Spinal Decompression & Chiropractic Therapy Effective for Lumbar Pain in Gadsden
Back pain is a common problem that affects many patients of all ages. There are several different causes of back pain, but one of the most frequent is our spinal discs. As we get older, our spinal discs no longer have their flexibility and that results in discomfort. Thankfully, there is a method available that can help – spinal decompression therapy.
Understanding Spinal Decompression Therapy
Spinal decompression therapy is a non-surgical treatment method for back discomfort that uses traction to stretch the spine. This helps take the pressure off of your spinal discs and relieves the discomfort. Spinal decompression therapy is mostly done on an outpatient basis, meaning you can go home after each session.
How Does Spinal Decompression Therapy Work?
The method begins with you lying down on a table. The table will then slowly and gently stretch your spine. This stretching action generates negative pressure within your discs, which causes them to bulge and herniate not as much. The result; your pain is alleviated.
Spinal decompression therapy sessions last about 30 minutes and are ordinarily done 2-3 times weekly. Most folks start to feel results after about 8-12 weeks of treatment.
If you’re suffering from back pain and would like a better probability of recovering, spinal decompression may be a good treatment option for you. This therapy uses traction to stretch the spine and relieve pressure on the discs, which can help reduce pain.
