Anyone have experience with spinal decompression
I have tried just about everything with constant back pain from spinal stenosis. A spinal decompression machine is designed to
stretch and lengthen the spine, reversing the effects of natural aging and spine compression. Has anyone tried this and what are results?
I am doing this at a medical facility under direction of a doctor and a physical therapist on a commercial machine. Theory is this non-invasive, non-surgical pain relief therapy gently separates discs, creating negative pressure, which draws in water, oxygen, and nutrients.

I have chronic back pain. I have both kyphosis and scoliosis. Do you think this type of spinal decompression will work on my twisted spine?
I honestly don't know. I would ask your doctor his opinion. In theory it should help. But I would ask your doctors. Good luck to you!
My husband had a neck surgery, too far gone for other treatment. They x-rayed his whole spine and saw 3 compressed discs in the lower back and wanted to schedule surgery for them. He saw an ad in the paper for decompression machine called the DRX9000 in a chiropractor's office. He had treatments 4x a week for 1 month. It relieved him for 15 years. He's since had to have surgery. He wishes he had tried the DRX again before giving in. The back surgeries have made things worse, and no one can tell him if the NEXT one they want to do will solve anything.
Thank you
