Spinal Decompression vs. Traction
Spinal Decompression and Chiropractic Care for Back Pain Relief
How Chiropractic Care Can Treat Back Pain
Spinal decompression is focused on the re-alignment of the spine to relieve pressure on the nervous system or remove nerve interferences and eventually relieve pain and stimulate the body’s healthy state. Dr. Johnson gently applies rhythmic traction force while you lay on the spinal decompression table to decompress your spine, improving the natural circulation of essential nutrients, mineral and water to the damaged or affected disc. Through spinal decompression, damaged disc are allowed to naturally mend and regenerate. Lower back pain is one of the most common conditions treated by Dr. Johnson at his Houston chiropractic center.
