Why the pain keeps coming back
For many people, it's a pressure problem
For most people dealing with chronic back or neck pain, the issue isn't a muscle problem. It's pressure on the spinal discs and the nerves that run through them, often from a bulging or herniated disc pinching a nerve.
Massage, medication and even traditional adjustments tend to address what's on the surface. Spinal decompression takes a different approach: it gently and precisely relieves the pressure on the disc and the nerve directly.
What spinal decompression is used for
- Herniated & bulging discs
- Sciatica: leg pain, numbness or tingling
- Chronic back & neck pain
- Spinal stenosis
- Degenerative disc disease
How it works
Your first visit: clear answers, in one appointment
We evaluate before we recommend anything, and we only recommend decompression if it's the right fit.
Evaluation
A thorough consultation about your history and goals. Bring any X-rays or imaging you already have: the doctor will review them.
Scan and X-rays
A nervous system scan and digital X-rays, taken in our office, so we can see exactly what's happening in your spine.
Report of findings
Your results in plain language, including whether decompression is a good fit for you.
Your care plan
A specific plan built around your history and your goals.

If decompression isn't a good fit for you, there's no charge for your evaluation.

What decompression patients say about us

“I have had neck issues from old herniated discs for years. I came in with pain at an 11 and an inability to get out of bed. I’ve only been coming for a month and I’m feeling so much better — my range of motion and pain are amazingly improved.”
“It’s not the typical crack-your-back one-size-fits-all place. Here, it’s definitely one-on-one — they show you your scans and X-rays. It’s pinpoint therapy. The decompression chair is my favorite. My nervous system, for the first time in a long time, was out of fight or flight mode. This staff is legit, they know what they’re doing.”
“Compassionate, qualified and efficient doctor and staff. My condition has steadily improved. I am very grateful to have found a chiropractor who has worked patiently with me and has been able to greatly reduce my back/neck pain using advanced technology tools rather than extreme manipulation.”
