Spinal decompression in Enmore and Sydney’s Inner West.

Spinal decompression uses a specialised table to apply controlled, cyclical traction to the lower back. The position and settings are adjusted for the person’s presentation.

It is different from manual adjustment. If considered appropriate, it may be used as one component of a broader plan that can include education, movement advice and rehabilitation.

ChiroRelief’s spinal decompression service focuses on lower-back and radiating leg presentations. The clinic does not offer spinal decompression for the neck.

Your care begins with a conversation and assessment so the table settings and broader plan can be personalised to you.

Your chiropractor asks about your symptoms, health history, previous treatment, daily activities and goals. The examination may consider movement, relevant clinical findings and the behaviour of your symptoms.

You will receive an explanation of the available options and have an opportunity to ask questions before beginning care.

You remain clothed and are positioned on the table using supports appropriate to the area being addressed. The practitioner selects and monitors the traction settings and can adjust or stop the session if necessary.

Comfortable clothing is generally appropriate. Exact appointment and treatment durations will be published after the clinic confirms its final protocol.

People commonly enquire about spinal decompression for lower-back pain, sciatica-like symptoms, radiating leg discomfort and disc-related presentations.

An individual assessment gives you the opportunity to discuss your symptoms, goals and whether spinal decompression may be included in your care plan.
