Spinal Decompression Therapy is an advanced, non-surgical treatment designed to relieve pressure on spinal discs and nerves.

Whether you’re recovering from an auto injury, managing disc-related pain, or dealing with chronic neck and back discomfort, Spinal Decompression Therapy offers an effective solution.
How Spinal Decompression Therapy Works
Spinal Decompression Therapy uses a specialized table to gently stretch the spine, creating negative pressure within the discs. This negative pressure encourages herniated or bulging discs to retract, relieving pressure on the surrounding nerves. It also increases blood flow and nutrient delivery to the affected areas, promoting healing and reducing inflammation.

What to Expect During Spinal Decompression Therapy
During a Spinal Decompression Therapy session, you’ll lie comfortably on a decompression table, where a harness is placed around your hips or neck, depending on the area being treated. The table then applies gentle traction to stretch the spine, relieving pressure on the discs and nerves. Sessions typically last 20-30 minutes, and most patients find the treatment relaxing. A series of sessions is often recommended for optimal results.

So my story:
I had a bad car accident back in 2017 that fractured my left wrist, one of my ribs, my neck seized up and couldent move it to the left, and did something to my lower back where later on it went out where it was consistently going out of alignment. Think of you back as an upside down T, as the ( --- ) is the hips/waist and the ( | ) as the spine. My Spine is a (《 ) and my hips is ( / ), higher on one side then the other. This has caused excessive pain at some points. 8 years later I'm still going for monthly maintenance to keep everything in check. My neck can move after a few treatments and I still get the "rice crispy cereal popping sound" but I don't think that'll ever go away but it's jot as loud and I can move my neck. My lower back is the stubborn problem at this point.
They started doing the shockwave therapy maybe a few years ago at this point and I was a difficult patient to get to try it with all the adjustments and the money I was spending when my back would flare up and really be out of alignment and sometimes have 3 visits a week. I gave in and started the shockwave which made them so happy, and myself after. It was night an day difference. Now I know if I have a flairup that option is there. Due to how well the shockwave treatment works, I have not had many flairups because it works. It breaks down the swelling, inflammation, scar tissue, increases blood flow...etc. My muscles are not pulling my waist as tight in one direction anymore.
Now my most recent issue which one would think why the Chiropractor for this. I woke up the other week and couldent walk on my foot. Thought I stepped wrong at work and pulled a muscle. Over a few days it swelled and got worse. I ended up calling the office to get in for Shockwave knowing it helped my back before. I had, and have, Edema in my right foot, ankle, and calf. It was swollen. Like a balloon. They did the shock and Dr Chris told me to still see my primary which I did and found the reason for it and treating that as well. The Shockwave therapy REMOVED AND DRAINED THE EDEMA!!!! It's not a one time fix due to the cause of the Edema but just had another treatment and still a few more to go. The progress is amazing. I'll upload the before and after pic and you can determine yourself. It's just WOW!
Like i said, I love the treatment, the staff, and I'll continue to come here because if it wasn't for them, I'd be falling apart more then I am now. They keep me tuned up.
(Sorry the after pic of my un swollen foot doesn't show much of the ankle)
You’re not just another appointment on their schedule—they make you feel seen, heard, and cared for. After experiencing the level of care here, I can confidently say I will never go to another chiropractic office again. This team has set the bar incredibly high, and I’m so grateful to have found them.
