Spring in Midland, Michigan is in full bloom, and it’s time to get out and enjoy it!

Spinal Decompression

During each treatment session, the patient lies on a heavily padded comfortable bed, secured into position by an upper and lower body harness. Typically, each session is divided into cycles where spinal decompression forces alternate between a maximum and minimum therapeutic level. The cycling of forces in this manner creates a pumping action that simulates the natural process responsible for re-nourishing and healing your damaged disc.
