If you survey your friends, there is a high chance that three-quarters of them have experienced a spine-related issue at least once. Spinal problems are almost always accompanied by pain that can range from mild discomfort to an unbearable sensation. There are several non-invasive treatments available, and two of the most successful ones are spinal adjustment and spinal decompression. 

Spinal adjustment is a therapeutic procedure where an experienced chiropractor uses hands or a special instrument to apply controlled pressure to the spinal joints. The goal is to return the spine into its natural position, thus improving its mobility and functionality. Once it is back into the proper place, the pressure is taken off the spinal nerves, and the pain is instantly relieved.

Spinal decompression is a traction procedure of gently stretching the spine using a motorized table. It is performed in a controlled environment with the patient placed in a secure lying position. The goal of the treatment is to extend the spine, restore the natural space volume between the vertebrae, and take the pressure off the nerves in the spinal canal.
