Spinal decompression therapy is a non-surgical treatment outcome for herniated or bulging discs in the neck and lower back. Anyone who has back, neck, arm or leg pain may be helped by spinal decompression therapy.

The number of sessions needed and your specific treatment plan will be determined by the doctor after your examination.

In almost all cases, the treatments are completely painless. In fact, some patients fall asleep during the spinal decompression session.

What type of decompression system is used and is the doctor certified in spinal decompression therapy?

After a significant amount of research, our office chose what we believe to be the most sophisticated, technologically advanced, state-of-the-art decompression system in the world.

After a significant amount of research, our office chose what we believe to be the most sophisticated, technologically advanced, state-of-the-art decompression system in the world. We also selected this decompression system due to its ability to treat discs in both the neck and the low back.

Dr. Pyne has treated disc problems for 20+ years, first with flexion-distraction and now with spinal decompression. Now that the technique has advanced to decompression, we see even severe cases doing well and going on to full pain relief, full work duties and back to participating in sports including golf and distance biking.

In regard to clinical skills, Dr. Warren Pyne has over 100 hours of post graduate training in treating disc disorder and failed back surgery with flexion-distraction and now with the new spinal decompression technique. Dr. Pyne also has completed a 3-year post-graduate neurology residency program.

Doctor skill combined with the table and computerized flexion-distraction head are the keys.

Proper assessment, correct positioning and the use of preprogramming patterns of distraction and relaxation may reduce disc pressure allowing necessary nutrients to enliven and accelerate disc healing.

Anyone who has back pain or neck pain caused in whole or in part by a damaged disc may be helped by spinal decompression therapy. These conditions include herniated, protruding or bulging discs, spinal stenosis, sciatica or even prior or unsuccessful back surgery.

Are there medical studies that document the effectiveness of Spinal Decompression Therapy?

Yes! One study documented by MRI up to 90% reduction of disc herniations in 10 of 14 cases and other studies reported that the majority of ruptured disc patients achieved "good" to "excellent" results after spinal decompression therapy.

Spinal decompression therapy is not recommended for patients who have severe osteoporosis, severe nerve damage, joint infections, neoplasm or other conditions that have compromised the bone. If you are unsure of your condition just call 508-238-8521 and ask to speak with the doctor.

Spinal surgery with instrumentation (screws, metal plates or “cages”) is also contraindicated. However, spinal decompression therapy after bone fusion or non-fusion surgery, can be performed.

Do most patients receive therapy and rehabilitative exercises in addition to Spinal Decompression Therapy?

To reduce inflammation and assist the healing process, supporting structures are treated with passive therapies (ice/heat/muscle stimulation), chiropractic adjustments (as indicated) and/or active rehabilitation in order to strengthen the spinal musculature.

We want to make it easy for you to learn if you are a candidate for spinal decompression therapy. Just call our office at 508-238-8521 to arrange a consultation with one of our doctors.

Please remember to bring any MRI, CAT scans, EMG, or x-ray reports so the doctor can review them and best advise you about your treatment options
