What Is Flexion-Distraction?

Flexion-distraction is a gentle and controlled treatment for spinal pain relief.

Using one of our tables, we perform spinal traction to stretch and decompress your spine to relieve pain. With this technology, we can treat your pain and discomfort while offering a gentle touch during mobilization.

How Does It Work?

Flexion-distraction uses a specialized table in conjunction with gentle adjustments by our doctors. The table shifts as we perform spinal movements to relieve pressure and return function to your body.

This treatment can lower spinal pressure, widen the spinal canal, and return motion to your spinal joints. The body can heal itself when using distraction with a specialized table.

What Can Flexion-Distraction Treat?

Flexion-distraction is useful for treating and lowering pain and discomfort caused by several conditions, from a herniated disc to lower back pain. Some common conditions we can help treat include:

Lumbar disc herniation
Lower back pain

Everyone at Smith Chiropractic Health Care was amazing! Dr.Smith’s adjustments are always a great relief to my back. He will be getting plenty recommendations from me. This business is the only one I can come in to get adjusted and get a nutritional class as well? A great perk if you ask me!
