Frequently Asked Questions About Spinal Decompression Therapy

Does spinal decompression work long term? Yes, spinal decompression becomes more effective over the course of continuous treatment. Many patients experience pain relief lasting up to a year following their final spinal decompression treatment.

How long does a session take? Between 30 and 45 minutes depending on your condition, your pain levels, and your comfort levels. To experience the full range of benefits provided by spinal decompression, regular appointments are recommended.

Does spinal decompression therapy hurt? Very few patients report pain following spinal decompression. Not only is it painless, but many patients also report deep relaxation and relief from the pain they had accepted as permanent. A feeling of pressure is normal as your body adjusts, but it will likely dissipate after a session or two. If you begin experiencing pain, notify our chiropractor immediately.

What if it does not relieve my chronic back pain effectively? If spinal decompression therapy does not reduce your pain, we offer many effective alternatives including chiropractic adjustments and cold laser therapy. Our chiropractor will assess your musculoskeletal system to determine the best course of action.
