Flexion/Distraction Therapy is a gentle chiropractic technique used to relieve pressure on the spine, reduce nerve irritation, and promote healing for patients with disc injuries or sciatica. This safe, non-surgical method uses a specialized treatment table that moves in rhythmic, controlled motions to stretch and decompress the spine.
During a Flexion/Distraction session, your chiropractor uses a specially designed table that gently bends and flexes the spine. This motion helps increase the space between vertebrae, reduce disc pressure, and relieve irritation to surrounding nerves. The movement also promotes nutrient exchange within spinal discs, supporting long-term healing and flexibility.
