Could You Benefit from Spinal Decompression?

Many people suffer from chronic back pain without realizing that spinal decompression could be the solution they need. If you experience persistent discomfort, limited mobility, or pain radiating down your legs, spinal decompression might be the answer to your problems. Las Sendas Spine Institute in Mesa, AZ, is skilled and experienced in providing effective spinal decompression solutions.

What Is Spinal Decompression?

Spinal decompression is a non-surgical therapy designed to relieve pressure on the spine. The process involves gently stretching the spine using a specialized table, which creates negative pressure within the discs. This negative pressure helps retract herniated or bulging discs, allowing for increased blood flow and nutrient exchange, promoting healing.

Benefits of Spinal Decompression

  • Pain Relief: Alleviates chronic back and neck pain.
  • Non-Invasive: Avoids the risks associated with surgery.
  • Improved Mobility: Enhances range of motion and flexibility.
  • Quick Recovery: Minimal downtime compared to surgical options.
  • Targeted Treatment: Focuses on specific areas of the spine for effective results.

Spinal Decompression for Chronic Low Back Pain

Chronic low back pain can significantly impact your quality of life. Spinal decompression offers a targeted approach to relieve this pain by addressing the underlying issues such as herniated discs and degenerative disc disease. By reducing pressure on the spinal nerves, 85-90% of patients experience significant and lasting relief.
