Non Surgical Spinal Decompression Therapy

As a New York City spinal specialist, Dr. Nemirovsky uses non-invasive spinal decompression to treat debilitating back pain symptoms and improve his patients’ quality of life. Spinal decompression is a highly successful and safe alternative to back surgery for those suffering from degenerative disc disease, herniated discs, bulging discs, chronic lower back pain, sciatica, spinal stenosis, and even failed back surgery or relapse after back surgery.

Back Surgery vs. Spinal Decompression

Traditionally, back surgery was the only option for correcting more severe spinal pain conditions. For some, however, the extensive recovery process and additional pain brought on by back surgery can be worse than the original condition.

At Manhattan Sports Therapy, we encourage patients to try spinal decompression therapy as part of their pre-surgery treatment exploration. Even those who have not achieved optimal recovery results through traditional physical therapy or chiropractic care can experience significant pain reduction and mobility improvement with spinal decompression.

Cox Flexion Distraction is the safest and most thoroughly research method of spinal decompression. Despite its conservative nature, extensive research proves it to be highly effective in correcting many pain-inducing conditions and eliminating the need for surgery.

How Does Spinal Decompression Work?

Through a series of non-invasive procedures over a 4-8 week period, Dr. Nemirovsky uses the latest spinal decompression technology to gently increase the space between the vertebrae of the spine, reducing damaging pressure on discs and alleviating nerve pain. Combined with other therapeutic modalities, spinal decompression can drastically reduce pain symptoms in just a few visits and enable your permanent return to pain-free activity.
