Spinal Decompression / Traction Therapy
At Pramukh Advance Physiotherapy Center, we specialize in non-surgical treatments to relieve back and neck pain. One of our most effective methods is Spinal Decompression Therapy, a gentle and advanced form of traction therapy designed to reduce pressure on the spine and help you regain a pain-free, active life.
What is Spinal Decompression Therapy?
Spinal Decompression Therapy is a non-invasive, drug-free technique used to relieve pressure on spinal discs and nerves. It works by gently stretching the spine in a controlled manner, creating space between the vertebrae, which helps rehydrate the discs, reduce nerve compression, and promote natural healing.
It’s an ideal option for individuals suffering from chronic spinal conditions, especially those looking to avoid surgery.
How Spinal Decompression Works
Using a specialized traction table or mechanical device, your spine is slowly and carefully stretched. This helps:
- Relieve pressure from herniated or bulging discs
- Reduce compression on spinal nerves
- Improve circulation to the spine and discs
- Promote healing of injured spinal structures
- Reduce pain, numbness, and tingling sensations
Sessions are safe, comfortable, and customized to each individual’s condition and tolerance.
