Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression

What is Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression?

Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression in Orem, Utah

If you’re living with herniated discs, disc bulge, sciatica, or chronic back pain, even simple movements can become painful. At Crest Chiropractic, your chiropractor in Orem, we specialize in non-surgical spinal decompression therapy — a proven, natural way to relieve disc pressure and restore function without surgery.

How Spinal Decompression Works

During spinal decompression, a specialized therapy table gently stretches and relaxes the spine in a precise, controlled manner. This process creates negative pressure within the spinal discs, allowing bulging or herniated discs such as L4-L5 disc bulge, L5-S1 disc bulge,C4-C5 disc bulge, C5-C6 disc bulge, and C6-C7 disc bulge to retract and rehydrate.

As the discs re-expand and rehydrate, spinal nerves are relieved from compression, circulation improves, and the body’s natural healing process begins. Many patients experience significant pain relief and improved mobility after just a few sessions — all without invasive procedures or downtime.

Why Choose Crest Chiropractic for Decompression Therapy

At Crest Chiropractic in Orem, our goal is to help patients avoid surgery and recover through safe, effective, and research-based methods. Our decompression treatments are gentle, relaxing, and customized to your unique spinal condition — whether you’re dealing with lumbar or cervical disc issues such as:

• L4-L5 disc bulge (common cause of lower back and leg pain)
• L5-S1 disc bulge (can contribute to sciatica and nerve irritation)
• C4-C5 disc bulge, C5-C6 disc bulge, or C6-C7 disc bulge (often related to neck pain, shoulder tension, or tingling in the arms and hands)

The Science Behind Healing

Your spinal discs act like shock absorbers between the vertebrae. When they become injured or dehydrated, pressure builds on the surrounding nerves — resulting in pain, numbness, or restricted movement.
Spinal decompression works by slowly stretching the spine to reduce pressure on the discs and restore nutrient flow, similar to how taking pressure off a sprained joint allows it to heal.

This non-surgical therapy is one of the most effective natural ways to relieve disc pressure and encourage true healing in the spine and nervous system.
