Spinal Decompression

Certain patients may be suffering from "pinched nerves" or bulging discs in the low back (so-called positive pressure inside the disc). Many times these disc bulges cause radiating pain into the back and down the leg in a classic version of sciatica.

After delivering any essential chiropractic adjustments to your low back, Dr. Kyle Johnson can also use specialized machines available at our Peoria chiropractic office to gently create negative pressure inside the disc through a course of non-surgical lumbar decompression therapy. Spinal decompression therapy is a safe, comfortable, and effective alternative to surgical intervention, and can even provide relief if such intervention has already been attempted.

Spinal decompression therapy works by opening the space between the vertebrae, creating a vacuum inside the disc itself which draws the bulging material back into place. By reducing the disc bulge, the doctor hopes to reduce the irritation on the nerves exiting the spinal cord near that bulge. And by reducing the irritation on the nerves, you will feel less pain. In addition, this process also attempts to restore the appropriate nutrient supply to the starved disc bulge, resulting in a healthy vertebral disc.

If a similar condition arises in your neck, procedures such as non-surgical cervical decompression therapy, cervical traction, or cervical curve restoration have also been shown to be highly effective. These treatments are properly and safely delivered at Johnson Family Chiropractic of Peoria by a Peoria chiropractor: Dr. Kyle Johnson.
