Spinal Decompression Therapy in Jacksonville, FL
Non-Surgical Relief for Disc Issues and Chronic Back Pain
At Dodd Chiropractic Clinic, we offer non-surgical spinal decompression therapy to help patients suffering from chronic neck or back pain, herniated discs, degenerative disc disease, sciatica, and more. This safe and gentle treatment helps relieve pressure on the spine while promoting natural healing—without injections or surgery.
What Is Spinal Decompression Therapy?
Spinal decompression therapy is a computer-guided traction technique that gradually stretches the spine in a controlled manner. This creates negative pressure within the spinal discs, which can help:
-
Retract herniated or bulging discs away from nerves
-
Increase nutrient and oxygen flow to the discs for better healing
-
Relieve nerve compression associated with conditions like sciatica or spinal stenosis
It’s a non-invasive alternative to spinal surgery, designed to provide lasting relief and help restore mobility.
Common Conditions Treated
Spinal decompression is particularly effective for:
-
Herniated or Bulging Discs – Helps relieve pain and numbness caused by disc pressure on nerves
-
Degenerative Disc Disease – Improves disc hydration and helps slow disc degeneration
-
Sciatica – Eases radiating pain from the lower back through the legs
-
Spinal Stenosis – Helps relieve nerve compression and stiffness
-
Chronic Low Back or Neck Pain – Especially in cases that haven’t responded to other treatments
What to Expect During Treatment
Patients lie comfortably on a specialized table while a computer system controls the gentle traction movements. Sessions typically last 15 to 30 minutes, and most treatment plans include multiple sessions over several weeks. The procedure is painless and relaxing—many patients report significant improvement after just a few visits.
