Disc Decompression and Spinal Traction

Chattanooga Triton DTS Decompression

How Spinal Decompression Therapy works

Decompression therapy (DTS) is computerized spinal traction on a 3D table that works by applying a controlled pulling/traction force to the spine. This controlled pull is angulated to your spine increasing the ability to decompress “pinched” nerves, “reduce” slipped discs as well as “stabilise” the spine. DTS improves disc nutrition and promotes disc structure.

DTS is not done as a stand-alone treatment at SPR Wellness but is combined with Chiropractic techniques and exercise programmes.

Sometimes another more advanced structural therapy may be indicated but this will be discussed after the initial consultation.
