Conditions Treated With Spinal Decompression

• Herniated or bulging discs

• Degenerative disc disease

• Sciatica and nerve compression

• Chronic lower back pain

• Disc-related neck pain

• Postural disc stress

How Spinal Decompression Works

Spinal decompression therapy uses a computerized traction table to apply controlled stretching forces to the spine. This process helps:

• Reduce pressure inside damaged discs

• Improve circulation to injured spinal tissues

• Support disc rehydration and nutrient flow

• Decrease nerve irritation

Each session is customized based on your condition, symptoms, and response to care.

At ProCare Oviedo Chiropractors, we specialize in non-surgical spinal decompression therapy as part of a comprehensive, conservative approach to spine care. Treatment recommendations are always based on your condition, symptoms, and response to care.

Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression

Non-surgical spinal decompression is a gentle, evidence-based treatment designed to relieve back and leg pain by reducing pressure on the spinal discs and surrounding nerves. Using a specialized decompression table, the spine is carefully stretched to create negative pressure within the discs.

This process may help:

• Reduce pressure on irritated spinal nerves

• Support rehydration of injured or degenerated discs

• Improve circulation of oxygen and nutrients to damaged tissue

Non-surgical spinal decompression may benefit patients with:

• Herniated or bulging discs by reducing disc pressure on nerve roots

• Spinal stenosis by creating space within the spinal canal

• Sciatica by relieving compression on the sciatic nerve

Treatment is non-invasive, comfortable, and often described as relaxing. Many patients use spinal decompression as part of a broader care plan that includes chiropractic and rehabilitation services.

When Surgery May Be Considered

In some cases, severe spinal conditions may not respond to conservative care alone. Surgical spinal decompression may be considered when symptoms persist despite appropriate non-surgical treatment or when neurological deficits are present.

If surgery becomes a consideration, we can help guide you through next steps and discuss appropriate referral options when needed.

Non-surgical spinal decompression is often recommended for patients experiencing disc-related pain, nerve compression, or chronic spinal stress who want to avoid invasive procedures. This conservative approach focuses on reducing pressure within the spine and supporting natural healing.
