Chronic back or neck pain can make everyday life difficult, especially when it limits your ability to work, exercise, or simply enjoy time with family. For many patients, spinal decompression therapy offers a safe, effective, and non-surgical alternative to managing disc-related pain. At Hometown Medical Center in Waxahachie, we provide this innovative treatment to help you find meaningful, lasting relief.
What Is Spinal Decompression?
Spinal decompression is a motorized traction therapy that gently stretches the spine, creating negative pressure within the intervertebral discs. This negative pressure can help retract or reposition herniated or bulging disc material, promote the flow of nutrients and oxygen into the disc, and support the body's natural healing processes.
Conditions Treated with Spinal Decompression
Herniated or bulging discs
Degenerative disc disease
Sciatica (pain radiating down the leg)
Spinal stenosis
Chronic lower back pain
Neck pain related to disc issues
What to Expect During Treatment
Spinal decompression sessions are comfortable and typically last 30–45 minutes. You remain fully clothed and lie on a specialized table. A harness is gently fitted around your hips, and the lower portion of the table moves to create the decompression effect. Most patients find the sessions relaxing and report significant improvement over a series of treatments.
Is Spinal Decompression Right for You?
Not everyone is a candidate for spinal decompression. Our team at Hometown Medical Center will conduct a thorough evaluation to determine whether this therapy is appropriate for your condition. Contraindications include severe osteoporosis, fractures, spinal tumors, and certain other conditions.
