What Can I Expect During My First Visit to the office?

At your first visit, your doctor will conduct a physical exam and might recommend an X-Ray or MRI to pinpoint the specific areas of damage and discomfort. Your doctor will then determine your course of therapy and whether you are a candidate for Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression (NSSD).

At the beginning of each session, you will be comfortably fitted with a pelvic harness designed to achieve optimal decompression of the lumbar spine. As a session of NSSD commences, you will notice a slow, gentle lengthening in your spine as your discs are gradually decompressed and relieved of pressure.

The treatment process is safe and relaxing. While some patients with extensively injured discs reported mild discomfort during the first few treatment sessions, their discomfort subsides upon subsequent visits.

A patient safety switch, or quick-release clasps on the upper-body harness, provide an extra safety feature, allowing you to stop at any point should you feel discomfort. Each treatment session lasts approximately 30-45 minutes.
