Understanding Decompression Therapy
What is going on
Decompression therapy uses a controlled, gentle stretching motion to create negative pressure inside the disc space, which can pull bulging or herniated disc material back into place and take pressure off nearby nerves. Most patients we see have been compensating for weeks or months, adjusting how they sit, sleep, or move to work around the pain. Left uncorrected, that compensation tends to create new problems on top of the original one.
How we approach it
Dr. Rob Neuenschwander, DC starts every case with a hands-on exam to find where movement is restricted or where nerves are under pressure, then explains what he finds in plain language before recommending any care. Depending on what shows up in your evaluation, your plan may combine decompression therapy, herniated disc therapy, and targeted corrective exercise so the relief holds between visits, not just during them.
Who this helps
Patients with a herniated or bulging disc, chronic sciatica, or lower back pain that flares with sitting or standing tend to see the most benefit from decompression therapy paired with chiropractic adjustments.
Care at Neu Life Chiropractic is built around your evaluation, not a one-size-fits-all script.
