Think of an intervertebral disc as a flat, ring-like structure that acts as a shock absorber between two spinal vertebrae. Intervertebral discs allow the spinal to be flexible. The composition of an intervertebral disc can be compared to a jelly doughnut. Each disc is made up of a gel-like nucleus (the jelly filling) surrounded by bands of fibrocartilage (the dough).
Everyday pressure causes intervertebral discs to bulge slightly. However, when a disc suffers an injury, the disc can bulge abnormally or even rupture. This rupture is called a herniation. Imagine that a hand presses on the jelly doughnut until the jelly actually breaks through the dough. This is what happens to a disc under too much pressure. The nucleus ruptures through the fibrocartilage.
Spinal decompression offers pain relief by applying a negative pressure that draws the nucleus material back into the disc space, like sucking the jelly back into the doughnut. At the same time, decompression strengthens the fibrocartilage bands that hold the nucleus in place. What conditions are treated using spinal decompression therapy? Spinal decompression can relieve the pressure caused by a herniated disc, a disc bulge, facet syndrome, sciatica, and spondylolisthesis. According to The American Journal of Pain Management, spinal decompression offers an 86% chance for success for patients with a disc herniation. The chance for success with spinal decompression jumps to 90% for patients with cases of sciatica, stenosis, deterioration, and arthrosis. In comparison, the reported overall failure rate for fusion-type back surgery is 30% and is 37.3% for non-fusion back surgery (results of research on the aftermath of back surgery reported by the Orthopedic Clinic of North America in 1995). What does spinal decompression cost? According to Orthopedic Technology Review Nov, Dec. 2003 issue, chronic low back pain disability is the most expensive benign condition that is medically treated in industrial countries. It is also the number one cause of disability in persons under age 45. They also report that disc disease - the most common cause of back pain, which costs the American health care system more than $50 billion annually - can be cost-effectively treated using spinal decompression. It has been proven that non-surgical therapy, such as spinal decompression, costs less than one tenth of what back surgery costs. Coverage for Chiropractic care and the associated therapies varies with each insurance company. Our experienced staff will gladly verify any insurance benefits that you might have. A typical treatment plan consists of 20-30 sessions, depending on the condition of the disc. Each spinal decompression session last approximately 45 minutes (after the initial consultation). Spinal decompression can offer long-lasting relief. To maximize your results we recommend that you adopt a wellness lifestyle that includes routine, maintenance adjustments and exercise. Can I still work while I am undergoing treatment? Unlike surgery that requires an extensive recovery time, most patients are able to maintain a -normal- work routine while undergoing treatment. If your job is physically stressful, we may ask you to consider light duty for a short period of time. Can I be treated with spinal decompression if I have had spinal surgery in the past? In most cases, the answer is yes However, if you have had metal implants you are not a candidate for spinal decompression. Is there any research regarding Spinal Decompression therapy? The following links will pull up a variety of research papers and articles on non-surgical spinal decompression. Note: Many vertebral axial decompression studies available today were done on a table called VAX-D. It is a great unit, and the same technology was used to make the Triton DTS. We chose the Triton DTS instead because (in our opinion) it is more comfortable for the patient with comparable results. Since the VAX-D has been around longer, most independent studies utilized (or utilize) this table. The following is a list of some of the research using the VAX-D.

Disc Problems can lead to back pain, numbness, tingling and even loss of mobility. Did you know there's a way to heal without undergoing surgery? Using spinal decompression we can reverse decades of back pain and degeneration.
This advanced form of traction is FDA approved and treats conditions such as herniated discs, degenerative disc disease, and several other disc related problems. Spinal decompression creates negative pressure between your vertebrae, allowing oxygen, hydration, and nutrients to surround the damaged tissues. This results in painless, accelerated, natural healing.
