Spinal decompression therapy may sound strange, but it’s a sophisticated and personalized method to alleviate back pain and related conditions. At Bissell Clinic, our spinal decompression table is not your average traction device. It’s computerized, adaptable, and tailored to individual needs.
Sending Healing to Your Discs
Discs are avascular, meaning they lack blood supply, making recovery challenging. The push and pull motion on our table initiates a physiological process known as imbibition. This process draws vital blood and nutrients into the discs, kickstarting the healing process and slowing down degeneration.
It also enhances circulation in the facet joints, reducing degenerative change. Think of it as a mini chiropractic adjustment that improves posture and eases muscle tension and stress.
Life-Changing Results
Dr. Bissell shares a heartwarming story about a patient whose initial MRI revealed a substantial seven-millimeter disc herniation in her neck. After eight weeks of therapy, she took a follow-up MRI, reviewed independently by two radiologists, which showed a remarkable reduction in herniation to just one millimeter. This outcome speaks volumes about the effectiveness of spinal decompression therapy.
The Role of Post-Treatment Care
While spinal decompression therapy is a game-changer, the role of post-treatment care cannot be overstated. To ensure long-term success, following through with post-treatment care is essential, including continuing your prescribed stretches, avoiding falling back into harmful habits to prevent flare-ups, and providing good nutrition and adequate sleep for overall health and quicker healing. Your body needs proper nourishment and rest to rejuvenate and stay healthy.
