Frequently Asked Questions



What is Spinal Decompression Therapy?




 


Spinal decompression therapy for the relief of back, neck, arm, or leg pain associated with herniated or bulging discs is an FDA- cleared, non-surgical treatment that has a high success rate, even after failed surgery.

During the spinal decompression procedure, distraction and relaxation phases for an isolated disc are cycled through.  This places the disc under negative pressure, causing a vacuum effect within it.

Because of the negative pressure created around the spinal disc, material that has protruded or herniated can be pulled back within the normal boundaries of the disc, thereby hastening healing and relieving pain.
 



What spinal decompression system is used?

We use the Triton DTS system manufactured by the Chattanooga Group, the premier manufacturer of physical medicine equipment.   We also selected the Triton® DTS systems due to their ability to treat discs in both the neck and the low back.

If you have any x-rays or MRI reports, please bring them with you when you first meet with Dr. Blake so he can review them and advise you about your treatment options.  If you have not yet been evaluated for your condition, Dr. Blake can make a complete evaluation, and arrange for any X-rays or MRI, if they're necessary.
