About This Treatment
What is Spinal Decompression?
Spinal decompression therapy is a non-surgical treatment that gently stretches the spine to relieve pressure on compressed discs and nerves. Using a specialized motorized table, we create negative pressure within the spinal discs, allowing bulging or herniated disc material to retract. This promotes the flow of oxygen, water, and nutrients into the discs, facilitating natural healing.
At Commerce Chiropractic Center, Dr. Shayda Mankooei integrates spinal decompression into comprehensive treatment plans tailored to each patient's unique needs and wellness goals.
