Spinal Arthritis or Osteoarthritis Relief
The number one leading cause of disability in the United States is arthritis, followed by back or spine problems and heart disease. Spinal arthritis covers the top two disabilities, which, if not taken care of, can lead to the third one. Arthritis causes inflammation, pain, and progressive damage to the joint. Osteoarthritis, the most common type of arthritis, is the result of regular wear and tear of the spine.
Non-surgical spinal decompression therapy can be helpful to those who suffer from spinal arthritis. The computer-controlled table generates traction and relaxation cycles for patients, gently separating the discs, creating negative pressure. This “rehydration” of the degenerated disc brings nutrients, oxygen, and water to heal torn fibers and slow down the degenerative process. Pain is reduced or eliminated through the process, leaving the patient feeling better once again without going through any surgical procedures.
