What is Spinal Decompression Therapy?
When intervertebral discs are damaged and under constant pressure, healing becomes challenging. Spinal decompression, achieved through reduction of pressure inside the discs, promotes the influx of fluids, nutrients, and oxygen, thus aiding the healing of bulging or herniated discs.
All procedures are conducted while the patient remains fully clothed. For lumbar (low back) procedures, the patient is comfortably positioned on the table with pelvic restraints adjusted to secure the pelvis, and a comfortable securing system for the upper torso. The Patented Pelvic Tilt section electronically tilts to target specific spinal segments with precision and pain-free computer-controlled tension to gently distract the disc segments.
In cervical (neck) procedures, the cervical unit electronically tilts at the required angle to target specific cervical segments. Cervical Restraints are comfortably designed to capture the base of the patient’s skull for controlled distraction.
