Spinal Decompression & Chiropractic Valuable for Reducing Back Pain

Back pain is a common problem that affects many patients of all ages. There are a number of different causes of back pain, but one of the most routine is our spinal discs. As we get older, our spinal discs no longer have their flexibility and that results in pain. Luckily, there is a technique 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 pain. Spinal decompression therapy is usually done on an outpatient basis, which means you can go home after each session.

How Does Spinal Decompression Therapy Work?

The technique starts 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 less. As a result; your pain is decreased.

Spinal decompression therapy sessions last about 30 minutes and are usually done 2-3 times per week. A lot of people start to see results after about 8-12 weeks of treatment.

If you’re suffering from back pain and want a higher chance of getting relief, 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. Give Dr. Kasprack a call today at (662) 890-0012 to schedule an appointment.
