How Non-surgical Spinal Decompression Therapy Works Non-surgical spinal decompression therapy works on the simple scientific principle of traction. It is one of the latest therapeutic solutions for a number of back related ailments. The pain relieving modality uses a sophisticated computer which is programmed for distraction and decompression of the spinal column. The treatment has become quite popular over the past few years with scores of patients undergoing treatment each passing day. A Controlled Spinal Treatment Healthcare facilities, clinics and hospitals make use of FDA approved modalities for controlled spinal treatment. Patients who qualify for treatment are just required to lie on the traction table as directed by the specialist. In the course of the treatment, the vertebrae are gently separated from each other and a vacuum is created within the discs by applying a negative pressure. This vacuum helps to pull back any herniated or protruded disc material along with nutrients back into the disc and stimulates blood supply, thereby allowing healing. The spinal decompression therapy reverses nerve impairment, reduces loading of the spine and mends damaged spinal discs. Apart from pain relief, it offers several additional benefits such as increased motion and flexibility, improved sleep and quick return to preinjury lifestyle. As a therapeutic procedure, each session lasts for about 30 to 45 minutes. A patient may need to undergo around 15 to 20 sessions for complete cure. No anesthesia is administered as patients feel no pain or discomfort. On the contrary, they feel relaxed and comfortable. Non-surgical spinal decompression therapy is found to be most effective for treatment of degenerated disc; herniated or bulging disc; spinal stenosis; sciatic, pinched nerves; foraminal stenosis and radiculopathy. It has an outstanding success rate with most patients starting to experience the difference after the completion of the first session. An Excellent Alternative to Surgery Some patients are advised to undergo surgery when conventional forms of back pain treatment fail. However, with the coming of non-surgical spinal decompression therapy, one has an alternative choice when it comes to treating unrelenting chronic back pain. It is a very safe treatment which works wonders with possibilities of risk and complications next to nil.
