At Active Life Chiropractic, we offer spinal decompression therapy to help patients in Des Moines, IA find relief from chronic back pain, herniated discs, and sciatica. Dr. Coons utilizes non-surgical decompression therapy to gently stretch the spine, relieve pressure on spinal discs, and promote natural healing.
If you’re suffering from bulging discs, nerve compression, or persistent back pain, spinal decompression can help restore mobility and provide long-term pain relief. This safe, drug-free therapy is an effective alternative to surgery and pain medications.
What Is Spinal Decompression Therapy?
Spinal decompression therapy is a non-invasive treatment designed to relieve pressure on the spine and promote the healing of injured discs. Using a specialized decompression table, gentle stretching motions help create negative pressure in the spine, allowing:
- Bulging or Herniated Discs to Reposition: Reduces pressure on nerves and surrounding tissues.
- Improved Blood Flow & Nutrient Exchange: Stimulates healing and repairs damaged spinal structures.
- Pain & Inflammation Reduction: Eases discomfort associated with pinched nerves and disc injuries.
Unlike traditional traction therapy, spinal decompression is computer-controlled, ensuring precise pressure adjustments for optimal results.
