What conditions cannot be treated with Spinal Decompression Therapy?
Not everyone is a candidate for this procedure. Certain conditions cannot be treated with Decompression Therapy. Pain associated with pregnancy, spinal tumors or infection, as well as patients with severe osteoporosis or unstable spinal fractures cannot be treated. This treatment also cannot be used for at least 6 months following certain types of spinal surgery and cannot be used if you have had hardware such as rods or screws surgically implanted in your spine. The doctor will conduct a thorough evaluation, as well as review your case history and MRI’s. He will determine if you qualify for Decompression Therapy.
