What Is Spinal Decompression?

Spinal decompression is a specialized treatment that gently stretches the spine to create negative pressure within the spinal discs. This process allows bulging or herniated discs to retract slightly, relieving pressure on compressed nerves and promoting the movement of oxygen, water, and nutrients into the discs for improved healing.

Unlike surgical procedures or aggressive treatments, spinal decompression therapy is performed using a comfortable, controlled table that precisely targets the problem areas in your spine. Patients often experience relief from chronic lower back pain, neck pain, sciatica, and symptoms related to bulging or herniated discs.

Our Approach

At Axis Chiropractic, Dr. Lee Russo uses spinal decompression as part of a comprehensive approach to spinal health. After a thorough evaluation of your symptoms, injury history, and spinal condition, Dr. Russo may recommend decompression therapy to address issues such as disc herniation, bulging disc, sciatica, severe back pain, or chronic nerve compression.

During treatment, you'll relax on a specialized decompression table while gentle, computer-controlled movements stretch and release your spine. This therapy helps create space between the vertebrae, reduces disc pressure, and allows trapped nerves to heal naturally over time. Many patients even fall asleep during their session as the process is relaxing and therapeutic.

Depending on your specific needs, Dr. Russo may combine decompression therapy with targeted chiropractic adjustments, Class IV laser therapy, or rehabilitation exercises to maximize your results and support long-term recovery. Each treatment plan is fully customized to your body's exact needs and your personal health goals.
