What is Spinal Decompression?

A spinal decompression therapy system consits of a split table that is programmed by a computer to provide cycling distractive forces along the axis of the lumbar and cervical spine.  The intensity of intermittent force is increased gradually to help prevent muscles from contracting in reaction to being stretched.  With proper positioning, traction can be applied to individual spinal discs to decrease specific neurological nerve pain.
