Joining the American Spinal Decompression Association (ASDA) will provide a number of benefits for healthcare providers who are interested in non-surgical spinaldecompression therapy.
Non-surgical spinal decompression (NSSD) is a form of therapy aimed at treating spinalconditions such as herniated discs, degenerative disc disease, and spinal stenosis. Thetherapy involves the use of a specialized traction table or device to stretch and decompress the spine, creating negative pressure within the affected area, therebyrelieving pressure on the spinal discs and nerves.
According to a systematic review published over NIH, NSSD has been shown to be a safeand effective treatment option for lumbar disc herniation, with an overall success rateranging from 68% to 92%. Furthermore, the study found that NSSD was associated witha significant improvement in pain relief, functional ability, and quality of life amongpatients with spinal conditions.
The benefits of NSSD include:
Non-invasive: NSSD is a non-surgical, non-invasive treatment option, making it asuitable option for patients who wish to avoid surgery.
Pain relief: NSSD has been shown to provide significant pain relief in patients with spinal Conditions.
Improved function: NSSD can improve the functional ability of patients by reducing pain and improving range of motion.
Cost-effective: NSSD is generally less expensive than surgical interventions.
People undergo NSSD therapy for various reasons, including : To relieve pain: NSSD is primarily used to treat pain associated with spinal conditions. To avoid surgery: NSSD can provide a non-surgical treatment option for patients whowish to avoid surgery.
To improve quality of life: NSSD can improve the functional ability and quality of life ofpatients with spinal conditions.
Alternatives to NSSD include: Physical therapy: Physical therapy involves exercises and stretches designed to improve strength, flexibility, and range of motion.
Medications: Medications such as nonsteroidal anti- inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) andmuscle relaxants can help manage pain associated with spinal conditions.
Surgery: Surgery may be necessary for patients with severe spinal conditions that do not respond to non-invasive treatments. However, surgery carries risks such as infection, bleeding, and nerve damage.
It is important for patients to consult with their healthcare provider to determine the most appropriate treatment option for their specific spinal condition.
