Many patients experience significant relief from disc herniations, sciatica, and degenerative disc disease. The therapy helps restore motion, improve circulation, and relieve nerve compression without surgery or medication.

Most decompression sessions last about 25 to 30 minutes. Treatment plans are typically scheduled several times per week for a few weeks, depending on the patient’s condition and recovery goals.
