The Benefits of Spinal Decompression

Non-surgical spinal decompression can complement a range of other therapies, such as massage therapy or acupuncture. This non-invasive therapy is often included as part of an effective treatment plan offering benefits like:

Supports Natural Healing: Decompression may help improve the movement of oxygen, fluids and nutrients to affected spinal structures.

May Help With Bulging or Herniated Discs: Reducing pressure may help create a more favorable environment for disc recovery.

Reduces Pressure on Spinal Discs: Gentle decompression may help reduce pressure affecting damaged or irritated discs.

Relieves Pressure on Nerves: Decompression may help patients experiencing symptoms associated with nerve compression.

What to Expect from Spinal Decompression

Patients may qualify for either nonsurgical or surgical spinal decompression therapy. Nonsurgical spinal decompression utilizes motorized traction to gently stretch the spine. This mild procedure alleviates pressure on, and may promote retraction of, herniated and bulging discs. By reducing the pressure in the affected area, the body can proceed with its natural healing process.


Before beginning treatment, your chiropractor will evaluate your condition and determine whether spinal decompression may be appropriate for your needs. Individuals may require a series of in-office treatments. Each session may last up to 45 minutes. Patients often experience less discomfort, inflammation and muscle tension soon after a session.

SpineMed Spinal Decompression FAQs

If you suffer from lumbar pain, neck pain, lower back pain, hip pain, or other problems with your central nervous system, you may be wondering if spinal decompression can help with pain relief. SpineMed therapy can be beneficial to people suffering from damaged discs due to poor lifestyle habits or auto injury.

  • What conditions can spinal decompression treat?

    Through spinal decompression, our Central, NJ, chiropractor can help people suffering from lower back pain, cervical pain, neck pain, scoliosis pain, lumbar pain, or hip pain due to herniated, bulging, or damaged spinal discs. In addition to pain, disc problems can cause numbness, weakness, headaches, and restricted mobility and flexibility. SpineMed therapy makes use of a SpineMed machine to stretch your spine to relieve pain and pressure caused by damaged discs, giving your body a chance to heal.

  • Is spinal decompression painful?

    Most people experience little to no discomfort or pain. You may, however, experience a "tightening" sensation in your spine during treatment or muscle soreness similar to when you start a new exercise regimen.

  • How does spinal decompression differ from standard traction therapy?

    Although both therapies entail stretching the spine, traction therapy doesn't go to the root of the problem when it comes to correcting disc issues. SpineMed therapy is designed to treat painful disc symptoms at their source so you can obtain relief. The SpineMed machine creates a vacuum within your disc, causing it to suck in the herniation to restore your disc to its proper position. In the process, blood flow is restored to the area to expedite healing.

  • Can spinal decompression be used with other treatments?

    For optimal results, it's better for SpineMed therapy to be combined with other holistic treatments that can help strengthen and stabilize spinal muscles. Whether your condition was caused by poor lifestyle habits, auto injury, or degenerative spinal discs, it will take time and the collective effort of numerous therapies to help you heal naturally. Disc problems can cause an imbalance in your spine which can be corrected through spinal adjustments to facilitate healing. Spinal exercises will strengthen your spinal muscles and structure to keep disc problems from recurring.

  • Can spinal decompression help with respiratory problems like asthma, sinus issues, and allergies?

    Respiratory problems like asthma, allergies, and sinus issues are impacted by your nervous system. By improving the function of your central nervous system, spinal decompression can help alleviate symptoms of asthma, sinus issues, and allergies.
