Introducing Chiropractic Decompression Therapy at Awaken Chiropractic & Sports Medicine
At Awaken Chiropractic & Sports Medicine, we are committed to providing cutting-edge solutions to enhance your health and well-being. We’re excited to introduce the chiropractic decompression table to our lineup of services, a highly effective tool for addressing spinal health issues and improving overall quality of life.
What is a Chiropractic Decompression Table?
A chiropractic decompression table is a specialized device used to perform spinal decompression therapy. This non-invasive treatment gently stretches the spine to alleviate pressure on spinal discs and nerves. It’s designed to create a controlled environment where your spine can heal naturally, helping to relieve pain and improve mobility.
The decompression table can be used to target specific areas of the spine, whether it’s the cervical (neck) or lumbar (lower back) region, and the treatment is customized to meet your unique needs.
Who Can Benefit from Spinal Decompression Therapy?
Spinal decompression is particularly beneficial for individuals experiencing:
- Herniated or bulging discs: Reduces disc bulges and promotes nutrient flow to damaged areas.
- Degenerative disc disease: Relieves pain caused by worn spinal discs.
- Sciatica: Eases pressure on the sciatic nerve to reduce leg pain and numbness.
- Spinal stenosis: Provides relief from nerve compression caused by narrowing spinal canals.
- Chronic back or neck pain: Addresses persistent discomfort when other treatments haven’t worked.
- Postural imbalances: Encourages proper spinal alignment and relieves tension from poor posture.
How Does It Work?
Spinal decompression uses the principles of traction therapy. Patients lie comfortably on the decompression table, where gentle, controlled pulling forces are applied to the spine. This creates negative pressure in the spinal discs, encouraging:
- Rehydration of discs: Nutrients and oxygen are drawn into the discs, promoting healing.
- Reduction in nerve compression: The pressure on spinal nerves is alleviated, reducing pain and inflammation.
- Improved spinal alignment: Decompression creates space for the spine to return to its natural position.
Why Choose Spinal Decompression Therapy?
- Non-Invasive: This therapy is a safe alternative to surgery or medications.
- Personalized Treatment: The table’s settings are adjusted to suit your condition and comfort level.
- Fast Recovery: Patients often experience relief after just a few sessions.
- Supports Long-Term Wellness: Combined with chiropractic care, it can significantly improve spinal health and prevent future issues.
What to Expect During Your Session

- Comfortable Treatment: You’ll relax on the table while the treatment is administered. Sessions typically last 20–30 minutes.
