Decompression Therapy at the Hanson Chiropractic Center
A Non-Surgical Solution for Back, Neck, and Disc Pain.
Decompression therapy at Hanson Chiropractic Center in Edmond works by gently reducing the pressure inside damaged spinal discs, giving irritated and compressed nerves the space to recover. If you’re dealing with sciatica, a herniated disc, degenerative disc disease, or neck pain radiating into your arms, this non-surgical approach targets the structural cause of your symptoms rather than masking them. Most patients find the treatment comfortable, and many notice meaningful improvement within the early weeks of a care plan, though individual results depend on the condition, its severity, and how long symptoms have been present.
We’re excited to now offer:
- Spinal Decompression
- Class IV Laser Therapy
- Safe, Non-Invasive, Drug-Free
- Advanced treatment options for pain relief, disc recovery, and inflammation reduction.
Understanding Disc Pressure
Pressure in the disc grows high enough to tear the disc wall, allowing inner material to push outward and press on nearby nerve roots. This is what produces the shooting or burning pain most people know as sciatica. A reduction of pressure inside the disc — decompression — aids in pulling nutrients, oxygen, and moisture back in, creating conditions the disc needs to recover.
What It Treats:
- Herniated, bulging, or degenerative discs
- Sciatica and nerve compression
- Headaches related to spinal issues
- Arm and leg numbness or tingling
- Failed back surgery cases (evaluated individually)
How It Works:
Decompression gently stretches the spine to reduce disc pressure. This promotes nutrient flow, disc rehydration, and healing. Decompression therapy addresses disc and nerve irritation at the source, not just the surface symptoms.
Decompression Therapy Benefits
- Avoids surgery and anesthesia
- Improves mobility and reduces pain
- Promotes healing of discs and surrounding tissues
- Many patients report improvement within their first several visits. Individual results vary.
Post-Treatment Care:
Your doctor may recommend specific exercises to strengthen spinal stabilizers and maintain long-term results.
