NJ Chiropractor Uses Spinal Decompression To Treat Herniated DiscsPublished: 2010-01-19 16:28:40Author: Dr. Peter Ferraro | January 16, 2010PR Log (Press Release) –
Jan 16, 2010 – Dr. Peter Ferraro is one of New Jersey’s leading
chiropractors offering spinal decompression therapy. The renowned NJ
Chiropractor has become nationally recognized for his extensive work
using non-surgical decompression technology.
For severe back pain and neck pain from a herniated or bulging disc,
Dr. Ferraro says spinal decompression is an effective treatment and
often times can help patients avoid surgery. Published literature has
shown a 92% success rate in treating disc injuries with decompression
therapies.
During the procedure in Dr. Ferraro’s NJ office, patients are
placed in a harness that keeps them in a stable position while a
computer-controlled series of stretches targets specific areas of the
spine. The duration of the therapy session is approximately 25 minutes, with patients receiving a series of 20-25
sessions over a period of 7-8 weeks. Dr. Ferraro offers decompression
therapy in conjunction with manual treatments and physical therapy for
maximum effectiveness.
According to Dr. Ferraro, spinal decompression accomplishes two
things. It increases the height between the vertebrae to create a
negative pressure within a disc, which will then draw back the disc
material. It also increases blood flow to the disc which allows the
outer layer or the annular bands to start laying down new cartilage
fibers, so that disc lesion can actually be without surgery.
“The beauty behind spinal decompression is that it allows the blood
to return back to the disc, which enables the healing process,” says
Dr. Ferraro. “Blood is very essential to this whole process;
increasing blood flow to the disc allows natural healing to occur.”
Dr. Ferraro was one of the first Chiropractors in NJ to offer the
treatment and travels nationally training Chiropractors on using spinal
decompression equipment. Dr. Ferraro says the treatment is so
effective, many members of the medical community, including doctors,
surgeons, cardiologists and dentists visit his office for decompression
treatment.
