What Is Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression?

Non-surgical spinal decompression is a gentle, FDA-cleared therapy that uses computerized traction to stretch the spine, creating negative pressure within spinal discs. This may help retract bulging or herniated disc material, relieve pressure on nerves, and promote healing nutrient flow.

What to Expect: Your Spinal Decompression Journey

From your first visit to ongoing care, here’s how our physician-led spinal decompression program works:

1

Comprehensive Medical Evaluation ($29)

Your osteopathic physician will conduct a thorough physical exam, review your medical history, discuss your symptoms and goals, and determine if spinal decompression is appropriate for your condition. Unlike a quick chiropractic assessment, this is a full medical evaluation by a board-certified doctor.

2

Personalized Treatment Plan

If you’re a candidate, your physician will design a customized treatment plan that may include spinal decompression, cold laser therapy, and gentle osteopathic manipulation. Treatment is tailored to your specific condition.

3

Gentle Decompression Sessions

During each session, you’ll relax on the decompression table while the computerized system gently stretches your spine. Sessions typically last 20-30 minutes and are pain-free. Most patients find them relaxing—many even fall asleep during treatment.

4

Complementary Therapies

After decompression, your physician may perform osteopathic manipulation to correct alignment and cold laser therapy to reduce inflammation and promote healing at the cellular level. This comprehensive approach addresses multiple aspects of your condition.

5

Progress Monitoring & Adjustments

Your osteopathic physician tracks your progress and adjusts your treatment plan as needed. You’re not locked into a one-size-fits-all protocol—care evolves based on your individual response and recovery.

Typical Treatment Timeline

Your physician will design a personalized plan—typically 12–24 sessions over 4–8 weeks—based on your condition and progress. Many patients experience immediate pain relief, and others find that natural healing through treatment helps them avoid the cost and pain of back surgery.

Common Questions About Spinal Decompression

Is spinal decompression painful? +
No. Most patients find spinal decompression relaxing and pain-free. The computerized system gently stretches your spine in a controlled, gradual manner. Many patients even fall asleep during sessions. The treatment is designed to be comfortable and therapeutic.
What’s the difference between seeing you vs. a chiropractor for decompression? +
Chiropractors can operate decompression tables, but they cannot provide the comprehensive medical evaluation and integrated treatment that osteopathic physicians offer. As board-certified DOs, we combine decompression with osteopathic manipulation, cold laser therapy when appropriate. We’re medical doctors with broader scope and training, allowing us to address your condition from multiple angles.
How many sessions will I need? +
Most patients need 12-24 sessions over 4-8 weeks, but this varies based on your condition severity, response to treatment, and goals. Your physician will customize your treatment plan during your initial evaluation and adjust as needed based on your progress.
Will insurance cover spinal decompression? +
We offer $29 consultations so you can get the information you need, plus flexible payment plans to make treatment more manageable since insurance rarely offers any coverage.
Can spinal decompression help me avoid surgery? +
For many patients, spinal decompression combined with our comprehensive osteopathic care may help reduce pain, improve function, and in some cases delay or reduce the need for surgery. However, individual results vary, and some conditions ultimately require surgical intervention. Your physician will be honest about your prognosis during your evaluation.
Are there any conditions where spinal decompression is NOT recommended? +
Yes. Spinal decompression is not appropriate for pregnant women, people with fractures, severe osteoporosis, spinal tumors, or certain other conditions. This is why a comprehensive physician evaluation is essential before starting treatment. Your safety is our priority.
