NON SURGICAL SPINAL DECOMPRESSION
Non surgical spinal decompression is a procedure delivered by a computerised medical device, which gently reduces the pressure on specifically targeted discs, releasing any pinched nerves and relieving chronic back and neck pain.
The gentle stretch and release protocols create a vacuum effect to encourage retraction and repositioning of any bulging or herniated disc material to its original position, giving the disc the opportunity to heal and rehydrate.
In contrast, the surgical options for these conditions typically involve either a Microdiscectomy, entailing the surgical removal of disc material, or a Laminectomy, involving the surgical removal of a portion of the vertebral bone.
Although relatively new to Australia, Non Surgical Spinal Decompression has been used, for many years, to treat cervical and lumbar conditions in the USA, UK and Europe.
If you’re looking for relief from chronic lower back pain, neck pain, sciatica, bulging or herniated discs, non surgical spinal decompression treatments could be the solution you’ve been looking for.
COMPRESSED, BULGING DISC – PRESSING ON
THE NERVES
SPINAL DECOMPRESSION THEORY
Reversing of the axial load, through decompression, relieves the pressure on the disc(s) and entrapped nerves. This promotes enhanced circulation to the affected area, which in turn aids the healing process, reducing inflammation and resulting in regained mobility and pain relief.
WHAT DOES A TREATMENT INVOLVE?
Once positioned on the table, with legs raised for added comfort, the unique program will be set to deliver the exact gentle force required during the 20-minute treatment.
There is no need to undress or even take off your shoes and with the room lights dimmed, you will be encouraged to relax, meditate, or preferably sleep during the treatment.
IS IT A PAINFUL PROCESS?
Typically not. Some patients may experience temporary soreness which is a sign that muscles have been worked in a new way, however this generally passes once the muscles are relaxed during treatment.
WHY SPINAL DECOMPRESSION TREATMENT?
- To assist in the relief of chronic back and neck pain
- As an alternative to surgery
- When other treatments are not working
- To assist with reducing dependency on painkillers
- To support long-term pain relief
- To assist with a return to normal activities

NON SURGICAL SPINAL CARE OFFERS AN ALTERNATIVE TO SURGERY
Treatments are extremely gentle, non invasive and suitable for chronic conditions in the cervical (neck) and lumbar (lower back) regions of the spine.
Conditions most responsive are lower back and neck pain, sciatica, arm and/or leg pain caused by bulging discs, disc herniations and degenerative disc disease.
Taking the pressure of the discs and joints, through gentle and specifically targetted stretching of the spine, to reduce pain and improve mobility.
