Spinal Decompression Therapy in Tampa

Spinal decompression treatment

A Non-Surgical Option for Pain Relief

Spinal decompression therapy is FDA cleared and has a high success rate for pain associated with herniated or bulging discs even after failed surgery. It is a non-surgical, traction-based therapy for the relief of back and leg pain or neck and arm pain. During this procedure, by cycling through distraction and relaxation phases and by proper positioning, a spinal disc can be isolated and placed under negative pressure, causing a vacuum effect within it.

During spinal decompression therapy at Dr. Lichter and Associates, a negative pressure is created within the disc. Because of that negative pressure, disc material that has protruded or herniated can be pulled back within the normal confines of the disc, and permit healing to occur.

Who Can Spinal Decompression Help?

Anyone who has back pain or neck pain caused in whole or in part by a damaged disc may be helped by spinal decompression therapy. These conditions include degenerated, herniated, protruding or bulging discs, spinal
stenosis, sciatica or radiculopathy (pinched nerves), facet syndrome and some failed back surgery patients.
