If you are struggling with chronic back or neck pain, you may have heard of spinal decompression therapy but are hesitant to try it because you’re worried it might be painful. The short answer is: No, non-surgical spinal decompression is designed to be a gentle, comfortable, and relaxing experience.
Gentle and Non-Invasive
Contrary to what some people have been told, non-surgical spinal decompression is a non-invasive procedure that is very different from “surgical spinal decompression.” While surgery involves downtime and recovery, this therapy focuses on providing relief without the need for needles or incisions.

Most patients find the treatment surprisingly pleasant. Common feedback from our sessions includes:
