Seek Spinal Decompression for Herniated Discs
A herniated disc can cause inflammation, pain, numbness, tingling, and muscle weakness, making it hard to enjoy your normal daily activities. If symptoms of a herniated disc are preventing you from working, exercising, and spending time with family and friends, the chiropractors here at Denali Injury and Spine Center can help. Our chiropractors can offer spinal decompression in Anchorage to realign your spine, relieve pressure on your nerves, and restore mobility and range of motion.
What is Spinal Decompression Therapy?
Spinal decompression therapy is a safe, effective, non-invasive chiropractic care treatment designed to address symptoms of herniated discs, bone spurs and growths, and age-related disc degeneration. During a spinal decompression treatment, you will lie fully clothed on a comfortable, motorized traction table. One of our chiropractors will control the movement of the table using precise calculations done by a computer. As the table moves, your spine will be slowly and gently stretched, allowing misalignments to be corrected, pressure to be removed from the sciatic nerve, discs to move back in place, and oxygen and nutrients to reach the space between discs.
Am I a Good Candidate for Spinal Decompression?
You are a good candidate for spinal decompression therapy if you’re suffering from symptoms of a herniated disc, bone spur, bone growth, or age-related disc degeneration. You may have tried other treatment methods without success, and you may be prevented from living a normal, healthy life due to symptoms of your condition. You are not a good candidate for spinal decompression if you:
- Are pregnant
- Have undergone spinal fusion
- Have recently had back surgery that was ineffective or didn’t solve your symptoms
- Have spinal stenosis
- Have a spinal implant or artificial disc
Is Spinal Decompression Safe?
Spinal decompression is safe and effective. The procedure is gentle and non-invasive, and most patients experience no pain, discomfort, or negative side effects. Many patients find the procedure so relaxing that they fall asleep during it. Spinal decompression can be performed multiple times to offer you the most effective relief and highest chance of recovery.
