Spinal Decompression Treatments
You might be one of the millions of people who suffer from chronic back pain or neck pain, you will be happy to discover that there is an effective treatment for that pain that does not include surgery or drugs. Most people prefer to avoid taking drugs if possible, and surgery always involves risks and is frequently unsuccessful in relieving back pain.
Dr. Allan Dyer, PhD, MD, conceived the idea for a non-surgical method of spinal decompression in 1985 and developed the first table for spinal decompression in 1991. A pneumatic system controlled the original device, and it applied and released slowly and steadily. So that when the device applied traction force, it lessened muscle guarding and the resulting spasm. A newer version of the table, developed in 2004, used electrically driven components instead of the pneumatic technology, which offered more precision. An enhanced control system operated by an on board computer establishing a logarithmic curve was added as well.
Doctors, corporations and Scientists, have taken the concept and used the latest technologies to develop tables with enhanced effectiveness for spinal decompression. Many of the chiropractic doctors today have the necessary skills, training and equipment to offer this amazing non-surgical approach to spinal decompression.
Joint fluid brings nutrition into spinal discs and carries wastes out. When you have a reduction of the mobility range in your discs or of the joint fluid's pumping action, it causes deterioration in the discs, and associated complications begin. When damage occurs to a spinal disc, it may herniate, rupture or bulge. This can put pressure on nerve roots and further obstruct movement.
A competent chiropractor can now treat chronic back pain without surgery or drugs with LCD spinal decompression therapy. This mechanical decompression therapy gently and slowly stretches the spine, which takes the pressure off vertebrae and compressed discs, thus relieving pain for the sufferer. The LCD system gradually distracts the spine to let the body begin healing naturally. The distractive force gently causes the spinal discs to decompress, increases circulation to them and enables them to absorb nutrients. The pull force graduates gently to keep muscle guarding minimized and enhance your comfort during the process.
The extremely successful LCD spinal decompression therapy has helped many patients by relieving or eliminating their pain from conditions like degenerative joint disease, herniated discs, pinched nerves, sciatica, facet syndromes and bulging discs. When a chiropractic doctor decompresses the spine, the intradiscal pressure allows the extruded disc portion to suck back and ease the pressure on the nerve causing the arm or leg pain. In addition, the axial decompression opens disc space along with the space where the nerve goes out and stretches the ligaments, tendons and musculature surrounding the disc.
Chronic back pain can prevent you from enjoying life to the fullest. When your back hurts no matter what you do, you need to get relief. Visit a qualified chiropractor who can evaluate your condition and advise you about LCD spinal decompression therapy, and you may finally be on the path to a pain free life without drugs or surgery.
