About Spinal Decompression Treatments and Decompression Therapy
Doctors About Care, PC has had great success in treating their Bay Shore patients with decompression therapy since 1999. Decompression is a painless and non-surgical therapy. Decompression is a gentle distraction of the spine, which helps with improving blood flow. By stretching and relaxing the spine, nutrients are then able to be taken in by the disc. Decompression creates a vacuum in the disc, which reduces pressure against the nerves that causes severe pain. It helps to naturally draw the bulging disc material back into place. Spinal decompression treatments creates a normalcy of the spine's discs and helps the disc receive the nutrition it lost due to their being damaged or degenerated.
Spinal decompression treatments greatly helps your healing process, offering pain relief, and enabling patients to return to an active lifestyle once again. Along with decompression therapy, your doctor will have you do specific core stabilizing exercises to strengthen your core, when you feel able to do it.
The decompression machine is able to sense the resistance of your muscles to its pulling forces and will reduce and cycle the stretch in a way that your body won't resist the tension. It is performed in a slowly-controlled manner, as it oscillates back and forth between minimum and maximum pulls.
Following decompression therapy, other physical therapy treatments would be beneficial which includes applications of ice, heat, muscle stimulation which will help reduce any inflammation, as well as other rehabilitative exercises which are needed to strengthen the surrounding muscles of the spine.
Decompression therapy is used to help relieve pain of many conditions such as:
Herniated discs, ruptured discs, bulging discs, degenerative disc disease, sciatica, neck pains, back pains, carpal tunnel syndrome, spondylolisthesis, pinched nerves, facet syndrome, post surgical patients, spinal stenosis, those who suffer from pains radiating to the arm and leg – to list a few.
In the long run, when you want effective pain relief, reduced inflammation of spinal discs, have improved blood flow to your discs, continue your discs receiving vital nutrients needed for proper healing, and to regain an active lifestyle, try Bay Shore decompression therapy.
