Back and Spine Treatment

Relieve Back Pain with Spinal Decompression Therapy

Spinal decompression therapy helps relieve lower back and neck pain and treat a variety of conditions related to the spine. At Spine and Joint Institute of Milwaukee, we use specialized tables that gently stretch the spine and provide relief to our work injury patients. This stretching action creates negative pressure within the spinal discs, which may help alleviate pressure on the nerves, reduce pain, and promote healing. The treatment is usually administered over a series of sessions, with each session lasting about 30 to 45 minutes.

Typically, an initial course of spinal decompression therapy involves multiple sessions per week for several weeks, followed by a gradual reduction in frequency. Maintenance sessions may be recommended afterward to manage symptoms and prevent recurrence. However, it's essential to undergo a thorough evaluation by a healthcare professional at Spine and Joint Institute of Milwaukee to determine if spinal decompression therapy is right for you.

What to Expect During a Spinal Decompression Therapy Session

During a spinal decompression therapy session, you can expect the following:

  1. Preparation. You'll be positioned comfortably on a specialized table or device. Your healthcare provider may provide additional support, such as a cushion or straps, to ensure proper alignment during the treatment.
  2. Application of traction. The device will gently stretch your spine, applying a controlled traction force. This stretching action creates negative pressure within the spinal discs, which may help relieve pressure on the nerves and promote healing.
  3. Monitoring. Throughout the session, your healthcare provider will monitor your response to the treatment, adjusting the traction force as needed to ensure your comfort and safety.
  4. Duration. A typical spinal decompression therapy session lasts about 30 to 45 minutes, although the duration may vary depending on your specific needs and the recommendations of your healthcare provider.
  5. Post-treatment care. After the session, your healthcare provider may recommend specific exercises or activities to complement the treatment's effects and promote optimal results. They may also provide guidance on lifestyle modifications to help prevent the recurrence of your symptoms.

Communicating discomfort or concerns with your healthcare provider during the session is essential. They can adjust the treatment as needed to ensure your comfort and safety. It's important to follow your healthcare provider's recommendations regarding the frequency and duration of spinal decompression therapy treatments. They will tailor the treatment plan to your specific needs and monitor your progress throughout the course of therapy. Additionally, be sure to communicate any changes in your symptoms or concerns with your healthcare provider so that adjustments can be made to your treatment plan accordingly.
