What to Expect During Treatment

If you’ve never had this therapy, you may wonder what to expect. Spinal decompression is a gentle, non-invasive modality performed on a specialized, computerized table. Here’s how it works:

  • Custom settings: We adjust the table’s settings based on your specific condition.
  • Targeted traction: Comfortable straps are placed around your body to target the affected disc.
  • Gentle stretching: The table applies a controlled, rhythmic stretching motion to reduce spinal pressure.
  • Relaxation period: Sessions last 15 to 17 minutes, followed by a short rest period.
  • Additional therapy: Many patients receive electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) or interferential therapy afterward to help relax muscles and enhance results.

Frequently Asked Questions

How soon will I feel relief?

One of the particularly appealing benefits of the therapy is that some patients notice relief after just one session. Some others may require a series of treatments to experience lasting improvements. Most people begin to feel noticeable changes within one to six visits, depending on their condition and severity of symptoms.

Is this therapy painful?

No, spinal decompression is considered to be painless. Most patients feel a gentle stretching sensation in the spine, which can be relaxing and relieving. Some may experience mild soreness after the first few sessions, kind of like starting a new exercise routine.
