If you’re struggling with a chronic disc injury, such as a herniated disc or bulging disc, sciatica, or other spine pain, you know how much it can impact your daily life. The pain, numbness, and limited mobility that a disc injury may cause can make even the simplest tasks feel overwhelming. At our chiropractic office in Frisco, we offer non-surgical spinal decompression therapy — a proven, drug-free approach to help relieve pain from a disc injury and restore function.
What Is a Disc Injury?
A disc injury occurs when one of the spinal discs — the soft, gel-like cushions between the bones in your spine — becomes damaged. Common types of disc injuries include:
-
Herniated disc (disc material pushes out)
-
Bulging disc (disc protrudes without rupture)
-
Degenerative disc disease (discs wear down with age)
These injuries often compress nearby nerves, leading to pain, numbness, tingling, or weakness in the back, legs, or arms.
A disc injury can cause debilitating pain and disrupt every aspect of your life — from work and sleep to simply bending over to tie your shoes. Whether you’re dealing with a herniated disc, bulging disc, or degenerative disc condition, spinal decompression therapy offers a non-invasive solution that targets the root of the problem — the injured disc itself.
How Spinal Decompression Therapy Works for Disc Injuries
Spinal decompression therapy is a gentle, computer-controlled treatment that slowly stretches the spine. This relieves pressure on the injured disc and creates negative pressure within the disc, which:
✅ Gently reduces the pressure on the herniated or bulging disc✅ Increases circulation to promote disc healing✅ Relieves nerve irritation that causes pain and inflammation
This process helps the disc injury heal over time by improving hydration and nutrient flow to the damaged tissue.
Disc Injury Symptoms We Treat
Spinal decompression may be the solution if you’re experiencing any of the following symptoms related to a disc injury:
-
Chronic lower back or neck pain
-
Sciatica or radiating leg pain
-
Tingling or numbness in extremities
-
Muscle weakness
-
Limited spinal mobility
Why Choose Spinal Decompression for Your Disc Injury?
Unlike medications that only mask symptoms or surgery that involves risk and downtime, spinal decompression works with your body’s natural healing process. Patients with disc injuries often report:
✨ Significant pain relief after just a few sessions✨ Improved posture and flexibility✨ Fewer flare-ups and less nerve irritation
-
According to a 2025 peer-reviewed case series, non‑surgical spinal decompression produced significant pain relief and measurable disc height restoration in patients with lumbar disc lesions. Their MRI results support exactly how decompression supports healing from disc injury naturally.
What to Expect During Treatment
Your spinal decompression session takes place on a comfortable motorized table. You’ll be gently secured while the table cycles through specific stretching and relaxation phases. Most patients feel relief during the session itself and continue to improve over several weeks.
The research indicates that 12–24 sessions over 4–6 weeks are optimal for disc injury healing, often in conjunction with chiropractic adjustments and other treatment protocols.
Who Is a Good Candidate for Spinal Decompression Therapy?
Spinal decompression is ideal for individuals suffering from chronic disc injuries who want to avoid pain medication, injections, or invasive procedures. It’s especially beneficial for people with jobs or lifestyles that place repeated stress on the spine — such as desk work, manual labor, or athletic activity. However, it’s not suitable for everyone, including those with spinal fusion hardware, fractures, or severe osteoporosis.
That’s why we begin every case with a thorough evaluation to determine if spinal decompression is the safest and most effective option for your specific disc injury and health history.
