Flexion-distraction is a low-force, low-velocity and safe technique that aims to relieve pressure off spinal nerves or discs that may be compressed or injured. This technique is performed on a segmented table that slowly and repetitively decompresses the joints in your spine. These movements temporarily create more space for the intervertebral discs and nerves in the spine.
Flexion-distraction is a non-surgical alternative treatment that may help people with disc bulges/herniations, disc degeneration, muscle spasms, low back strains or sprains, sciatica, scoliosis, arthritis, etc.
