About Spinal Decompression Therapy back to top
If you are experiencing pain in the lower back and neck, sciatica, pinched nerves, bulging or degenerative disc diseases, Spinal Decompression Therapy may be your solution. It's the most advanced, non-invasive, non-surgical and pain-free alternative available today. Spinal Decompression Therapy gently stretches the spine, relieving pressure from the discs, joints and muscular tissues, while enhancing the body's natural healing process.
The gentle distractive forces of the Triton® Spinal Decompression Therapy creates decompression, the unloading due to distraction and proper positioning, to improve blood flow and important nutrient exchange to the injured area.
Your comfort and safety are of primary importance during Spinal Decompression Therapy. Therefore, unlike any other decompression device, you have several positioning options. Only if you're l00% comfortable will you be able to achieve the ultimate objective of complete rehabilitation of your discs and spine. During Spinal Decompression Therapy, you'll experience several cycles of stretch and relaxation, which gently graduates to a peak over a period of several minutes.
Therapy sessions typically last less than 20 minutes and most patients feel pain relief with as few as 6-10 treatments. It is important to remember, however, that pain subsiding does not infer that your discs and spine are healed, so it's critical that patients stick with the treatment protocol prescribed by Dr. Helwig in order to achieve the full value of Spinal Decompression Therapy.
Spinal Decompression Therapy is a pain-free alternative that has shown a very high rate of success at reducing or even eliminating back and neck pain. If you suffer from chronic, debilitating, low back or neck pain, you owe it to yourself to make an appointment to see if you're a candidate for Spinal Decompression Therapy.

Chiropractic Adjustment/Alignment of the Spine back to top
Gentle contacts and manipulations are performed in specific sequence to ease the bones of the spine back into proper position. This realigning of the spine relieves obstruction of the nerve system, returns the body to a natural state and alleviates pain.
Physical Therapy back to top
Many patients with joint injuries of the ankle, knee, shoulder and lower back require additional therapy to achieve full recovery. Rehabilitative exercise is used to stretch and strengthen the joint, lessen the risk of the re-injury and aide in the proper healing of the injured area.
Massage Therapy back to top
Muscles strained from injury or overuse may cause swelling, soreness and decreased circulation of the soft tissue. This can compress nerve endings resulting in painful spasms. Using soft tissue manipulation techniques, our therapists apply concentrated pressure on trigger points of pain and passive stretching of specific muscles. Once circulation is restored, you should experience increased strength and flexibility of the injured area. |
