Back pain is a common problem that affects many folks of all ages. There are a number of different causes of back pain, but one of the most common is our spinal discs. As we age, our spinal discs lose their flexibility and that can result in pain. Luckily, there is a procedure available that can help – spinal decompression therapy.
Spinal decompression therapy is a non-surgical treatment method for back problems that uses traction to elongate the spine. This helps take the pressure off of your spinal discs and decreasess the discomfort. Spinal decompression therapy is generally done on an outpatient basis, meaning you can go home after each session.
The procedure 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. As a result; your pain is alleviated.
Spinal decompression therapy sessions last about 30 minutes and are typically done 2-3 times weekly. A lot of people start to see results after about 8-12 weeks of treatment.
If you’re suffering from back pain and are interested in a higher likelihood of recovering, spinal decompression may be a good treatment option for you. This therapy uses traction to stretch the spine and relieve pressure on the discs, which can help reduce pain. Give Dr. Haycock a call today at (330) 833-2085 to schedule an appointment.
