What is Decompression
Decompression therapy is a painless and nonsurgical treatment that has revolutionized the treatment of chronic low back pain and neck pain as it involves the stretching of spine which facilitates healing and restores normal functioning of spine. However, the spine provides support for your body. But spinal injuries or degeneration results in the discs sitting between the bones of the spine lose fluid and thus, the spine becomes compressed and there is less protection between each bone. This compression can block the nerves from sending and receiving messages from the central nervous system and brain, which leads to chronic pain. Thus, the goal is to stretch your spine and change its position to take pressure off of your spinal discs. This is done by pulling in the opposite direction of gravity which will increase the space between your vertebrae or between your vertebrae and nerves. Thus, physiotherapy clinics in Surrey use decompression treatment with the goals of relieving pain and inflammation in the back or neck and prevent surgery from being necessary by promoting an optimal healing environment.

Where it is use?
The decompression spinal treatment is mainly used to treat cervical and lumbar conditions. It is used in treating following condition: Bulging disc (when a cushion between vertebrae bulges out), Herniated disc (when part of a disc pushes on a nerve), Pinched nerves (when a nerve gets pinched i.e., compressed)causing numbness or pain or tingling, Sciatica ( damage to your sciatic nerve results in thigh and leg pain), Spinal stenosis (narrowing of spaces in your spine due to bone spurs or bulging or herniated discs), Degenerative disc disease, arthritis of spine (when the cushion between vertebrae starts wearing out), Post -surgical patients, Facet syndrome.
Cervical Decompression
Cervical spinal decompression is mainly performed using manual, mechanical, or motorized methods or with the use of a supine posterior distraction unit for neck pain and related injuries. It is used to stretch the cervical spinal vertebrae and muscles to relieve pressure and pain. The disc is a circular structure that sits between each vertebra in the spine but due to degenerative changes in the cervical vertebrae causes narrowing of the spinal canal where the spinal cord passes and nerve roots exit. Thus, the compression of these nervous system structures leads to the following symptoms: pain, weakness, numbness, etc. This becomes progressively worse over time. Thus, physiotherapy clinics in Surrey use this therapy as it helps to relax the muscles, which can significantly relieve pain and stiffness and increase flexibility. In Mechanical decompression, a harness is attached to your head and neck. The harness hooks up to a machine or system of weights that apply a traction force to pull your head away from your neck and spine. Thus, this may lead to improved mobility, range of motion (ROM), and alignment and you will be able to do daily activities with greater ease.
Lumbar Decompression
Lumbar decompression is the process of applying a stretching force to the lumbar vertebrae in a relaxed intermittently or continuously in a controlled manner with the aid of advanced computer technology. It is a gentle, nonsurgical way to separate the spaces between your vertebrae, the bones that make up your spine. Thus, this process creates a negative intradiscal pressure and stimulates blood flow through your spine, and promotes long-term healing. During this therapy you are fully clothed. The clinical physiotherapist fits you with a harness around your pelvis and another around your trunk. You either lie face down or face up on a computer-controlled table. Then, the physiotherapist operates the computer, customizing treatment to your specific needs. While, during this slow, gentle treatment, you’ll feel your spine being alternately stretched and relaxed. Because the computer system continuously monitors your spinal resistance as well as any involuntary “guarding” response your body may have, it’s able to adjust the force as needed to keep you relaxed and help prevent muscle spasms. Thus, if you feel uncomfortable during the procedure, a patient safety switch allows you to stop the treatment at any point. Lumbar decompression sessions last for about 30 minutes, as you may experience pain relief after your first couple of sessions, and the average treatment protocol consists of 15-30 sessions spaced over the course of 4-6 weeks. Hence, this treatment is often combined with physical therapy and additional modalities, such as electric stimulation, ultrasound, and cold and/or heat therapy applied during or after the procedure.
Decompression is a painless treatment that involves the stretching of the spine which facilitates healing and restores normal functioning of the spine.
The most common side effect of decompression is a dull, achy soreness for the first week or two as the body becomes accustomed to being stretched and decompressed.
The Decompression is contraindicated in broken vertebrae, spinal fusion, artificial disc or other implants, pregnancy, spinal tumors.
Cervical decompression is the process of applying stretching force to the cervical vertebrae to relieve neck pain in neck and related injuries. This treatment is able to take pressure off the disc, and introduce blood flow into the disc, which allows disc bulges or herniations to heal.
Lumbar decompression is the process of applying a stretching force to the lumbar vertebrae and relieves pain in back and related injuries by reducing the intradiscal pressure.
