Spinal Decompression Therapy
Spinal Decompression Therapy
Spinal decompression therapy is a non-surgical traction technique that gently stretches the spine to create more space between the vertebrae. By easing pressure on discs and surrounding nerves, this approach is commonly used to help manage conditions like disc bulges, sciatica, and chronic low back or neck pain, and is often considered by patients looking for an alternative to surgery.
How It Fits Into Your Care
At Zeren Health, decompression therapy is offered as part of a broader chiropractic approach. Our doctors of chiropractic, Dr. Mitchell Zeren and Dr. Paul Maselli, incorporate spinal traction alongside other hands-on techniques to support spinal health and mobility.
Complementary On-Site Care
- Manual Therapy & Joint Mobilization — hands-on techniques that work alongside decompression to restore joint motion.
- Rehabilitative Exercise Equipment — guided strengthening exercises that help maintain progress between decompression sessions.
- Digital X-Ray Imaging — on-site imaging that helps guide safe, informed treatment planning.
When It May Be Recommended
Patients often seek spinal decompression after experiencing persistent back or neck discomfort, disc-related symptoms, or nerve pain that limits daily activity. It is typically used as one part of a broader recovery plan tailored to each patient's condition.
