Spinal decompression is an important treatment method to create more space in the spine to relieve pressure on the spinal cord or spinal nerves and reduce pain and symptoms from herniated discs, bulging discs, spinal stenosis, and many other causes. Chronic or persistent pressure on the spinal nerves can lead to chronic pain, numbness, muscle weakness, and in extreme cases, paralysis or loss of bowel or bladder control. Decompressing the spine will restore nerve function and improve spinal health.
At Ayushman Hospital and Health Services, we provide expert spinal decompression and therapy in Dwarka, Delhi, with a multidisciplinary approach involving orthopaedic surgeons, neurosurgeons, pain specialists, chiropractors, and physiotherapists. Patients benefit from personalised care plans, modern traction equipment, and minimally invasive techniques designed for faster recovery and long-term spinal wellness.
What is Spinal Decompression?
Spinal decompression includes procedures and treatments that aim to create space within the spinal column to relieve pressure on the nerves.
Two methods of spinal decompression are:
Surgical Decompression
Surgical decompression involves laminectomy, discectomy, foraminotomy, and bone grafting methods. These procedures remove or relieve the pressure placed on the tissues that are compressing the nerves. The purpose of the surgery is to allow the nervous system to regain its function, stabilise the spine, and avoid or prevent further injury. Surgery is generally considered a last resort after attempting non-surgical options or when facing permanent nerve injuries.
Non-Surgical Decompression Therapy
Non-surgical decompression is typically done in a clinic using either motorised or manual traction devices. The equipment gently stretches and decompresses the spine, leading to decreased pressure inside the discs due to negative pressure. Non-surgical decompression allows for blood to flow into the desired tissues and encourages tissues to heal using blood flow.
Who Needs Spinal Decompression?
- Individuals suffering from chronic neck or back pain unrelieved by medication or physiotherapy may need spinal decompression.
- Patients experiencing sciatica, shooting leg pain, or tingling sensations caused by herniated or bulging discs pressing on spinal nerves may benefit from spinal decompression.
- Spinal decompression is useful for people diagnosed with spinal stenosis, leading to narrowing of the spinal canal and mobility difficulties.
- People with degenerative disc disease showing progressive disc deterioration with chronic discomfort affecting daily activities may require decompression.
- Patients at risk of severe neurological complications like paralysis or loss of bowel/bladder control due to untreated spinal compression may require this treatment.
Benefits of Spinal Decompression Therapy
Spinal decompression therapy is a non-invasive procedure that uses a computerised traction table to gently stretch the spine, reducing pressure within the spinal discs and easing nerve-related pain. It provides benefits such as:
- Therapy naturally relieves back and neck pain stemming from compressed nerves and discs.
- Spinal decompression reduces numbness, tingling, and weakness in the arms or legs, making movement more comfortable.
- The therapy improves blood flow and oxygen delivery to injured spinal tissues, promoting more rapid healing.
- Therapy helps restore natural spine alignment and flexibility without surgery or extended recovery.
- Spinal decompression therapy reduces reliance on pain medications and increases comfort and activities of daily living.
- Spinal health improves, and long-term stability can be achieved through spinal decompression therapy.
