Chronic back pain affects millions of Americans every year, limiting mobility, disrupting sleep, and lowering overall quality of life. Dr. Aaron Dalton offers a natural, non-surgical approach to relieving this pain through spinal decompression therapy. This advanced treatment helps correct spinal imbalances, restore disc health, and provide lasting relief - without the need for medication or invasive procedures.

What Is Spinal Decompression?

Spinal decompression therapy is a gentle, computer-controlled technique that carefully stretches the spine to relieve pressure on the spinal discs and surrounding nerves. Over time, poor posture, injuries, or the natural aging process can cause these discs to compress, bulge, or even rupture, resulting in chronic pain and limited motion.

During spinal decompression, negative pressure is created between the vertebrae, allowing bulging or herniated discs to retract to their normal position. This process increases circulation to the discs, promoting the flow of oxygen, water, and essential nutrients that are necessary for healing damaged tissue.

How Spinal Decompression Works

The therapy is performed using a specialized decompression table that is designed to gently separate the vertebrae in a controlled and precise manner. You’ll lie comfortably while a harness system supports your spine as it undergoes a rhythmic cycle of gentle stretching and relaxation.

Each session typically lasts around 30 minutes, and most patients experience little to no discomfort. Many even report a feeling of deep relaxation during the process. Depending on your condition, Dr. Dalton will recommend a personalized treatment plan, which may include a series of decompression sessions combined with chiropractic adjustments, corrective exercises, and soft tissue therapy to ensure long-term results.

Conditions That May Benefit from Spinal Decompression

Spinal decompression therapy is highly effective for a wide range of spinal and nerve-related conditions, including:

• Herniated or bulging discs - Helps relieve nerve pressure and reduce inflammation.

• Degenerative disc disease - Restores hydration and nutrient flow to aging spinal discs.

• Sciatica - Reduces compression on the sciatic nerve, alleviating leg pain and numbness.

• Spinal stenosis - Creates more space in the spinal canal to reduce nerve irritation.

• Chronic neck or lower back pain - Relieves tension and improves spinal alignment.

• Facet syndrome and pinched nerves - Decreases pressure on sensitive spinal joints.

If you’ve been told that back surgery is your only option, spinal decompression may provide the natural relief you’ve been looking for.
