Spinal Disc Decompression…No Surgery Needed
Affordable Spinal Disc Decompression
Some doctors in Colorado are
charging upwards of $6000.
Here at
Sports Injuries and Spinal Decompression Clinic we are less than half the price due to the quantity of care we provide (still with the utmost quality) and the financing options we provide.
Don't have Health Insurance?

Free MRI reading and Consultation call Dr. Harrison at 303-349-5492.
Non-Surgical Spinal Disc Decompression
There are millions of people suffering from severe back and neck pain because of a herniated disc (disc bulge, slipped disc). Back, neck surgery and cortisone shots were a few of the only treatments readily available in the past. However, there is a new effective non-invasive therapy, spinal decompression, both safe and effective in virtually 9 out of 10 cases.
Is There an Alternative to Spinal Surgery?
An alternative to spinal surgery, disc distraction, significantly reduces the pain in most patients. A cost effective measure without surgery is now an option for those suffering from spine pain, radiating pain, sciatica, and spinal stenosis.
What is Spinal Decompression?
When the outer layers of the spinal disc becomes weak due to injury or excessive stress, the disc compresses (disc degeneration) and part of the disc begins to bulge out. As the disc(s) degenerate (lose height) the vertebrae of the spine get closer to each other (spinal stenosis) resulting in a pinched nerve. Muscle spasms, sciatica,
radiating nerve pain are a few of the symptoms that are a result of a slipped disc.
Spinal decompression is used to bring the disc back into its normal space between the affected vertebrae thus relieving your painful symptoms.
Does Decompression Work?
"Two pilot studies show that a new non-surgical spinal decompression treatment has a beneficial effect on lower back pain, and that it seems to benefit the morphology of the spine by increasing disc height. One study, authored by Dr. John Leslie of the Mayo Clinic and others, found that clinical use of a spinal decompression system led to an 88.9 percent reduction in pain scores over the course of six weeks, as well as improvement in Oswestry disability scores and a drop in consumption of pain medications."

How Does Decompression Work?
A dedicated table controlled by a computer utilizes a non-surgical therapy that isolates the patient's affected disc creating negative decompression.
Using this negative decompression the disc reacts as a vacuum, drawing fluids back into the disc, creating retraction of the disc back into its normal positioning in between the vertebrae.
When spinal decompression takes place, the disc pulls in water, and nutrients, thus rehydrating a degenerated disc, beginning the healing process.
The vacuum effect results in suctioning of the injured portion of the disc back into itself, allowing the outer part if the disc to heal.
What Conditions Can Spinal Decompression Treat?
Decompression can treat any condition that is related to the disc including:
- protruding discs,
- herniated disks,
- bulging discs,
- spinal stenosis,
- pinched nerves,
- radiating pain,
- sciatica, and
- degenerative disc disease.
Is There a Safe Alternative to Spinal Fusion, Disc Replacement (Low Back and Neck Surgery)?
Thankfully, the answer is yes, there are safe options out there. Spinal Decompression is now helping thousands of people with chronic low back pain and neck pain.
If spinal surgery has been given as an option for low back pain or neck pain,
call Dr. Harrison for a free consultation. 303-349-5492.
What are the Risks for Spinal Surgery?
"The most common risk of any of the modern spine fusion surgery techniques is the failure to relieve lower back pain symptoms following the surgery. In the best of all situations, this risk occurs in a minimum of 20% of spine fusion surgeries….. Another potential complication of spine fusion surgery in the low back includes any type of nerve damage." Sherman, John E. M.D., (September 8, 2006). "Spine Fusion Risks and Complications".
