FAQ
SpineMED® is a non-surgical, drug-free treatment for back and neck pain in Dieppe. It helps relieve pressure on spinal discs and nerves and is effective for treating conditions like bulging discs, herniated discs, sciatica, and more. Each SpineMED® session lasts between 30-40 minutes.
Reduced pain: Decompression helps reabsorb the nucleus pulposus when it’s exerting pressure on nerves, relieving radiating pain in the leg or arm.
Precise targeting of the damaged disc: The SpineMED® table’s angulation ensures the treatment is aimed directly at the affected area.
Controlled distraction force: Gentle traction is applied, reducing intradiscal pressure and allowing essential nutrients and fluids to re-enter the disc by osmotic diffusion, promoting regeneration.
SpineMED® helps with a variety of lumbar and cervical spinal pathologies, such as:
- Post-surgical pain (without hardware)
- Herniated or bulging discs
- Degenerative disc disease
- Sciatica
- Spinal stenosis
- Chronic neck or lower back pain
- Facet syndrome
No, SpineMED® decompression therapy is a safe, non-invasive treatment. Most patients find it relaxing, and some even fall asleep during sessions. The procedure has been described as painless and comfortable.
For Low Back Pain:
- Positioning: You lie on your back with your knees bent on a cushion. Pelvic Restraints comfortably secure your pelvis; your upper torso is secured with velcro straps.
- Targeted Treatment: Your doctor sets the session parameters. The table’s Pelvic Tilt electronically adjusts your pelvis to target specific spinal segments. Gentle distraction is applied to the affected disc using controlled tension.
For Cervical (Neck) Pain:
- Positioning: Cervical Restraints gently hold your neck in place while the system applies precise, controlled distraction.
- Positioning: The cervical unit is adjusted to the correct angle for your neck. Your head rests in the Cervical Cradle Unit, securing the base of your skull. Controlled Distraction: Cervical Restraints gently hold your neck in place while the system applies precise, controlled distraction.
SpineMED® typically requires 12-25 sessions, 1-3 times per week, over 8-10 weeks. Your chiropractor will tailor the treatment plan to your specific condition.
Yes! SpineMED® is safe and has shown encouraging success rates. The system uses low-force, precise tension to gently relieve pressure on the affected discs, improving function and reducing pain over time.
Several studies support the safety and efficacy of SpineMED® decompression therapy:
- Qingdao, China Study (2013): A study involving 118 patients with lumbar disc herniation demonstrated a significant reduction in pain, with Visual Analog Scale (VAS) scores decreasing from 8.9 to 1.7 after treatment. The study reported a 93% rate of excellent or good outcomes and no complications, highlighting the safety and effectiveness of the treatment. (spinemed.com)
- Clinical and Imaging Outcomes Case Series (2025): A case series published in the Journal of Clinical Chiropractic Science reported significant improvements in pain (80% reduction), disability (50% improvement), and subjective recovery (75%) among patients undergoing non-surgical spinal decompression. Objective MRI measurements also showed increased disc height and canal dimensions, indicating positive structural changes. (journal.parker.edu)
- SpineMED® Decompression Studies: The official SpineMED® website lists several studies evaluating the system’s effectiveness. For instance, a German study and a retrospective analysis of SpineMED® patients reported positive outcomes in pain relief and functional improvement, supporting the system’s clinical efficacy. (spinemed.com)
These studies collectively support the assertion that SpineMED® decompression therapy is a safe and effective non-surgical treatment option for patients with lumbar and cervical disc pathologies.
SpineMED® system stands out because it:
- Provides repeatable, consistent results from session to session
- Uses precise, real-time tension adjustments
- Focuses on gentle, consistent decompression without painful harnesses
- Targets specific spinal segments for better results
- Requires lower force compared to older systems, enhancing comfort and safety
No recovery time is required. You can return to your normal activities immediately after each session. It’s a non-invasive procedure, and you’ll remain fully clothed during treatment.
Many patients begin to feel relief during the early sessions. However, the full benefits are cumulative, and improvements typically build over the course of the entire treatment plan.
Insurance coverage varies depending on your plan. Some policies may reimburse part of the cost, especially for chiropractic or rehabilitation treatments. We’ll help you check your benefits.
