Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression Therapy
Helping You Find Relief From Back and Neck Pain
If you're struggling with chronic back pain, neck pain, sciatica, or pain that travels into your arms or legs, spinal decompression therapy may be an option as part of your personalized treatment plan.
At Brent Leone Chiropractic, every patient begins with a comprehensive consultation and examination to determine whether spinal decompression therapy is appropriate. Our goal is to reduce pain, improve movement, and help you return to the activities you enjoy.
What Is Spinal Decompression?
Spinal decompression therapy is a non-surgical treatment that uses a specialized table to gently apply controlled traction to the spine. The goal is to reduce pressure on spinal structures while improving mobility and comfort.
Treatment is customized based on your symptoms, examination findings, and overall health.
Many patients receive spinal decompression as part of a broader treatment plan that may also include chiropractic care, rehabilitation exercises, and other therapies when appropriate.
Conditions That May Benefit From Spinal Decompression
Following an examination, spinal decompression therapy may be considered for certain patients experiencing:
• Low back pain
• Neck pain
• Sciatica
• Herniated or bulging discs
• Degenerative disc disease
• Pain traveling into the arms or legs
• Chronic spinal discomfort
Not every patient is a candidate for spinal decompression therapy. A thorough evaluation helps determine whether it is appropriate for your condition.
How Does Spinal Decompression Work?
During treatment, you lie comfortably on a specialized decompression table while gentle, computer-controlled traction is applied to the spine.
The treatment is designed to create controlled stretching forces that may reduce pressure on spinal structures while encouraging improved movement and comfort.
Treatment plans are individualized based on your condition and your response to care.
