Spinal Decompression Therapy: Is It Right for You?

Canyon View Chiropractic is your best choice for chiropractic care in Holladay, Midvale, Murray, Sandy, Cottonwood Heights, and Salt Lake City, UT. Pain can become a hurdle that makes it impossible for you to enjoy living your life to the fullest due to a limited range of motion or chronic pain that just won't let you take part in the activities you enjoy most. For this reason, our team of highly trained and compassionate chiropractors is on hand to provide you with wholesome full-body wellness with no invasive surgeries and medications; just natural treatments and techniques. One such technique we use is spinal decompression, so read on to see if it is right for you.

Benefits of Spinal Decompression

• It helps relieve nerve pressure because the decompression table gently moves your spine back to its correct position thereby removing the pressure that pushes your discs out of position and makes them push on nearby nerves.
• It can help you avoid undergoing spinal surgery by alleviating back pain permanently if your body keeps the changes from decompression rather than rejecting them.
• Spinal decompression treats different conditions including sciatica, herniated or bulging discs, spinal stenosis, posterior facet syndrome, and infected or injured nerves in the spine.
• It encourages circulation within areas that were previously restricted, thereby improving natural and fast healing of inflamed joints of the spine.
• Spinal decompression can provide fast relief for pain; as many patients report an improvement after the first treatment session which is painless and lasts about 45 minutes. It doesn't cause pain or discomfort and after your treatment, you can expect long-term relief as your spine adjusts permanently to the proper position.

Side effects are very rare and may include muscle spasms, increased pain, and tingling. If you have ever fractured vertebrae, had surgeries done on your back, or developed tumors and have a history of aneurysms, you may not be an ideal candidate for spinal decompression.
