Spine Conditions & Disorders

Spinal decompression offers patients relief when Chiropractic has not been successful. Causes of low back pain, sciatica, and degenerative disease:

  1. Spinal vertebrae become misaligned, lose essential motion and become fixated.
  2. This leads to progressive wear and tear on spinal discs which act as spongy shock absorbers in between the bones.
  3. Progressive disc degeneration is characterized by bony spurs of the vertebrae, dehydration of the discs, and an inability of the discs and joints to receive vital nutrients.
  4. Spinal stenosis or a narrowing of the spinal canal opening leads to ligamentous thickening, hardening and progressive degenerative change.

 

The following conditions and disorders can be treated with Spinal Decompression:
