Spinal decompression therapy is a nonsurgical means of relieving pain to the lower back and neck. This form of therapy is a spinal disc rehabilitation treatment that slowly and gently stretches the area of the spine while decompressing the discs. This technique often allows for pressure to be relieved from the nerve root and promotes repositioning of the bulging or herniated disc.

Spinal decompression combined with rehabilitation actually helps re-educate muscles, ligaments, and tendons, creating a healthier disc environment. Discs naturally remain healthy by activity, such as compression and decompression forces which you would get from activity such as walking.

The forces of spinal decompression work on the concept of gentle distraction therapy, the compression and decompression of the disc. During the decompression stage, a partial vacuum is formed that relieves the pressure between the vertebrate, allowing the disc to reshape back to its normal form. When the decompression is released, the pressure with-in the spinal column equalizes at a much quicker rate, relieving the pressures on the disc. Through compression and decompression, the tissue surrounding the disc can heal because this process also creates blood flow and oxygen to the injured area. The blood flow and oxygen send nutrition to the injured area allowing a faster recovery.

Chiropractors: Achieve Health Wholeness!

Chiropractic is a health care profession that focuses on disorders of the musculoskeletal system and the nervous system, and the effects of these disorders on general health.

Doctors of Chiropractic, often referred to as chiropractors, practice a drug-free, hands-on approach to health care that includes patient examination, diagnosis and treatment. Chiropractors have broad diagnostic skills and are trained to recommend therapeutic and rehabilitative exercises, as well as to provide nutritional, dietary and lifestyle counseling.

The most common therapeutic procedure performed by chiropractors is known as "spinal manipulation" or "chiropractic adjustment." The purpose is to restore joint mobility by manually applying a controlled force into joints that have become restricted in their movement as a result of a tissue injury. Tissue injury can be caused by a single traumatic event, such as improper lifting of a heavy object, or repetitive stresses, such as sitting in an awkward position with poor spinal posture for an extended period of time. The injured tissues undergo physical and chemical changes that can cause inflammation, pain, and diminished function for the sufferer. Manipulation, or adjustment of the affected joint and tissues, restores mobility, thereby alleviating pain and muscle tightness, and allowing tissues to heal.

In many cases, such as lower back pain, chiropractic care may be the primary method of treatment. When other medical conditions exist, chiropractic care may complement or support medical treatment by relieving the musculoskeletal aspects associated with the condition.
Chiropractors assess patients through clinical examination, laboratory testing, diagnostic imaging and other diagnostic interventions to determine whether chiropractic treatment is appropriate or not. If chiropractic care is not suitable for the patient's condition, chiropractors will readily refer patients to the appropriate health care provider.
