How Spinal Decompression Works Part I

An increase in disc pressure causes the disc to bulge, and causes a lot of pain. Spinal decompression creates a negative pressure within the spinal disc that produces a vacuum. This vacuum helps pull nutrients and fluids into the disc region. This in turn helps facilitate the healing process, and helps retract the disc into a more proper position. This improved position is very beneficial for disc health.

  1. Dr. Bob's Golf Spot,

    Very interesting article on decompression! Most people are not aware of what decompression is!

    I know that many golfers are injured playing the sport. Hopefully, this is a solution for them!
