Spinal Decompression & Chiropractic Therapy Helps Relieve Lumbar Issues in Philadelphia
Back discomfort is a common issue that affects many folks of all age groups. There are several different causes of back pain, but one of the most common is our spinal discs. As we age, our spinal discs no longer have their flexibility and that results in pain. Thankfully, there is a technique available that can help – spinal decompression therapy.
What is Spinal Decompression Therapy?
Spinal decompression therapy is a non-surgical treatment option for back pain that uses traction to stretch the spine. This helps take the pressure off of your spinal discs and lessenss the pain. Spinal decompression therapy is usually done on an outpatient basis, meaning you can go home after each session.
How Does Spinal Decompression Therapy Work?
The treatment begins with you lying down on a table. The table will then slowly and gently stretch your spine. This stretching action generates negative pressure within your discs, which causes them to bulge and herniate less. The result; your pain is decreased.
Spinal decompression therapy sessions last about 30 minutes and are generally done 2-3 times weekly. Most men and women start to feel results after about 8-12 weeks of therapy.
