Decompression therapy is a passive therapy that can be utilized to decrease your pain. It does not "cure" abnormal posture and alterations of spinal curves however it does relieve lower back and neck pain by improving disc health thus allowing you to begin a rehabilitative program to correct underlying spinal biomechanical dysfunctions. If you can't perform your daily activities due to pain, how can you expect to begin a rehab regimen. Decompression can often enhance the healing process and offer amazing pain relief.
