About this service
What spinal decompression involves
Spinal decompression uses a motorised table to apply gentle, controlled traction to the spine. It is used for certain disc-related back and leg pain, always after an assessment and alongside strengthening work.
Not every back problem is suitable. The physiotherapist screens you first and stops the treatment if it does not suit you.
Focus areas
- Screening before treatment
- Controlled, gentle traction
- Core and back strengthening
- Reviewed session by session
Please note: treatment is decided only after an individual assessment by the treating physiotherapist. Nothing on this page is a diagnosis or a promise of a particular outcome.
Awaiting confirmation: Draft copy for the clinic to confirm, including the typical session range. Adjust in Admin → Services.

Questions
Spinal Decompression — common questions
Do I need a doctor's referral for Spinal Decompression?
No referral is needed to request an assessment. If you have reports, prescriptions or scans, bring them along so the practitioner can understand your history.

That depends on the assessment and how you respond. The clinic will suggest a plan after your first visit. 8–15 sessions typical is a rough guide only, not a promise.
