Spinal Decompression Therapy: Are You A Candidate?

If you have chronic back pain with its related symptoms, you know how your life has been interrupted. You may not be able to think of much else except to find relief from pain. Some people turn to spinal decompression therapy--either surgical or nonsurgical. Here's what you need to know to help decide which one may be right for you.

What Is Nonsurgical Spinal Decompression Therapy?

Nonsurgical spinal decompression therapy works by gently stretching the spine. It uses motorized traction that changes the force and position of the spine. This takes pressure off the spinal disks (gel-like cushions between the bones in your spine). Over time, this negative pressure will cause bulging or herniated disks to retract, releasing the pressure off the nerves in your spine. This then helps promote movement of water, oxygen, and nutrient-rich fluids into the disks so they can heal.

Nonsurgical spinal decompression therapy is used to treat the following conditions:

• Back or neck pain, or sciatica
• Bulging or herniated disks or degenerative disk disease
• Worn spinal joints
• Injured or diseased spinal nerve roots

Surgical Spinal Decompression—the last resort!

Surgical spinal decompression is another option for treating certain types of back pain, but it is usually used as a last resort. If other measures don't work, your doctor may suggest one or more types of back surgeries to relieve the pressure in your spine, in addition to spinal fusion to stabilize your spine. As with any surgery, there are risks, such as infection, bleeding, blood clots, allergic reaction to anesthesia, and nerve or tissue damage. Another risk of surgery is that it may not actually improve your back pain. It is often difficult for doctors to determine who will really benefit from spinal decompression surgery.
