Decompression
Therapy

A Highly Successful,
Non-Surgical Alternative Procedure for Relieving Low Back, Neck, Arm, &
Leg Pain
What is Decompression Therapy?
Decompression Therapy is a non-surgical procedure that effectively treats
disabling low back, neck, and radiating leg, & arm pain. Decompression
Therapy effectively relieves pain associated with disc herniation, degenerative
discs, posterior facet syndromes, due to decompression of spinal discs and facet
joints, that is, unloading due to distraction and positioning.
Decompression Therapy effectively enhances the healing process and renders
quick, effective and amazing pain relief that enables most patients to return to
a more active lifestyle.
Research to develop this procedure was conducted by prominent physicians,
engineers and technicians at major teaching hospitals.
Is Decompression Therapy right for you?
Decompression Therapy is an effective treatment for patients suffering
herniated or degenerated discs as well as posterior facet syndrome, which
respond well to the distraction. Certain conditions such as fractures, gross
osteoporosis, and tumors are not candidates for this treatment.
Decompression Therapy begins with a series of sessions typically 3 times per
week. Each session is approximately 8 - 12 minutes. Following each session,
electrical muscle stimulation is applied to help relax your muscles and
ligaments.
After treatment, your doctor may prescribe specific exercises designed to help
you regain control and strengthen the co-contractor muscles that are responsible
for stabilization.
Decompression Therapy is administered to patients fully clothed either face down
or face up on the table.
Clinical studies suggest De-compression Therapy provides a majority of qualified
candidates with initial relief within a few sessions. Maximum benefit is usually
achieved within 8-15 sessions.
