What is a subluxation?

The word "subluxation" comes from the Latin words meaning "to dislocate" (luxate) and "somewhat or slightly" (sub). A subluxation means a slight dislocation (misalignment) or biomechanical malfunctioning of the vertebrae (bones of the spine). These disturbances may irritate nerve roots and blood vessels which branch off from the spinal cord between each of the vertebrae. This irritation may cause pain and dysfunction in muscle, lymphatic and organ tissue as well as imbalance in the normal body processes.

It's a non-surgical, traction based treatment for herniated or bulging discs in the neck and lower back. Spinal Decompression is a therapy that provides relief of chronic severe pain by gently stretching the spinal structure. The stretching process creates a negative pressure or vacuum effect inside bulging or herniated discs allowing the center or nucleus of the disc to be reabsorbed into its proper postion.
