Lumbar and cervical decompression therapy helps relieve chronic back and neck pain. There are many factors that contribute to the onset of such pain, such as poor posture, injury, arthritis, repetitive stress and natural aging. Such factors are responsible for chronic spine problems such as spinal stenosis, facet syndrome, herniated disc, degenerative disc, sciatica, internal disc derangement and more.

A Non-surgical, Non-invasive Treatment Option

Lumbar and cervical decompression therapy or LCD therapy is safe, effective and does not involve the use of medication or surgical procedures. The main function of the therapy is to allow the damaged disc to heal itself and relieve back and neck pain. The treatment itself does not cause much discomfort.

Lumbar and cervical decompression therapy is performed using a therapeutic table connected to a computer. The patient simply lies down in a horizontal position and a comfortable harness is attached around the waist. A gentle, vertical force is applied to the spinal column, which decompresses the vertebrae. The process creates a vacuum effect, which pulls herniated or bulging discs back into their rightful positions between vertebrae, relieving the pressure on nerve roots.

Benefits of LCD Therapy

Lumbar and cervical decompression therapy relieves pain and allows discs to recover naturally, as well as reducing inflammation in facet joints. The treatment helps to provide improved mobility, decrease pain, and has no negative side effects. There aren’t any elaborate processes involved in the treatment as well. It can help patients get back to their life and work without the debilitating back and neck pain getting in the way.
