Spinal Decompression

If you have ongoing back or neck pain, it can make everyday tasks hard. This pain often comes from issues like bulging or herniated disks in your spine, which press on nerves. One way to ease this pain is to try spinal decompression therapy.

Spinal decompression can be done without surgery or with surgery. The non-surgical kind gently stretches your spine to take pressure off the problem areas, helping them heal. Surgery might be needed for more serious cases, like if you have bony growths or disks that are ruptured. Dr. Ali can explain the options and help decide what's best for you.

Here's why spinal decompression can help:
​​​​​​​

1. It boosts blood flow and sends more nutrients to the sore area, helping it heal.
2. It takes pressure off disks that are bulging or herniated, which can make them go back to normal.
3. It eases pressure on nerves and other parts around your spine.
4. It can make daily activities and exercises easier.
5. It can reduce back or neck pain.

You might need several sessions of treatment, and each one usually takes about 25 minutes. Many people feel less pain and tension right after a session.

Surgery is another option, but it comes with risks that Dr. Ali will explain. And even after surgery, you might not feel better right away. It could take time for your body to heal and for you to notice a big difference.
