Find Relief From Herniated Discs With Spinal Decompression
Herniated discs occur when the inner gel-like core of a spinal disc protrudes through its outer layer, often compressing nearby nerves and resulting in pain, numbness, or weakness. Spinal decompression therapy offers a non-invasive, effective alternative to surgery and medication. At ABChiropractic Family & Wellness in St. Charles, MO, we utilize the advanced KDT decompression table to provide relief for our patients.
Understanding Spinal Decompression Therapy
Spinal decompression therapy is a non-surgical procedure designed to relieve pressure on spinal discs and nerves. By gently stretching the spine, this therapy creates negative pressure within the discs. This can help retract the herniated disc, moving it back into its proper position and alleviating pressure on the nerves.
The KDT Decompression Table
The KDT decompression table is a state-of-the-art device that enhances the effectiveness of spinal decompression therapy. It is designed with advanced technology to provide precise and controlled decompression. Here’s how we use the KDT decompression table to treat herniated discs:
- Customized Treatment – The KDT decompression table allows for customized settings for each patient. By adjusting the angle and force of the decompression, the therapy can target the exact location of the herniated disc.
- Gentle and Controlled – The table uses gentle, controlled traction to stretch the spine. This ensures a safe and comfortable experience.
- Effective Pain Relief – By reducing the pressure on the herniated disc and nerves, spinal decompression therapy can significantly alleviate pain. Patients often experience relief after just a few sessions.
- Promotes Healing – Creating negative pressure within the discs not only helps reposition the herniated material but also encourages the flow of nutrients, oxygen, and fluids, promoting natural healing and disc regeneration.
The Spinal Decompression Process
At ABChiropractic Family & Wellness, our chiropractors begin with a thorough patient evaluation. They will review your medical history, conduct a physical examination, and use diagnostic imaging if necessary to identify the exact location and severity of the herniated disc.
During the decompression session, you will lie comfortably on the table and be secured with a harness. The table then gently stretches your spine, following a precise, computer-controlled algorithm, supervised by our chiropractors. Each session typically lasts between 15 to 20 minutes.
Comprehensive Care for Herniated Discs
Spinal decompression therapy is often complemented with other treatments to enhance recovery. Our chiropractors may incorporate chiropractic adjustments, physical therapy, and lifestyle advice to support your healing process.
