A sedentary lifestyle, combined with bad ergonomics, and further compounded by improper form, a fear of invasive medical treatments, drugs, etc, can quickly lead to chronic back, leg, shoulder, neck, or sciatica pain. Most of us spend several hours every day sitting in front of a computer, with Forward Head Posture, and a fairly exaggerated slouched back, which compresses the inter vertebral discs and causes kinetic chain dysfunction to further compound the problem and it become an issue even in other non related activities.

Sitting with your back rounded, shoulder blades protracted, hunching forwards, compresses the discs in the spine and relaxes the abdominal muscles and hip flexors

Non Surgical alternative for herniated, bulging, or degenerative discs
People often wait too long to contact a doctor, or ask to be referred to physical therapist to help correct muscular imbalances and increase the strength of under active muscles. Sometimes herniated and bulging discs i the spine can lead to a pinched or irritated nerve, which then radiated pain down the glutes, and leg, also referred to a Sciatica, it can be a very painful symptom of an underlying problem.

Non Surgical Spinal Decompression uses non linear traction to help de-stress the inter-vertebral discs, allowing for nutrition to flow in and also proper drainage. By manipulation the spine through the decompression process, the bulging disc material can be allowed, through subsequent treatments, to recede back in to the disc. After that the following treatment sessions allow for the newly retracted disc to heal and reposition properly, without the pressure of skeletal and muscular tissue pressing down on it and impeding the healing process.

Each treatment session of  Non Surgical Spinal Decompression moves the patient through a series of gentle pulling, holding, and releasing cycles. When decompression starts there’s is a slow buildup of tension, which lengthens the spine, resulting in a fair amount of tension (1/2 the patient’s bodyweight+25 lbs.) being exerted directly on to the effected discs. This results in in a noticeable pressure drop and decompression can commence. This process can be so relaxing, that it is not unusual for the patient to fall asleep.

Non Surgical Spinal Decompression, can later be combined with Rehabilitative Physical Therapy,  Behavior Modification, and other advanced, non surgical treatment therapies to assure that the treatment has a long lasting effect,  and to reduce the chances of remission. It is not unusual for patients undergoing non surgical spinal decompression to feel better after just one or two treatments, but it is important to continue the prescribed course of treatments to ensure that the disk has proper time to heal.

Non Surgical Spinal Decompression is available nation wide at reputable Pain Management practices such as Living Well Medical, located in New York City. Combining Chiropractic care, decompression, massage, Graston Technique, and other non invasive treatments such as Active Release Techniques.
