Understanding Spinal Decompression
Spinal Decompression in Singapore: Relief for Chronic Back Pain
What Is Spinal Decompression?
Spinal decompression is a treatment designed to relieve pressure on the spinal discs, nerves, and surrounding structures. It can be performed non-surgically using specialized equipment or surgically in severe cases.
Symptoms That May Indicate a Need for Spinal Decompression
- Chronic back or neck pain
- Numbness or tingling in the arms or legs
- Sciatica or shooting pain along the sciatic nerve
- Reduced mobility or stiffness in the back
Common Causes of Spinal Compression
- Herniated or bulging discs
- Degenerative disc disease
- Spinal stenosis (narrowing of the spinal canal)
- Traumatic injuries
Standard Treatments and Their Limitations
- Medication: Painkillers and anti-inflammatory drugs offer temporary relief but don’t address the root cause.
- Physiotherapy: Strengthens muscles but may not alleviate pressure on the spine.
- Surgery: Often a last resort due to risks and recovery time.
- Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM): May provide pain relief but lacks imaging for precise diagnosis.
The Frustrations Patients Feel
Many feel stuck in a cycle of short-term fixes and ineffective therapies, leading to prolonged pain and frustration.
Why Imaging Matters
Imaging like X-rays, MRIs, or ultrasounds is crucial to:
- Identify the exact cause of compression.
