Spinal Decompression

Spinal decompression involves stretching the spine while using a traction table. The goal is to relieve back pain and/or leg pain. Our chiropractor also works to promote an optimal healing environment for bulging, degenerated, or herniated discs.

Spinal decompression is a type of therapy applied to the spine that brings patients many benefits. First, we attempt to create a negative intradiscal pressure to promote retraction or re-positioning of the herniated or bulging disc material. Secondly, we create a lower pressure in the disc that will cause an influx of healing nutrients as well as other substances into the disc.

Staff are amazing. Dr. Wallace really helped me. Trigger point therapy was also a big help. Looking forward to many more visits to prevent issues in the future.

I would like to thank Lora Anderson L.M.T and the entire office staff at LI Chiropractic & Physical Therapy for getting me the appointments I needed and especially Lora for the treatment of my illio tibial band issue and addressing my rotator cuff, hamstring and quad pain. Her knowledge , massage treatment tand advice enabled me to play almost every game in my Senior Softball Season and complete our second consecutive League Championship. I can only imagine how beneficial she and this office staff would be to younger athletes with issues and Seniors dealing with pain and similar muscle skeletal issues.

When I first started my therapy at LI Chiropractic and PT I couldn’t use my left arm and the pain in my neck and back was debilitating! Now I have no pain, I have full range of motion in my neck and arm, and I have an overall feeling of well being. Dr. Smith and his professional staff were knowledgeable and compassionate throughout my treatment. Getting my therapy here was the best decision I made to regain my physical limitations.

Dr Wallace is spectacular! Takes his time to stretch and adjust all of your body! He's a magician !! Highly recommend him. Wonderful staff as well.

We will be sure to stretch and relax your spine intermittently in a controlled way. The entire theory behind this process is to create a negative intradiscal pressure which will pull the herniated or bulging disc material back into the correct space as well as to promote a passage of healing nutrients into the disc so it is able to heal.

Our entire staff is dedicated to our patients. We want you to be able to live pain-free (and quickly). We never just look at the problem while trying to mask the pain. Instead, we want to get to the bottom of your spinal issues so that you never feel this way again. Our office provides a calming atmosphere so you are sure to feel comfortable while your body is trying to heal.
