Service Overview

Spinal decompression therapy is a chiropractic treatment that uses controlled traction to reduce pressure through targeted spinal movement.

Spinal decompression therapy differs from an adjustment because it uses gradual traction instead of a brief manual thrust.
Arrowhead Clinic - Lithia Springs provides this care for people in Brookhaven as part of its chiropractic service area.

A situation this service fits

A person in Brookhaven with recurring back pain may ask about spinal decompression therapy after other self-care steps have not addressed daily movement limits. We review the health history and exam findings first, then discuss whether controlled traction fits or whether another care option is more appropriate.

Questions about spinal decompression therapy

Who is a good fit for spinal decompression therapy, and who needs a different service?

People with certain back, neck, or leg symptoms may fit spinal decompression therapy after an exam. The treatment plan depends on health history, symptoms, and spinal findings. Pregnancy, severe osteoporosis, fractures, or instability may call for another approach. We explain the decision before care begins.

What does the team look at first during spinal decompression therapy?

The first review covers your symptoms, health history, and factors that may limit traction. We ask about pregnancy, past fractures, bone health, and spinal stability. The exam then checks movement and symptom patterns. Those findings guide the discussion about spinal decompression therapy.

How does a chiropractic adjustment differ from spinal decompression therapy?

A chiropractic adjustment uses a brief manual movement, while spinal decompression therapy uses controlled traction. The two approaches differ in how force and movement reach the spine. Your symptoms and exam findings help guide the choice. We explain the recommended approach before treatment begins.

Which records should I bring to a first visit?

Medical records that describe prior injuries, imaging, diagnoses, or current treatment can help guide the first visit. A complete health history remains useful even when records are limited. Share medication details and pregnancy information when relevant. We use the information to plan a focused exam and discussion.

Why might a consultation be useful before treatment?

A consultation gives you time to discuss suitability, treatment methods, insurance questions, and what to expect. Free consultations also let you ask about spinal decompression therapy before choosing care. The discussion can identify health factors that may change the treatment plan. Clear answers help you make an informed appointment decision.
