Spinal decompression therapy in Bedford, TX
Non-surgical cervical and lumbar spinal decompression for herniated and bulging discs, sciatica, spinal stenosis and degenerative discs, at Back & Neck Care Center of Bedford.
Spinal decompression in Bedford
Spinal decompression therapy gently stretches the spine to create negative pressure inside a herniated or bulging disc, which can let the disc retract and take pressure off the nerves. Reducing pressure in the disc also helps fluid, nutrients and oxygen move back into it. Back & Neck Care Center of Bedford offers both cervical (neck) and lumbar (low back) decompression.
Conditions decompression is used for
| Area | Conditions |
|---|---|
| Discs | Herniated discs, bulging discs, degenerative disc disease |
| Nerves | Sciatica, radiculopathy (pain, numbness or weakness along a nerve) |
| Joints and canal | Spinal stenosis, facet syndrome, spinal arthritis |
| Other | Failed back surgery, some headaches |
If your leg pain is the main problem, read sciatica basics. If it started after a crash, see car accident care and back and neck pain after a car accident.
How many treatments are needed?
Results have been best with 20 to 30 decompression treatments, at a typical frequency of 3 times per week. Several factors decide the protocol designed for you, because no two spines are the same. Your exam, and x-rays when your condition calls for them, come first.
What else is part of the plan
Decompression rarely works alone. To reduce inflammation, improve range of motion, decrease pain and strengthen the structures that support your spine, your plan may also include deep tissue laser, muscle therapy, strength and restoration therapy, moist heat, stretching and stability exercises, and chiropractic specific adjustments. See back pain and neck pain care.
