(This treatment may not be right for you. Please consult your doctor/practitioner to figure out what is best for you.) What is Decompression?
Spinal decompression is a treatment that gently stretches the spine. This takes pressure off compressed discs and nerves in your back. It helps to create negative space inside the discs to help move any bulging or herniated discs. Decompression improves blood flow in the area as well as reduces chronic back pain.
What is Traction?
Spinal traction uses manual force to stretch the spine. This can help relieve short-term or acute back pain, not chronic pain. Traction provides short-term relief for muscle tightness, tension, and overall back stiffness. This is ideal for those with muscle spasms in the back or limited joint mobility.
