Is Spinal Decompression Therapy Painful?

If you're considering spinal decompression therapy, you might be wondering, "Is Spinal Decompression therapy painful?" The good news is that in most cases, spinal decompression is completely painless. In fact, many patients find the treatment comfortable enough to fall asleep during their session.


Here’s how it works: during your treatment, you’ll be positioned to ensure maximum comfort. The Triton® DTS system gently stretches and relaxes your spine in cycles, gradually increasing in intensity. These gentle forces create decompression, which helps to improve blood flow, nutrient exchange, and overall healing of the injured area. This process helps to relieve lower back pain, sciatica, neck pain, and can also reduce the pain from a pinched nerve caused by herniated discs.


Most patients report pain relief after just 4-6 sessions, though the healing process takes longer. Even though the pain may decrease, it's essential to follow the treatment protocol prescribed by your doctor to ensure you experience the full, long-term benefits of spinal decompression therapy.


So, while spinal decompression is typically not painful, it can offer substantial relief, especially when you commit to the full treatment plan for healing. Find out more! Call Dr Abigail Swank or Dr Parker Neill at 919-469-8897 today!
