Spinal Decompression

Benefits of Spinal Decompression in Vancouver

It is estimated that 7 out of 10 people experience lower back pain at some point in their lives. In fact, back pain is one of the most common reasons for patients to visit a primary care physician. If you are suffering from debilitating pain in your back or neck, non-surgical spinal decompression therapy could help. MacKenzie SDI in Coquitlam has specialized in non surgical decompression therapy since 2005 and has performed over 70,000 treatments.

Spinal Decompression therapy helps relieve pain in the back by stretching the spine, taking weight off of your spinal disks. This non-invasive treatment option uses a table and slowly elongate the spine. By creating negative pressure in the disk, herniated disks may retract or reposition to reduce even more pressure on the spinal nerves. The goal of this therapy option is to relieve pain and promote optimal healing for herniated or bulging discs.

During your consultation, the doctors at MacKenzie SDI will determine if you are a candidate for spinal decompression therapy. While spinal decompression therapy can work nearly everyone who experiences back pain, it is generally not recommended for those who are pregnant and those who have conditions that can compromise the structural integrity of the spine, such as severe osteoarthritis.

If you’ve been involved in a motor vehicle accident, you may be eligible for financial assistance. No matter who is at fault, many victims qualify for compensation for medical treatment. MacKenzie SDI will work directly with your lawyer or the Insurance Corporation of British Columbia (ICBC) to arrange payment for treatment.
