The Science Behind It
How Chiropractic Treats Spinal Decompression Therapy
Non-surgical spinal decompression uses computer-controlled traction to gently stretch the spine, creating negative pressure within the targeted disc. This vacuum effect draws herniated or bulging disc material back toward center, takes pressure off pinched nerves, and promotes the influx of oxygen, water, and healing nutrients into the disc. Unlike generic traction, decompression therapy precisely targets specific spinal levels and uses logarithmic pull patterns that prevent the body's protective muscle-guarding reflex from activating. The result is true disc decompression without surgery, anesthesia, or downtime.

The Sycamore Difference
Why Patients Choose Us
Thorough Diagnostics
We never guess. Every patient receives a comprehensive exam and X-rays when clinically needed before any treatment begins.
Personalized Care
No two patients are the same. Dr. Petersen builds a treatment plan around your specific condition, goals, and lifestyle.
Non-Surgical Approach
Drug-free, hands-on treatment that addresses the root cause of your pain — not just the symptoms.
At Sycamore Chiropractic, decompression sessions last approximately 15 to 20 minutes. You lie comfortably on a specialized table while the system applies calibrated distraction forces to the lumbar or cervical spine. Dr. Petersen sets parameters based on your MRI findings, body weight, and symptom response. Most protocols involve 15 to 24 sessions over six to eight weeks, often combined with chiropractic adjustments, cold laser therapy, and core-stabilization exercises. Patients frequently report a pleasant stretching sensation during treatment and noticeable symptom relief after just a few sessions.
Affordable Care

For patients without insurance coverage, we offer affordable self-pay rates and flexible payment plans.
