What is traction/spinal decompression?
Traction/Spinal decompression is non-invasive therapeutic care used to treat patients suffering from neck and back pain. It requires the use of a specially designed technological table connected to an advanced computer. The tractive force produced by the setup causes the spine to decompress (unload), which improves the blood flow and helps ease the pain within the neck and back. Controlling the traction head provides a gentle stretch which helps to relax the spine, muscles, and capsule, making injured disc and soft tissue to be treated.
Conditions that can be treated with traction/spine decomposition therapy
Spine decomposition is specially designed to treat conditions that form compression within the vertebrae causing inflammation, pain, nerve compression, excessive pressure at the neck and back. These include;
- Sciatica and prolonged low back pain
- Worn spinal joints
- Injured spinal nerves
- Degenerative disc disease
- Cervical disc pain
- Failed surgery
- Bulging and protruding disc
- Cervical and lumbar central stenosis
- Pinched nerves
- Scoliosis
- Carpal tunnel syndrome
- Compression fracture
- Cervical and lumbar facet syndrome
How can traction/spine decomposition therapy relieve my pain?
Traction/ spine decomposition is very effective for chronic neck and back pain. Research has shown that one of the leading causes of disability among Canadians below the age of 45 is neck and back pain, while it is the third leading cause for those above 45 years. Globally, it has been noticed that lots of people suffer from neck and back pain while alive.
The human spine is made up of dozens of bones stacked up one after another. There is a gel-like disc referred to as the intervertebral disc that helps to position and cushion these bones. Repetitive movement of the spine and poor posture causes the joint around the spine to degenerate, which often affects the intervertebral disc, causing neck and pain.
At Momentum Spine and Sports Physiotherapy Clinic, we use this painless and non-surgical therapy technique by identifying the affected position before telling you to lay flat (face up) on a traction table. Your therapist will input the parameters into the computer; pressure in the spine is then relieved depending on the recommended duration.
