Spinal Decompression
Spinal decompression therapy offers a safe, non-surgical solution for patients suffering from cervical and lumbar spine conditions. At our chiropractic office in Scottsdale, AZ, we use spinal decompression techniques designed to gently stretch the spine, reduce pressure on discs, and improve nutrient-rich blood flow to injured areas. This process helps relieve compression on nerves caused by herniated discs, bulging discs, degenerative disc disease, and chronic neck or lower back pain.
Many patients experience reduced pain, improved mobility, and faster recovery without the need for medication or surgery.
Cervical (Neck) Spine
Spinal decompression can significantly reduce neck pain, headaches, radiating arm pain, numbness, and tingling caused by nerve compression. By creating negative pressure within the disc, decompression helps retract disc material and decrease irritation around sensitive nerve roots.
Patients struggling with tech neck, whiplash injuries, or chronic stiffness often find lasting relief and improved posture.
Lumbar (Lower Back) Spine
Spinal decompression is especially effective for lower back pain, sciatica, leg pain, and disc-related injuries. By relieving pressure in the lower spine, decompression reduces inflammation and allows the body to heal naturally. Patients frequently report improved flexibility, better daily function, and the ability to return to activities they enjoy.
