Spinal Decompression Through Las Vegas Chiropractic

By Allan Bigarda


What is spinal decompression?

Spinal decompression is when your spinal disc is not aligned with the rest of the spinal vertebrae, and presses against the nerves that run through your spine center. This could be because of a disc that is herniated or bulging. Herniated discs are extremely painful and you will get chronic pain, which could be very mild or most severe on a daily basis. This type of pain goes all the way down to your legs, and you could 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

Natural healthcare options in addition to Spinal Decompression possibly offered by your Las Vegas Chiropractor: Yoga; Exercise at a low impact level; Heat; Cold; EMS; Temporary pain medication like an NSAID; Massage Therapy; Acupressure; Acupuncture; Spinal Adjustments; Traction or stretching of the spine; 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.

Spinal Decompression is non-invasive. This is more cost-effective than having a surgical procedure, and allows the patient to heal more quickly without taking time off. There is also less discomfort in the healing process.

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.

The Las Vegas chiropractic practitioner then puts a harness around the patient's waist and the ends of the harness are attached to the foot of the table. The harness then slides the patient back and forth, which gives traction and allows the back to relax.
