Spinal Decompression Therapy
– Relief for neck & back pain

Spinal Decompression Therapy is a non-surgical, traction based treatment used to help improve herniated, or bulging, discs in the neck and lower back.

Spinal Decompression Therapy is an effective treatment for:

  • Low Back/Neck Pain
  • Herniated or bulging discs
  • Degenerative disc disease
  • Facet Syndromes
  • Sciatica
  • Failed Spinal Surgery
  • Spinal Stenosis
 

If you or your family members have been struggling with these debilitating conditions with little or no relief, then ask yourself the following questions:

  • Are you currently dependent on medications on a daily basis?
  • Are you limited in daily activities?
  • Have you had repeated injections or epidurals with little or no relief?
  • Are you considering surgery and are uncomfortable with that choice?
  • Have all the options been presented to you?
  • Have you already tried chiropractic or Physiotherapy?
  • Have you been out of work due to pain?
 

If you answered yes to any of these questions, then non-surgical spinal decompression therapy is certainly a viable treatment option. This could very well be what you’re looking for.
