What Brings About Discs to Slip?

The spine is made up of a chain of bones called the vertebrae. The front section of each individual vertebrae is called the vertebral body. Between each vertebrae are soft spinal discs that have a hard, multilayered casing and a gel-like center, named the nucleus pulposus.

These discs are what permit the spine to be flexible and let us lean forward or turn our upper body back and forth. Our discs also absorb shocks that are transferred to the spine while jumping or running, for example,.

When there is a slipped disc, it means that one of the spinal discs is bulging beyond the edges of the vertebral bodies that are above and below it.

By gently manipulating the spine to make sure that it goes back to its normal state, our team of spinal disc practitioners can help relieve the pressure caused by the slipped disc and provide instant relief.

5 BENEFITS OF NON-SURGICAL SPINAL DECOMPRESSION THERAPY

Back pain can be one of the most debilitating forms of discomfort, and happens to many people for various reasons. Luckily, a simple, noninvasive treatment called spinal decompression is available and has produced numerous success stories for relieving pain without having to have surgery. Spinal decompression involves the process of alleviating pressure that is built up over time inside the discs of the back, which are located between each vertebra. This pressure, often caused by common issues and injuries such as bad posture, is relieved through a decompression table with the help of technology. Pressure is then relieved during this treatment by allowing for nutrients and oxygen to flow back into the disc. Check out a few benefits below to see if it's right for you.

1. It’s Effective
Healing will begin as soon as after the first session. Each spinal decompression session lasts about 30 to 45 minutes long depending on the severity, and is recommended to be done around 15 to 30 times over a six-week period. A harness is used to gently stretch the spine, which opens each pressure filled disc and allows for oxygen and fluids to flow – immediately relieving pain.

2. It’s Safe
With no need for surgery or drugs, spinal decompression can be a safer alternative than other treatment methods. The chances of being injured during this process are zero to none, so there’s no fear or anxiety before-hand like there would be before going into an operating room.

3. It’s Painless
Enjoy a completely painless and relaxing treatment. During a spinal decompression session, a harness is gently fastened around the hips while you are positioned on a decompression table, which slowly moves vertically to stretch the spine. This process can be very relaxing as pressure is relieved between each vertebra.

4. It’s Cost Effective
Compared to surgery, spinal decompression is a much less costly option with a quick recovery time. Spinal surgery can cost tens of thousands of dollars, and has a chance of not being 100% effective. Spinal decompression will also allow for a full recovery of disc problems with speedy recovery, medication free. Surgery requires a long recovery process and pain medication, often leading to negative side effects.

5. Fewer Side Effects
Although rare, spinal decompression side effects may include minor muscle spasms and slight pain, whereas side effects of spinal surgery can include bleeding, infection, negative reaction to drugs, stroke, heart attack or nerve damage. It’s safe to say that spinal decompression treatment is a better option when available.

What Causes Pain Triggered By a Herniated Disc?

Having a slipped disc can be very unpleasant. In some cases, symptoms will die down in six weeks or less. This holds true in about 90% of herniated disc cases.

If disc pain lasts longer than 6 weeks, or keeps recurring over a period of several months or years, this may be a sign that it may not go away on its own. Other treatment options, including gentle, non-surgical spinal decompression treatment, should then be looked at.

Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression Therapy

Most low back discomfort goes away within 2 - 4 weeks.
In the past, a patient suffering from back or neck problem usually was given medications, instructed to refrain from physical activities, referred for physical therapy, and when they weren’t progressing they were sent for cortisone injections or surgery.

Conservative chiropractic care proved very helpful in many cases, yet there have been some cases when surgery seemed to be the only other option… until now....

Today, those that suffer from back problems don’t have to live with that discomfort anymore.

Thanks to the concerted efforts of a team of top physicians and medical engineers, Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression was developed to effectively treat back and neck discomfort and sciatica resulting from herniated or deteriorated discs.

Spinal Decompression not only significantly reduces back and neck discomfort in many patients, but also enables the majority of patients to return to more active lifestyles.
