The Solution Is Here In Missoula MT

Are you looking for spinal decompression in Missoula MT? You don't have to live in debilitating pain. Treatment for acute or chronic back pain has often been medication and physical therapy. When these treatments fail, surgery often becomes the next course of treatment. Research has shown that an estimated 8 million unnecessary back surgeries are performed each year. The unfortunate thing for many surgery patients is that they would often have avoided surgery by using spinal decompression therapy in Missoula MT.

A highly effective alternative is spinal decompression. Many underlying causes of back pain respond well to this type of treatment. Spinal Decompression is a non-invasive and non-surgical treatment for neck/cervical pain and back/lumbar pain. Whether from a busy life, a past injury, or post-operative complications, we are pleased to share with you the non-surgical solution for the following conditions:

• Herniated Discs
• Ruptured Discs
• Bulging Discs
• Sciatica
• Stenosis
• Spondylolisthesis
• Failed Back Surgery

• Pinched Nerves of all kinds can be treated without the use of surgery. Whether you have pinched nerves causing neck/cervical pain and back/lumbar pain, or pinched nerves causing arm, hand, or foot pain, there is a treatment that does not require surgery. There are some exercises and remedies you can do to reduce the pain of a pinched nerve. But to avoid surgery you must take more action.

Ask yourself these questions:
• Are you missing work due to pain?
• Are you dependent on medications to handle your pain?
• Are you slowed or stopped in daily activities due to your pain?
• Are you contemplating surgery but scared of the outcome?
• Are you worried that your pain is getting worse?

How It Works

Since its release, clinical studies have revealed an amazing success rate in treating spinal disc-related problems with Spinal Decompression. This state-of-the-art technology uses mechanical traction to deliver gentle distractive forces over several cycles of stretch and relaxation which graduate to a gentle peak over a period of several minutes. This gentle mix of stretch and relaxation (many people enjoy a nice nap!) increases space between the vertebrae, improves disk health over time, and improves blood flow and nutrient exchange to the injured area.

How Long Does the Treatment Take?
It is most common to receive 18-24 sessions during a course of treatment. When a patient is receiving their first round of treatments, sessions will start at 2-3 visits the first weeks and gradually decrease to once a week. Spinal decompression visits last at least 30 minutes. Most patients feel some pain relief with as few as 6-10 treatments. Most patients are released from treatment after 8-12 weeks.

A complete program targeting the stabilization of ligaments, tendons, and muscles is a vital part of Spinal Decompression. Exercise and adjunctive therapies such as heat, muscle stimulation, ultrasound, and cold therapy can assist in the rehabilitation of these structures. Our goal is to not only help heal the disc but also enhance muscular control and support of the back and neck.

Regular home exercise and periodic visits to our office will help in maintaining your spinal health and reduce the probability of reoccurrence.
