What Is a Decompression Table?
Decompression tables are customized tables that are used to treat a number of bodily ailments, particularly back pain. Sometimes referred to as inversion tables, the devices are ideal for positioning the patient in a way that relieves pressure on the spinal column. As the pressure is eased, the tensed muscles of the spine begin to relax, allow the process of decompression to take place. A decompression table is commonly used as part of chiropractic care, as well as with several other forms of alternative medicine.
