What Is Decompression Therapy?
When you're experiencing back pain, there's not always a quick fix. Spinal decompression applies pressure on the spinal cord or spinal nerve branches, causing pain, numbness in the arms and legs, and other medical complications if left untreated. At Align Healing Center, nonsurgical decompression therapy is used to treat patients who are experiencing pain due to pressure on the spinal cord. Our patients have found relief from pain associated with:
- Neck or back pain
- Sciatica
- Herniated or bulging discs
- Numbness or tingling in the hands or feet
- Degenerative disc disease
- Failed spinal surgery
- Spinal stenosis
To learn more about spinal decompression therapy and how it could help with your pain, get in touch with our Danville, CA office and schedule an appointment with our chiropractic care team.
How Does Decompression Therapy Work?
Using state-of-the-art computer-aided technology, our specialized team applies gentle decompression to the spine, increasing blood circulation, relieving pain in the spinal discs and joints, reducing inflammation, and reinstating both function and movement. Made of pliable cartilage separating the vertebrae of the spine, spinal discs serve as natural shock absorbers. However, since blood flow to spinal discs is limited, injured discs may struggle from ongoing degeneration and insufficient healing. During decompression therapy, negative pressure targets spinal segments expanding the spaces between the vertebrae and allowing discs to better absorb nutrients and hydration to accelerate recovery. Gradually, this therapy helps revert herniated and protruding discs back to their original, optimal condition, allowing individuals to experience a life without pain.

Align Healing Center Reviews
I want to share my continued satisfaction and appreciation of Michelle, one of the nurses at AH. She is so kind and knowledgeable. She explains each product and procedure so that I can make the best decision for my skin type. Aging isn't fun, but Michelle puts me at ease and treats me with respect. She is truly a wonderful nurse.I would like to add that all my interactions with Elyse have been so positive as well. Dr. Niele has a knack for choosing excellent employees that really care about the patients. Align Healing is a wonderful place work on your insides and your outsides.:)
Ive seen Niele through my post pregnancy chiropractic needs and she was able to mend my lower back! The staff is always so great and accommodating! Having my first IV today and so far very easy and relaxing.
Dr. Niele and everyone at Align Healing are absolutely incredible. I have come with quite a few different issues from concussion support to bloodwork panel testing to overall energy - all have been addressed with such holistic expertise and care. I feel phenomenal now and cannot recommend Dr. Niele and Align Healing Center enough!
Always great service and the staff is amazing! Great selection of services and my go to for IVs!!
Michelle was friendly,informative and walked me through the process. Office was warm and inviting. I will be returning for future iv therapy. Thank you Align.
