At The Adelaide Disc Center we focus on providing chiropractic care as well as leading edge spinal decompression; a non-surgical treatment designed to alleviate pressure on the spinal discs. If you're unfamiliar with this approach, you can learn more about what non-surgical spinal decompression involves and how it works. This approach is particularly effective for conditions such as herniated discs, degenerative disc disease, and sciatica. By gently stretching the spine, decompression therapy helps create space for discs to heal and relieves pain associated with nerve compression.
One of the standout features of our practice is the use of the Hills DT table in combination with a number of additional evidence based treatment protocols. Over the years, we've developed a comprehensive treatment protocol that combines the power of the Hills DT table with a range of evidence based complementary therapies, all designed to improve patient outcomes in these complex and difficult cases. Each visit includes a complex mix of treatment protocols, depending on the severity of the case and the stage of care. Most visits for non surgical spinal decompression take between 45 - 60 minutes. If you're considering this option, it's helpful to understand why many patients choose this approach for long-term relief.
We believe that this "matrix" approach gives our patients an edge in terms of faster pain relief and more effective recovery, when compared to using one modality. To better understand what to expect, you can also explore how the treatment process is structured and delivered in practice.
And here is the research evidence to back up our thoughts! I hope that you enjoy the read.
