how to treat back pain with spinal decompression

If you are living with chronic or severe back pain, you probably feel like you aren’t living at all. It can rob you of your sleep, hold you back from your favorite pastimes, and keep you from being active. In some cases, your back pain may make it impossible to go to work.

You’ve tried to find relief. You’ve gone to physical therapy, made appointments with your massage therapist, and taken medication for pain relief. Nothing has taken away your pain. It’s with you when you wake up in the morning and it’s still there when you go to bed at night. You need a solution that will help you to take back your life. Spinal decompression in Westchester at Premier Spine & Sports Medicine may be the answer for you.

Understanding Westchester Spinal Decompression

Spinal decompression Westchester is a nonsurgical alternative that may bring you relief when other treatment options have failed. Your spinal decompression chiropractor is skilled in performing this safe and effective treatment option. Spinal decompression focuses on treating spinal disc disorders. If your pain is rooted in pressure placed on the discs in your spine, decompression can take the pressure off. You may be suffering from one of various conditions that can affect your spinal discs, including:

Herniated discs
Sciatica due to a disc applying pressure to your sciatic nerve
Problems with the nerve roots in your spine
Wear and tear of your spinal joints

Your spine is incredibly strong, bearing the burden of your body weight throughout your lifetime. It is flexible as well, making it possible for you to move in so many ways. It consists of an intricate system of vertebrae, or bones, and discs. The discs provide a cushion between each vertebrae. Your spinal nerves run down the center of your vertebrae. When everything is healthy and strong, your back will do wonders for you. However, it only takes a problem with one disc to throw everything off. If your discs fail to offer your vertebrae the cushion that they need, the bones can rub together. This can be extremely painful. Pressure can be placed on your nerves, causing numbness, tingling, and more pain. Loss of flexibility and mobility is possible. When you search “spinal decompression Westchester,” and find us, we can effectively target the source of your pain.

When is it Time to Consider Spinal Decompression Westchester?

Finding the right treatment options for back pain may take time. After an initial evaluation, your doctor may recommend exercise, physical therapy sessions, steroid injections, anti-inflammatory medication, and a back brace. These treatment options may provide temporary relief, but none of them focus on why you are having back pain. They may help you to cope with your pain or mask your pain. You want to resolve the problem that is causing your discomfort. If you are dealing with pain that is caused by pressure applied to your spinal discs, our spinal decompression chiropractor at Premier Spine & Sports Medicine is here to help you.

What Happens During Westchester Spinal Decompression Treatments?

When you seek spinal decompression at Premier Spine & Sports Medicine, you will be carefully evaluated to ensure this treatment method is the right option for you. Once our chiropractor has pinpointed pressure on your discs as the source of your back pain, you can begin spinal decompression treatment. You will have a harness that fits around the trunk of your body. Another harness will be used on your pelvis. You will need to lie down on a special table for your treatment. Our chiropractor may ask you to lie down on your back or your stomach. The table is controlled by a computer. Sections of the table will move as your chiropractor targets areas where your vertebrae need to gently shift in order to relieve pressure on your discs, as well as the bones of your spine. When the pressure is taken off of targeted areas of your spine, relief can finally be yours. Sessions typically last for half an hour to 45 minutes. Patients benefit most from a series of daily sessions over the course of several weeks. It may take at least six weeks before your spinal decompression treatments are complete.
