Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression May Be The Answer For You!

How Many Treatments does it Take?

The majority of our patients find treatments to be a comfortable and relaxing experience, many actually fall asleep. The average successful treatment requires 20 to 28 sessions over six to eight weeks. Each treatment is approximately 30-45 minutes. The doctor may recommend other treatment modalities in order to reduce inflammation, improve range of motion, decrease pain, accelerate healing potential, improve balance, and strengthen supporting structures such as:

• Deep Tissue Laser (decreases pain and inflammation, promote further healing of injured tissues)
• Muscle Therapy (help relax muscle tension/ spasm)
• Electrical Stimulation (electric current that breaks down muscle memory)
• Ultrasound (the use of sound waves to generate heat and promote healing)
• Strength Restoration Exercises and Stretching (a vital part of the treatment protocol. They are designed to improve function, strengthen and stabilize the muscles for your back and neck which will help create long term benefits).
• Specific Home Postural, Stretching and Strengthening Exercises (will help in supporting and maintaining your spinal health and reduce the probability of reoccurrence)
