Spinal Decompression Physiotherapy

Service Description

Non-surgical spinal decompression such as Intervertebral Differential Dynamics (IDD) is safer & cost- effective treatment approach compared to surgical procedures for patients presenting with spinal-related conditions. In simple words, IDD can be described as decompression of intervertebral segments, aiming at varying spinal levels with dynamic distraction & longitudinal mobilization. It is a precise & powered advanced form of spinal decompression treatment used to open the disc space between targeted vertebrae to alleviate pain caused by disc compression & degeneration. Spinal decompression therapy involves spinal stretching on an IDD therapy device aimed at relieving persistent neck or back pain. Therapeutic effects: • Comfortably re-educate (stretch & work) supporting soft tissues to increase joint range of motion. • Decompress & mobilize the facet joints. • Open the disc space to create pressure differentials for fluid exchange (promoting diffusion of oxygen, water, & nutrients into the vertebral disc area for rehydration of degenerated disc, stimulation of metabolism & promotion of disc healing • Create negative pressure to promote retraction of disc bulge & remove pressure on nerves. • Re-align spinal structures & rehabilitate damaged discs. • Release endorphins for pain relief & stress reduction, thereby making the therapy session so comfortable & sedative. • Reduce muscle spasm. Conditions can be benefited: • Herniated or bulging discs • Degenerative disc disease • Sciatica • Facet syndrome • Cervical radiculopathy • Chronic low back & neck pain
