Spinal Decompression is a computerized therapy that utilizes a motorized treatment table. It is a non-surgical, non-invasive solution designed to relieve pressure on the spine from issues such as disc bulges or disc herniations. This technology uses a series of precisely calculated forces and angles to gently extend and retract the table in smooth, cyclical motions, while the patient is comfortably positioned and cushioned in place.

During treatment, a specific portion of the table gently stretches in a targeted direction for a controlled amount of time. In other words, the table will gently stretch, relax, and repeat, creating a rhythmic and therapeutic motion. This process generates a vacuum-like effect within the spinal discs, helping draw bulging or extruded disc material back into place and relieving pressure on pinched or irritated nerves. It also reduces local inflammation and irritation in the surrounding disc region.

Research has shown that Spinal Decompression therapy encourages nutrient rich fluids to flow into the discs, creating an environment that supports long term healing and rehabilitation, particularly for herniated or degenerated discs. 

Ideal candidates for Spinal Decompression therapy are individuals experiencing:

• Neck, back, or spinal pain

• Sciatica

• Disc herniations or bulging discs

• Degenerative disc disease

• Pinched or irritated nerves

• Arm or leg pain, tingling, or numbness

• Muscle weakness

• MRI findings such as spinal stenosis or disc desiccation

Spinal decompression may be especially appropriate for patients who have tried other treatments and have experienced little to no long term relief. If you’ve exhausted other options and are still seeking answers, Spinal Decompression may offer a non-invasive path forward for you.

Healing isn’t always a linear or quick process, and results from spinal decompression can vary from patient to patient. Many individuals begin to feel relief within the first few visits, sometimes even after the very first session. For the majority of patients, noticeable improvements occur within just a few short weeks. That said, because many patients seeking Spinal Decompression are dealing with more advanced or chronic conditions, one or two sessions rarely provide overnight success (though we wish it always worked that fast!).

The most commonly reported benefits include:

• Improved sleep

• Decreased leg or nerve pain

• Better mobility and flexibility

• Increased tolerance for walking, sitting, or standing for longer periods

• Most importantly: meaningful pain relief

Spinal Decompression treatment is generally not painful. The majority of patients find the treatment relaxing, with some even fall asleep during their visits!

Depending on the severity of your spinal condition, you might experience mild discomfort during the first few visits. This is not uncommon, and we take every possible measure to ensure you’re as comfortable as possible throughout the process. We utilize clinical application of heat, ice, or other modalities before and after each treatment to minimize any discomfort patients may experience. 

We closely monitor responses to treatment and adjusts treatment settings when necessary to match individual or clinical needs, making comfort and safety a top priority.

At Roseville Spinal Decompression, we offer treatment options designed to be both effective and financially approachable. Our unique and flexible tiered pricing structure gives patients the freedom to choose what best fits their needs and budget— whether they’re looking for short-term relief or more comprehensive healing. Treatment option plans start as low as $549 for an initial block installment of six Spinal Decompression treatments. Our plans are built from nearly two decades of clinical experience with Spinal Decompression treatment, and structured with simplicity and flexibility in mind for patients. 

While we do not directly bill insurance, some patients may receive some reimbursement through their out of network benefits. We’re happy to provide all necessary documentation to support those claims. We also proudly offer special pricing considerations for military, law enforcement, and first responders. Additionally, we are a registered CareCredit provider for those who prefer to use healthcare financing. HMO insurance plans, Medi-Cal, and Medicare do not cover specialized elective treatments such as Spinal Decompression. 

Above all, we believe cost should never be a barrier to healing— and we’re always happy to discuss your options in a transparent, no-pressure environment. Call 916-866-1958 for clarification about out of network insurance and visit costs.

Most patients do not experience any negative side effects. The most common uncomfortable side effect is a dull, achy soreness sensation during the first or second week of treatment. This may occur as the body becomes accustomed to being stretched and decompressed from the motorized motioning of the table. This type of soreness is similar to the feeling of exercising after not having done so for a very long time. Very rarely do patients have an increase in the pain that they came in with. Patients with severe and acute disc herniations may experience some pain. Acute disc herniation patients tend to experience a more ebb and flow type relief from their pain, as an acute and severe disc herniation can be slightly unpredictable, simply put— that disc moves around! 

If a patient has had a previous spinal surgery procedure, it is still possible that Spinal Decompression may be a viable treatment option for them. In fact, many patients have found success with Spinal Decompression treatment even after a failed surgical procedure. If a patient has had more than one surgical procedure, it will decrease the potential success rate of Spinal Decompression. If a patient has had surgery that involved hardware such as rods or screws, they may not qualify for Spinal Decompression. Overall, medical history and imaging will determine a post-surgical patient’s eligibility for Spinal Decompression treatment. Call us at 916-866-1958 for instructions on how to send us your most recent post-surgical imaging report(s) and we will review them for treatment eligibility. 

We use the DOC spinal decompression table. Medical offices are faced with many options and choices when it comes to the selection of preferred medical and diagnostic treatment equipment and technologies. Based on experience with a variety of Spinal Decompression treatment equipment and tables, the DOC table outperformed all in terms of treatment results and patient comfort.
