 

  • To reduce pain that is situated in the back, neck, and legs.


  • To allow for more blood to flow to the back, leg, and neck, providing additional nutrients to the affected areas.

 

  • Relieve any undue pressure exerted on the discs that cushion your vertebrae.

 

  • Provide a relaxing and pain-free treatment option for those suffering from various conditions.


  • Offer a drug-free treatment option to those that cannot or do not wish to employ substances in their therapy.

 

 

If you are looking for a non-invasive, drug-free spinal treatment for pain in the back, neck, or legs, decompression treatment on Long Island is a fantastic alternative.
