What is Spinal Decompression Therapy?
Spinal decompression therapy is a non-invasive treatment that gently stretches the spine to reduce disc pressure and relieve nerve irritation. This creates negative pressure between the vertebrae, helping reabsorb bulging or herniated discs, increase nutrient flow, and support natural healing. Many patients choose this therapy to avoid or delay surgical intervention.
At Active Health, we use the DRX9000® Spinal Decompression Table, an FDA-cleared system designed to treat lower back pain and sciatica caused by disc injuries, bulging discs, and facet syndrome. Each session is adjusted for comfort and goals, with clear strategies to help you maintain progress between visits.

Spinal Decompression Therapy
Conditions Spinal Decompression Therapy Can Help Treat
Our approach goes beyond symptom management. We use spinal decompression therapy to address the root contributors to pain and dysfunction, helping patients rebuild control and resilience across a range of conditions:
When a spinal disc is displaced, it can compress nearby nerves, leading to sharp pain, tingling, or muscle weakness. This therapy works by gently relieving pressure on the affected disc, allowing it to return to its proper position and encouraging nutrient flow to facilitate healing.
Sciatica and Nerve Irritation
Lowering compression around nerve roots can ease leg pain, improve sitting tolerance, and restore comfortable walking.
Degenerative Disc Changes
Creating space and promoting fluid exchange supports disc hydration and helps reduce stiffness linked to long-standing compression.
Facet Joint Irritation
Improved spacing between vertebrae can reduce joint stress and support smoother bending, rotation, and daily activity.

Spinal Decompression Therapy FAQs
What is spinal decompression?
Spinal decompression therapy is a non-surgical treatment that gently stretches the spine to relieve pressure on the discs and surrounding nerves. This process helps retract herniated or bulging discs, improves nutrient flow, and reduces pain in the neck or lower back.
How serious is spinal decompression surgery?
Spinal decompression surgery is a major medical procedure that carries certain risks and requires recovery time. It differs from non-surgical therapy and is typically considered only after conservative treatments have been explored and evaluated by your provider.
Does spinal decompression work?
Spinal decompression can be very effective for reducing pain and improving mobility when applied correctly. The best results occur when it’s combined with proper positioning, pacing, and guided exercise progressions tailored to your condition.
Is spinal decompression safe?
Spinal decompression therapy is considered safe and low-risk when performed by trained professionals. As a gentle, non-invasive approach, it’s often recommended before exploring surgical options for managing spinal pain or disc issues.
