Chronic back pain, herniated discs, or sciatica can disrupt your daily life and limit your mobility. At Crown Chiropractic Clinics in Richardson, we offer non-surgical spinal decompression therapy, a safe and effective treatment designed to relieve pressure on the spine, promote healing, and restore comfort without injections or surgery.
What Is Spinal Decompression?
Spinal decompression is a gentle, motorized therapy that stretches the spine in a controlled manner. This movement helps:
Create space between vertebrae
Relieve pressure on spinal discs and nerves
Increase blood flow and nutrients to damaged tissue
Promote disc rehydration and healing
It’s completely non-invasive, relaxing, and typically done while you lie comfortably on a decompression table.
Who Can Benefit from Spinal Decompression?
Spinal decompression therapy is especially helpful for patients with:
Herniated or bulging discs
Degenerative disc disease
Sciatica or nerve root compression
Chronic neck or low back pain
Pain after failed back surgery (in some cases)
We start with a detailed exam to determine whether spinal decompression is the right option for your condition.
