Non-Surgical Decompression Therapy in Westminster, CA
Spinal Decompression is a highly effective, non-surgical therapy utilized by Dr. Mitzie Lam to treat severe back and neck conditions caused by disc injury. Conditions like herniated, bulging, or degenerative discs often place excruciating pressure on spinal nerves, leading to chronic pain and numbness.
In our Westminster office, we use motorized traction to gently stretch the spine. This controlled stretching creates a negative pressure within the disc space, achieving two critical goals:
- Retraction: Helps to pull bulging or herniated disc material back into place.
- Healing Promotion: Encourages the flow of oxygen, blood, and vital nutrients into the disc, which facilitates natural repair and reduces inflammation.
Spinal Decompression is often recommended for patients facing surgery, offering a proven path to relief without the risks, recovery time, or cost associated with invasive procedures. Dr. Lam will conduct a thorough evaluation to determine if this therapy is right for your condition.
