A Noninvasive Way to Stop Back Pain

Back pain can be linked to any condition, but regardless of the cause, its daily impact on your life can be profound. When chronic pain limits your favorite activities and affects your overall well-being, it's time to consider a better solution. If you want to escape back pain while avoiding invasive surgery, call Pure Chiropractic & Disc Rehabilitation today. Dr. Kevin Fischer specializes in alleviating pain connected to various back problems through non-surgical spinal decompression at our Monmouth County office.

What is Spinal Decompression?

Many forms of back pain are directly linked to compressed discs and nerves in your spine. When these delicate structures experience excessive pressure, they can cause various types of discomfort. Spinal decompression uses advanced computer technology to strategically target specific discs. This precise, controlled treatment relieves pressure from affected discs and nerves with remarkable accuracy.

How Does It Work?

You will be fitted with a specialized harness around your pelvis and trunk. You'll then lie comfortably on our advanced computer-controlled decompression table. This state-of-the-art equipment features a unique design where the lower portion moves precisely while the upper section remains stable.

Throughout your 30-40 minute session, the table's computerized system creates gentle, intermittent stretching and relaxation cycles that target specific areas of your spine. This calculated movement pattern helps decompress problematic discs and promote natural healing.

Benefits of
Spinal Decompression

By precisely relieving pressure on spinal discs, allowing vital fluids to return to the disc center. This rehydration process enhances the discs' ability to cushion your vertebrae and helps guide bulging discs back to their proper position. Beyond immediate pain relief, this innovative treatment creates an optimal healing environment, promoting long-term recovery and restored functionality.

Recovery After Spinal Decompression

Most patients at Pure Chiropractic & Disc Rehabilitation start to feel significant relief after their first few spinal decompression sessions. While initial improvements are often noticeable quickly, full treatment benefits may develop over several weeks or longer, depending on your condition.

As you progress through your treatment plan, you'll likely experience increased energy levels and a shift from constant to occasional discomfort.

How Does Spinal Decompression Compare To Other Treatments?

When considering treatment options for your back pain, it's essential to consider long-term effectiveness and safety, not just initial expenses.

Here's how spinal decompression compares to alternative treatments for chronic pain:

Back Surgery: While typically covered by insurance, surgery involves significantly higher costs, especially for those without coverage. More importantly, it carries substantial risks and often doesn't deliver the promised results.
Conventional Chiropractic Adjustments: While similar in cost to spinal decompression, traditional adjustments alone may not provide the comprehensive solution needed for complex disc issues.

Spinal Injections: Though commonly prescribed, injections can be both costly and painful, offering only temporary relief without addressing the underlying cause.
Pain Medications: While seemingly more affordable initially, medication only masks symptoms without treating the root cause. Additionally, long-term use carries risks of dependency and other health complications.
At Pure Chiropractic & Disc Rehabilitation, we view spinal decompression as a worthwhile investment in your long-term health. This safe, non-invasive approach offers sustainable relief without the risks associated with surgery or medications.

Impactful

Back surgery outcomes can vary dramatically, with failure rates ranging from 10% to 74%. While some patients experience a 50% reduction in pain, complete relief is rare, and many find their discomfort returns within years. Given the inherent risks and lengthy recovery period, surgical intervention may not be the best choice unless absolutely necessary. For those seeking relief from back pain, non-surgical spinal decompression offered in Monmouth presents a safer, highly effective alternative treatment option.

Spinal surgery can involve post-operative pain and discomfort that may persist for up to 6 weeks, with the most intense pain subsiding after about 4 weeks. In contrast, non-surgical spinal decompression is a pain-free treatment with minimal to no side effects. While optimal results may develop over 4 to 6 weeks, many patients experience pain reduction earlier in their treatment course. Best of all, you won't have to worry about the procedure itself causing additional discomfort or soreness.

Ideal candidates are adults (18 or older) who can commit to a consistent treatment schedule over several weeks. However, certain conditions may mean this therapy isn't the best option for you. Patients with severe osteoporosis, spinal infections, recent spinal fractures, or those with surgical hardware in the spine (such as metal screws or rods) may not be suitable candidates for this treatment.
