Non‒Surgical Spinal Decompression for Disc Herniation
Your discs in your spine and neck play a crucial role in how your body functions. The discs provide flexibility and movement to the body. When the discs slip out of alignment or bulge from their proper place, it can cause chronic pain, limited mobility, and even cause sciatica.
When you’re struggling with chronic pain caused by herniated discs, you need the help of a provider that can provide optimal healing and restore your discs to their correct position. Traditional care can only do so much to help you with your herniated discs. If you’re looking to avoid medication through proper, effective treatments, nonsurgical spinal decompression for disc herniation is your answer.
Healing Frontiers provides comprehensive chiropractic care in Wolfeboro, NH. Our multi‒modality approach gets to the heart of your pain and provides long‒term relief. We offer a specialized treatment protocol for realigning herniated and bulging discs. Schedule your appointment for nonsurgical spinal decompression therapy that can help you overcome your pain.
Our Nonsurgical Spinal Decompression
We offer nonsurgical spinal decompression therapy to help restore your herniated and bulging discs. At Healing Frontiers, we understand how chronic pain can make everyday tasks more difficult. We also know that no two people experience the same kind of pain. To help treat as many people as possible, we offer an array of services to ensure that no matter your condition, you can get back to living pain-free.
Dehydrated and degenerating discs can cause chronic low back pain and neck stiffness. Nonsurgical spinal decompression therapy can address these discs by using a gentle, safe pull to straighten and realign the spine. This draws fluids back to the damaged area, rehydrating the discs and relieving pressure in the spine.
When a disc bulges or herniates, it often presses directly on the delicate spinal nerve roots, causing sharp, shooting pain down the arm or leg, a condition known as radiculopathy. By gently opening the joint space through decompression, we take the pressure off the pinched nerve. This resolves the numbness, tingling, and weakness that disrupt your daily life.

Spinal decompression therapy is a specialized therapy for specific patients. To ensure we only administer it to the right people, we utilize a 5‒step evaluation to ensure the right tools are applied to the right health care.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is spinal decompression the same as an inversion table?
No. Inversion tables hang you upside down, which can cause muscle spasms and increase blood pressure. Our FDA-cleared decompression technology uses computer sensors to apply a precise, graduated pull that relaxes the muscles first, allowing for true separation of the spinal joints.
Is the treatment painful?
No. Spinal decompression is designed to be painless. The system ramps up the tension slowly and gently. If you feel any discomfort, the treatment can be stopped immediately, but most Wolfeboro patients describe a feeling of relief as the pressure is finally taken off their spine.
How long does a treatment session take?
A typical session lasts about 15 to 20 minutes. However, we often combine decompression with other supportive therapies, such as cold laser or adjustments, so you should plan to be in our office for roughly 30 to 40 minutes.
Can this help if I have already had back surgery?
In many cases, yes. We see patients suffering from "Failed Back Surgery Syndrome" who still have pain after an operation. As long as you do not have metal hardware (fusion) in the specific segment we are treating, decompression may still be a viable option.
How many sessions will I need?
Frequency depends on the severity of the herniation and how long you have had the condition. During your Report of Findings, we will provide a specific care plan outlining the exact number of visits recommended to achieve maximum disc restoration.
