Back pain and spinal issues are common health problems that impact millions of people globally. While surgery has been a conventional treatment for severe spinal conditions, non-surgical spinal decompression is gaining popularity as a safer and more effective alternative. At Relentless Chiropractic, we are proud to offer this cutting-edge solution using the advanced DOC decompression table, ensuring personalized treatment for each patient. Our specialized approach, led by Dr. Sean Ostrowski, has helped many avoid surgery and experience lasting relief.
What is Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression?
Non-surgical spinal decompression is a therapy designed to relieve pressure on spinal discs, often caused by conditions such as herniated discs, sciatica, degenerative disc disease, and spinal stenosis. The process involves gently stretching the spine using a motorized table to create negative pressure within the disc space. This negative pressure helps retract herniated or bulging discs, promoting nutrient flow and enhancing the body’s natural healing process. By reducing pressure on the nerves, patients experience pain relief, increased mobility, and improved spinal health.
Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression vs. Spinal Surgery
While spinal surgery is sometimes necessary for severe cases, studies show that non-surgical spinal decompression has higher success rates for many patients with disc injuries. A study published in the American Journal of Pain Management found that decompression therapy had a success rate of 71% to 89%, compared to 50% for spinal surgeries. Surgery often comes with a long recovery period, higher risks, and the potential for complications such as infections or scar tissue formation.
Non-surgical spinal decompression offers a much safer alternative, with fewer risks, faster recovery, and no need for invasive procedures. Additionally, it can be more cost-effective and prevent the need for future surgeries by treating the underlying cause of disc injuries.
The Science Behind Spinal Decompression Therapy
Spinal decompression therapy works by gently stretching the spine, which changes its position and reduces pressure on the spinal discs. This pressure reduction creates a negative pressure within the disc, allowing bulging or herniated discs to retract. As the discs return to their proper place, oxygen, water, and essential nutrients can flow back into the disc, promoting faster healing and regeneration.
At Relentless Chiropractic, our spinal decompression therapy using the DOC table allows for precise adjustments, ensuring that each treatment targets the specific area of concern. This science-backed method has been shown to significantly reduce pain and improve spinal function without the need for surgery.
Advanced Technology: The DOC Table at Relentless Chiropractic
At Relentless Chiropractic, we take spinal decompression to the next level with the DOC (Decompression of the Spine) table. Unlike typical traction devices, the DOC table is equipped with advanced technology that allows us to program and control treatment protocols with remarkable precision. This means we can target specific segments of the spine based on each patient’s unique condition, optimizing the therapy for disc herniation, bulging discs, and other spinal issues.
The DOC table’s design ensures that each patient receives personalized care, from the angle of decompression to the force applied. The result is a highly effective, tailored treatment that maximizes outcomes and reduces recovery time. Our patients can experience relief in fewer sessions compared to traditional traction or other decompression methods.
How the DOC Table Differs from Typical Traction Devices
While traditional traction devices have been used for years, the DOC table offers several advantages that set it apart. First, it allows for dynamic, customizable treatment protocols, which means we can adapt the therapy to the patient’s specific spinal condition. Whether it’s targeting the cervical (neck) or lumbar (lower back) region, the DOC table provides the flexibility to focus precisely on the affected disc segments.
Another key difference is the level of comfort and safety during treatment. The DOC table uses gentle, controlled stretching movements, reducing the risk of muscle spasms or discomfort that can occur with older traction devices. The ability to adjust the pressure based on the patient’s tolerance also enhances the overall experience, making the therapy more effective and better tolerated.
Personalized Treatment Protocols for Optimal Results
At Relentless Chiropractic, we understand that every patient’s spine and condition are unique, which is why our treatment protocols are customized for each individual. Using the DOC table, we can program specific settings that are best suited to the patient’s injury, level of pain, and spinal health. By adjusting the angle, duration, and pressure of the decompression therapy, we target the exact location of the disc injury.
Our personalized approach ensures that each patient receives the most effective treatment for their condition, whether they’re suffering from a herniated disc, degenerative disc disease, or another spinal issue. This precision allows us to optimize the results, reducing recovery time and improving long-term outcomes.

Conditions That Benefit Most from Spinal Decompression
Non-surgical spinal decompression is particularly effective for a range of spinal conditions, including herniated or bulging discs, sciatica, degenerative disc disease, and facet syndrome. Patients who experience chronic lower back pain or neck pain due to disc problems often find significant relief after just a few sessions. Decompression therapy is also ideal for patients who are looking for a non-invasive alternative to surgery.
In many cases, patients with compressed or damaged spinal discs suffer from pinched nerves, which can cause radiating pain down the legs (sciatica) or arms. Spinal decompression relieves pressure on these nerves, reducing pain and inflammation. Patients often experience an increase in mobility, allowing them to return to daily activities without pain.
Clinical Research and Success Rates
Research has consistently demonstrated the effectiveness of non-surgical spinal decompression for treating disc-related conditions. According to a study published in the Journal of Neurosurgery, patients undergoing decompression therapy reported a 71% improvement in pain levels. Another study in the Journal of Clinical Research showed that non-surgical spinal decompression had an 86% success rate in treating herniated discs, far surpassing the results of spinal surgery.
These studies highlight the advantage of choosing non-surgical spinal decompression, particularly when it comes to avoiding the risks and complications associated with surgery. With lower recovery times and higher success rates, patients often prefer decompression therapy as a first-line treatment.
Patient Testimonials and Success Stories
At Relentless Chiropractic, many patients have experienced life-changing results with our spinal decompression therapy.
