Spinal Decompression
State of the Art Decompression Therapy

Find Lasting Relief Without Surgery
If you're struggling with chronic back pain, neck pain, sciatica, a pinched nerve, or pain that radiates into your arms or legs, you don't have to simply live with it. At Matrix Chiropractic, we offer non surgical spinal decompression to help relieve pressure on injured discs, reduce nerve irritation, and support your body's natural healing process.
​
What Is Spinal Decompression?
Spinal decompression is a gentle, computerized therapy that uses precise, controlled stretching to reduce pressure on the discs and nerves of the spine. Unlike traditional traction, spinal decompression carefully alternates between periods of distraction and relaxation, allowing the muscles to remain relaxed while specifically targeting the injured spinal segment.
This creates negative pressure, or a vacuum effect, within the disc that may help:
-
Reduce pressure on compressed nerves
-
Encourage bulging or herniated discs to retract
-
Improve the flow of oxygen, water, and nutrients into damaged discs
-
Support the body's natural healing process
-
Reduce pain while improving movement and function
Because spinal discs have a limited blood supply, spinal decompression helps create an environment that allows the discs to heal more effectively.
​
Conditions Spinal Decompression May Help
Spinal decompression may benefit patients experiencing:
-
Herniated or bulging discs

​
What to Expect
Each spinal decompression session lasts approximately 12 minutes. During treatment, you'll lie comfortably on a specialized decompression table while the system gently alternates between stretching and relaxation. Most patients find the treatment comfortable and relaxing, and many even use the time to unwind.
Every treatment plan is customized to your condition and goals. While many patients begin noticing improvement within the first several visits, healing time varies depending on the severity and duration of your condition.
​
Is Spinal Decompression Right for You?
Not everyone is a candidate for spinal decompression, which is why every patient begins with a thorough consultation and examination. Dr. Molly will evaluate your symptoms, review any necessary imaging, and determine whether spinal decompression is the most appropriate treatment for your condition.
