How Spinal Decompression Works
A gentle, science-based approach to healing your spine naturally
Gentle Traction
The decompression process uses controlled, intermittent stretching on our HillDT decompression table to gently elongate your spine. This precise traction alternates between stretching and relaxation phases, creating optimal conditions for healing without forcing or straining your body. It’s comfortable, safe, and completely non-invasive.
Disc Healing
As your spine stretches, a vacuum effect forms inside the affected discs, creating negative pressure that draws in oxygen, nutrients, and healing fluids. This rehydrates damaged discs, improves circulation to the injured area, and allows herniated or bulging material to retract naturally – addressing the root cause of your pain.
Rapid Relief
Over the course of treatment, compressed spinal nerves are relieved of pressure, inflammation decreases, and your body’s natural healing response accelerates. Most patients experience significant pain reduction within weeks, with lasting results that restore mobility and function – all without surgery, medications, or downtime.

Spinal Decompression FAQs
“I just competed in our member-guest tournament and am excited to be able to play more golf with increased mobility and minimal to no pain.”
— Butch Carter, owner of Honest-1 Auto Care and the 2024 East Cobb Citizen of the Year
Yes. Chiropractic care and non-surgical spinal decompression work together. Chiropractic adjustments restore spinal alignment and nervous system function, while decompression directly relieves pressure on the disc. For patients in Marietta and East Cobb living with a herniated or bulging disc, sciatica, or degenerative disc disease, that combination addresses both the symptoms and the underlying cause.
Peer-reviewed research supports the approach. One study found that restoring disc height through non-surgical spinal decompression was associated with decreased discogenic low back pain (Apfel et al., 2010). Spinal manipulation combined with home exercise has been shown to improve outcomes in back-related leg pain (Leininger et al., 2014), and a systematic review found manual therapy improves pain and function in osteoarthritis (French et al., 2011).

No. Most patients describe it as a gentle stretching sensation through the lower back, and many fall asleep during treatment. There are no injections, no anesthesia and no incisions.
Most Marietta and East Cobb patients complete a course of 20–25 sessions over six to eight weeks. Your exact plan depends on how long the disc has been compressed and what your imaging shows, and we review progress with you throughout.
Yes — that is what it is designed for. By creating negative pressure inside the disc, decompression helps draw herniated material back toward the center and allows fluid and nutrients to re-enter, which is what makes healing possible.
Coverage varies by plan. Non-surgical spinal decompression is often not covered, so we keep pricing transparent and discuss the full cost with you at your consultation before you commit to a care plan.
Decompression is not appropriate for patients with spinal fusion hardware, severe osteoporosis, spinal tumors, or certain fractures. We screen for all of this before recommending treatment.
Traction pulls at a constant tension. Modern decompression uses computer-controlled cycles that alternate pull and release, which prevents the muscles from guarding against the stretch — that guarding is why simple traction often fails.
Usually, yes. Decompression relieves pressure on the disc; corrective chiropractic care addresses the alignment problem that put the disc under load in the first place. Used together they hold results far longer than either alone.
