Spinal Decompression Through Las Vegas Chiropractic

By Allan Bigarda


Please tell me more about spinal decompression.

When your spinal Disc is out of alignment with the rest of your spinal vertebrae, it is bound to press on the nerves running through the center of your spine. This misalignment may be due to a herniated Disc or bulging Disc. A herniated Disc hurts and is painful, and the pain is chronic. You may suffer every day from mild to severe back pain. This pain may radiate down your legs, and sometimes you may develop sciatica.

When this misalignment is put back into alignment pressure is taken off the nerves thus eliminating your chronic back pain. A few of the options to correcting this is called traction. This spinal decompression therapy (just explained, ) could be effective on a herniated or bulging disc and thus helps you avoid surgical procedures.

Reasons for this: Not properly lifting objects that are heavy; Twisting or turning the body; Car accidents; Slips or falls; Excess Weight; Being Pregnant; Aging; Osteoporosis

Other natural resolutions that could work in conjunction with spinal decompression: doing yoga; exercising at a level of low-impact; heat; cold; taking pain medication temporarily; EMS; acupressure, acupuncture or other therapy like massage; spinal adjustment; stretching the spine, or traction; and physical therapy.

History of Spinal Decompression: This method of spinal care option is ancient and many thousands of years old. This type of natural spinal care proves useful for many people suffering from degenerative spinal changes, bulging discs, or herniated discs and chronic back pain.

Because spinal decompression is non-invasive, it is often preferable to surgery. This is because the cost is much less and the healing time is also faster, with less pain. Patients would not have to take extra time off from work or their regular schedule.

Spinal Decompression Technique: When you have spinal decompression, you will remain fully clothed. Your practitioner may have you lie on a motorized table on your back or face down.

Your Las Vegas Chiropractor Practitioner attaches a harness around your waist and then attaches the ends of this harness to the foot of the table. This harness slides you gently back and forth. This technique provides traction and relaxation to your back.
