Spinal Decompression in Raleigh, NC: Safe, Non-Surgical Relief for Chronic Back and Neck Pain
At Leigh Brain & Spine, we provide advanced spinal decompression therapy using state-of-the-art technology to relieve chronic pain without surgery. Our FDA-cleared treatment helps patients recover from disc injuries and nerve compression through gentle, targeted therapy.
What Is Spinal Decompression Therapy?
Spinal decompression therapy is a non-invasive treatment that gently stretches the spine to relieve pressure on compressed discs and nerves. We use specialized equipment that creates negative pressure within the spinal discs to promote natural healing.
This therapeutic approach allows nutrients and oxygen to flow back into damaged discs, supporting their repair and regeneration. The treatment is completely painless and many patients report feeling relief during their very first session.
Our computerized decompression system adjusts to each patient’s specific needs, ensuring optimal results for various spinal conditions.
How Spinal Decompression Works
The process begins with a thorough evaluation of your spine to determine the precise areas requiring treatment. Our advanced decompression table then applies controlled forces to stretch specific segments of your spine.
Each session typically lasts 20-30 minutes. The gentle pulling force creates space between vertebrae, reducing pressure on nerve roots and promoting disc rehydration.
The treatment cycles between periods of stretching and relaxation, which helps muscles remain relaxed and allows for optimal decompression of the spine.
Conditions Treated with Spinal Decompression
- Herniated or bulging discs
- Sciatica
- Degenerative disc disease
- Chronic neck pain
- Lower back pain
- Spinal stenosis
- Failed back surgery syndrome
Our spinal decompression therapy has proven particularly effective for patients with disc-related conditions who want to avoid surgery.
Risks of Delaying Treatment
Untreated spinal conditions often lead to progressive deterioration of disc health and increased pain severity. Nerve compression can cause permanent damage if left unaddressed.
Chronic pain may limit daily activities and reduce work productivity. Many patients develop compensatory movement patterns that create additional strain on their bodies.
Without proper treatment, simple tasks become increasingly difficult, and the likelihood of requiring surgical intervention rises significantly.
