Lumbar Decompression Therapy
Relieve Back Pain & Restore Mobility with Non-Surgical Decompression
Lumbar Decompression Therapy is a non-invasive, motorized treatment designed to stretch the spine and relieve built-up pressure gently. During the session, you’ll be positioned on a specialized decompression table, where a harness wraps around your lower back. Controlled traction is then applied to create space between your vertebrae, allowing fluid, oxygen, and nutrients to re-enter the discs—helping them heal naturally.
How Does It Work?
Lumbar Decompression Therapy works by gently stretching your spine to relieve pressure on your discs and nerves.
During the session, you’ll lie on a comfortable decompression table, and a harness will be secured around your lower back. The table then applies a gentle, controlled pull, creating space between your vertebrae. This allows:
