Spinal Decompression Therapy in Blue Bell & Spring House

Gentle, Non-Surgical Relief for Disc and Nerve-Related Pain

Dr with patient “If you’re dealing with chronic neck or low back pain, disc herniations, or sciatica—and want to avoid drugs or surgery—non-surgical spinal decompression may be exactly what your body needs to heal.

At Community Chiropractic Center, we use the state-of-the-art DOC Decompression Table to provide targeted, computer-guided spinal decompression. This advanced system gently stretches the spine in a controlled, cyclical pattern, reducing pressure on discs and nerves while enhancing blood flow and nutrient exchange. The result? A healthier spine and long-term relief.

What Conditions Can It Help?

Herniated or bulging discs
Sciatica or radiating pain in the arms or legs
Spinal stenosis
Degenerative disc disease
Chronic neck or low back pain
Numbness, tingling, or weakness
Failed back surgery syndrome
Postural compression or facet joint issues

By creating a healing environment inside the disc, decompression goes beyond symptom relief—it helps address the root cause.

What to Expect During Treatment

Each session lasts 15-25 minutes. You’ll lie on a specialized table with a secure harness, and a gentle pulling force will alternate with a relaxation phase. Many patients find it relaxing; some even fall asleep during the process.

Treatment plans typically consist of 18-30 sessions spread over several weeks. Depending on your needs, we may also recommend chiropractic adjustments, movement rehab, or postural support.

This service is not covered by insurance, but we offer flexible, affordable payment options.

Is It Safe for Everyone?

Most people tolerate decompression well. However, it’s not recommended for patients who are:

Pregnant (can still treat the neck, not the lower back)
Diagnosed with severe osteoporosis (bone loss >45%)
Living with an abdominal aortic aneurysm
Recovering from spinal surgery with metal implants in the affected area
Managing an active spinal infection or metastatic cancer

We perform a full consultation, exam, and any needed X-rays to determine if this therapy is right for you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is spinal decompression painful?

Not at all. It’s a gentle, controlled process. Most patients report feeling a mild stretch or pressure, and many find it soothing.

Can I get decompression for both neck and back problems?

Yes—unless you’ve had spinal surgery with metal implants in one of those areas. For example, if you’ve had neck surgery, we can still treat the low back, and vice versa.

What makes the DOC Table different from traditional traction?

Unlike traditional traction, the DOC Table precisely targets specific spinal segments and adjusts in real time based on your feedback, making it safer and more comfortable.
