Have you been struggling with chronic back pain? Have you tried multiple therapies, but none seem to offer any relief? You might want to consider spinal decompression Bakersfield CA therapy. Spinal decompression is designed to alleviate back pain and other related symptoms. This treatment has gained popularity over the years, and many people have reported experiencing significant benefits from the therapy.
Compression of the spinal cord occurs when an inordinate amount of pressure is put on your spine. Your spinal cord is a collection of nerves surrounded by bones called vertebrae. This is an extremely delicate and important part of your body as it does things like send messages to your brain and help you stand upright.
The most common injuries and conditions that affect the spinal cord and cause compression are:
- Gradual wear and tear or osteoarthritis
- Spinal stenosis
- Scoliosis
- Injury
- Tumors on the spine
- Some bone diseases
- Rheumatoid arthritis
- Some infections
- Herniated discs
- Bone spurs
Spinal Decompression Bakersfield CA can be done both surgically as well as non-surgically:
Non-Surgical treatment is a computer-aided technology: It is a motorized traction therapy ( you’ll wear a harness that’s attached to a motorized table) that stretches the spine gently; resulting in a change of force and position of the spine and in turn relieves the spinal discs and nerves of the pressure causing the pain in the first place.
Here the spine is stretched and relaxed intermittently using the accurate calculations of the computer to generate just the right amount of tension to achieve optimal results. It takes about 30 minutes to complete. When the spine is stretched by the machine, fluids fill the discs that have been losing fluids that repair the spinal discs.
Under Surgical Spinal Decompression The surgeon removes a portion of the spine (disc or vertebra) and then reinforces or reshapes the remaining structure to provide relief from the compressed part.
