For those individuals who suffer from pain on a daily basis or are dependent on medication to relieve pain, it is important to know that there are non-surgical treatments available. One of the main principles behind chiropractic treatment is to identify and correct the source of a health-related problem without relying on risky and expensive drugs or surgery. The newest treatment option to become available for those who suffer from disc injuries in the neck and/or in the lower back is spinal decompression therapy. This major technological advance in the field of spinal care has enabled patients to achieve relief from spinal disc disorders that had previously been unresponsive to other methods of treatment. It has enabled patients to resume their lifestyle without having to undergo invasive spine surgery.

While The Spine Care Institute has utilized spinal decompression/traction for the past several years, only recently has the technology made such significant advances. In 2008, our New York facility will become one of the first in the country to begin using the most advanced system to date, the patented Antalgic-Trak Spinal Decompression System.

Some of the most common conditions treated with spinal decompression therapy:

Back Pain Neck Pain Arm Pain Sciatica Leg Pain Herniated Disc Degenerative Disc Disease Bulging Disc Stenosis Facet Syndrome

The treatment is absolutely safe and uses equipment that is 501(k) registered with the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Spinal decompression treatment is designed to relieve pressure on structures that may be the source of pain. Controlled tension is applied to allow for the relaxation of muscles around the spine while using distractive forces to decompress spinal discs and relieve nerve pressure.

 If you have been in pain and it has limited your daily activities, you owe it to yourself to get help. Spinal decompression treatment has helped numerous people get their life back and it may be able to resolve your pain permanently without the need for surgery.
