Spinal Decompression

A gentle option for disc and nerve-related pain.

Non-surgical, motorized therapy designed to gradually reduce pressure on spinal discs and irritated nerves for appropriate patients.

Non-surgical disc therapy

Controlled care designed around your comfort.

Spinal decompression uses carefully controlled positioning and traction. It is often discussed by people dealing with disc-related pain, sciatica, or nerve irritation. An evaluation is important because decompression is not the right fit for every condition.

  • May help reduce pressure on bulging and herniated discs.
  • May calm sciatica and radiating leg pain.
  • May reduce nerve irritation and related numbness.
  • Offers a conservative option to discuss before more aggressive care.

Is spinal decompression painful?

Sessions are designed to be comfortable and gradual. Tell Dr. Cornwell about any discomfort so the settings can be adjusted.

How many sessions will I need?

The number and frequency depend on your evaluation, health history, and response. Dr. Cornwell will explain a realistic recommendation.
