Spinal decompression is a non-invasive alternative to surgery that relieves spine pain, regardless of the severity of symptoms. The therapy combines advanced manual therapy with drug-free treatment of back pain.
The therapy involves applying precisely targeted decompression forces to individual joints of the spine. Decompression forces occur in the form of automatic and controlled cycles. This leads to the enlargement of intervertebral spaces, increased blood perfusion while improving disk hydration and restoring proper joint flexibility. Appropriate positioning allows you to direct decompression forces to the damaged motor segments of the spine, making the therapy extremely precise and focusing on the area affected by the dysfunction. A multi-part table with adjustable angles allows for maximum personalization of therapy to the needs of each patient.
SPINE DECOMPRESSION IS RECOMMENDED, INCLUDING: IN CASE OF:
• degenerative changes,
• chronic lower back pain,
• cervical or lumbar discopathy,
• back pain qualifying the patient for spine surgery,
• scoliosis.
THERAPEUTIC EFFECTS AND INDICATIONS
JOINT MOBILIZATION AND DISTRACTION
Distraction involves the mechanical separation of two joint surfaces, which causes
that synovial fluid fills the interarticular space. This causes less friction, making movements smoother and painless.
Distraction and repeated joint mobilization movements stimulate mechanoreceptors to:
• increasing the flow of synovial fluid,
• improving blood circulation,
• normalize joint flexibility
SPINE DECOMPRESSION
Uses repetitive decompression forces that reduce pain through traction and mobilization of joints as well as relaxation and elongation of soft tissues, which in turn may contribute to restoring proper body posture.
LOOSENING AND ELONGING SOFT TISSUE
The widening of the intervertebral spaces causes stretching of the anterior and posterior longitudinal ligaments and intervertebral ligaments. Muscle relaxation is achieved by:
• inhibition of alpha motor neurons
• stimulation of Golgi tendon organs.
