Flexion Distraction Therapy
A Gentle, Effective Treatment for Spinal Pain
At our clinic, we offer flexion-distraction therapy using a specialized chiropractic table designed to gently stretch and mobilize the spine. This technique is especially effective for treating a variety of lower back and neck conditions, particularly those involving disc or nerve issues.
What Is Flexion-Distraction?
Flexion-distraction is a safe, non-invasive chiropractic technique that uses a specially designed table to create a gentle stretching (distraction) and bending (flexion) motion in the spine.
While you lie on the table, the lower portion moves slowly in a rhythmic motion, helping to relieve pressure on spinal discs and nerves. Your chiropractor may apply manual techniques to specific areas of your spine to guide and enhance the movement.
This approach is ideal for patients seeking relief without the forceful adjustments often associated with traditional chiropractic care.
Conditions Treated with Flexion-Distraction
Flexion-distraction therapy is commonly used to treat:
Herniated or bulging discs
Sciatica and nerve compression
Spinal stenosis
Degenerative disc disease
Joint pain in the Lower back
It is also well-suited for patients who need a gentler approach, such as seniors or those with acute or severe pain.
Benefits of Flexion-Distraction
- Reduces pressure on spinal discs and nerves
- Improves spinal flexibility and range of motion
- Decreases inflammation and muscle tension
- Promotes circulation and disc healing
- Comfortable and pain-free for most patients
