Spinal Decompression Therapy at Ryan Chiropractic

At Ryan Chiropractic, we specialize in effective, non-surgical treatment options for spine-related concerns, including spinal decompression therapy. This advanced service is designed to relieve pressure on spinal discs and nerves, helping patients reduce pain and improve mobility. It can be especially beneficial for those affected by herniated discs, sciatica, or degenerative disc disease.

What Is Spinal Decompression Therapy?

This therapy uses a traction-based, computerized table to gently stretch the spine, creating a slight negative pressure within spinal discs. This encourages retraction of herniated disc material and relieves pressure on surrounding nerves, often resulting in reduced pain and improved function. Sessions are fully clothed and comfortable, with no surgical intervention required.

Who Can Benefit?

Spinal decompression may be an effective option if you’re experiencing:

  • Pain from herniated or bulging discs

  • Symptoms of sciatica, such as pain or numbness radiating into the legs

  • Discomfort from degenerative disc disease

  • Chronic low or mid-back pain that hasn’t responded well to conservative therapy

What Conditions Does It Treat?

This therapy is often used to treat cases of:

  • Herniated or bulging spinal discs

  • Pinched nerves

  • Spinal arthritis and spinal stenosis

  • Sciatica

  • Chronic disc degeneration

  • Chronic neck and back pain

Potential Benefits of Spinal Decompression Therapy

The goal of spinal decompression therapy is to provide an affordable, non-invasive treatment that has been shown to improve:

  • Pain reduction from decompressed discs and relieved nerve pressure

  • Enhanced spinal mobility and posture

  • Faster recovery time compared to more invasive treatments

  • Reduced reliance on medication or surgery

Is It Right For You?

Although spinal decompression therapy is considered safe and gentle, it’s not right for everyone. It may not be suitable for individuals with severe osteoporosis, nerve damage, spinal fractures, metal implants, or certain conditions found on imaging. Dr. Ryan will only recommend this treatment if he believes it will be both safe and truly beneficial for your specific condition.
