At SG Pain Solutions, we understand how debilitating back or neck pain can be, particularly if due to spinal compression. That’s why we provide specialist spinal decompression treatment to ease pressure, calm pain, and get you moving again, surgery-free. With years of experience, advanced equipment, and a team of highly skilled chiropractors and wellness professionals, our Singapore clinic provides customized spinal decompression treatment to cure the source of your pain. From chronic pain, pinched nerves, to disc issues, our non-surgical treatments are tailored to provide lasting solutions and improved spinal health.

Understanding Spinal Decompression

Spinal decompression is a treatment that helps relieve pressure off the spinal discs and nerves. Pressure is more likely to build up due to conditions like herniated discs, spinal stenosis, or degenerative disc disease. At SG Pain Solutions, we employ state-of-the-art computer-controlled traction devices that stretch the spine gradually, creating negative pressure within the disc. This triggers the flow of nutrients and oxygen back into the damaged area, triggering natural healing and pain reduction.

Our spinal decompression is entirely non-surgical and tailored to your condition, whether lower back pain or chronic neck pain.

Causes of Spinal Compression

Spinal compression is caused by a variety of factors, most of which are age, trauma, or lifestyle-related. The most frequent causes are:

  • Bulging or herniated discs
  • Spinal injuries due to accidents or sports
  • Sedentary lifestyle or poor posture
  • Degeneration of spinal discs with age
  • Obesity or over-exertion physically.

At SG Pain Solutions, we thoroughly assess the root cause of the problem prior to us recommending an individualized spinal decompression treatment.

Symptoms of Spinal Compression

The signs of spinal compression may differ based on the location and severity of the problem. Some of the common signs include:

  • Chronic back or neck pain
  • Numbness or tingling in the arms or legs
  • Muscle weakness
  • Decreased mobility or flexibility
  • Worsening pain with use or sitting for long periods

If you’re suffering from any of these symptoms, our chiropractic staff can assess whether you qualify for spinal decompression therapy at our Singapore clinic.

Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression Techniques

Here at SG Pain Solutions, we have expertise in non-surgical spinal decompression as a safe and effective alternative to more invasive therapy. Our treatment process involves a motorised traction table, where controlled forces carefully stretch and relax the spine. Decompression followed by relaxation will reposition bulging discs and improve nutrient flow.

In addition to mechanical decompression, we supplement treatment with:

  • Chiropractic manipulations
  • Postural correction
  • Individual stretching and exercise routines

These methods are complementary to achieve the best recovery and minimize the risk of recurrence.

Our patients opt for non-surgical treatment for spinal decompression therapy for various important advantages:

  • Non-surgical and non-pharmacological pain management
  • Enhanced disc function and spinal alignment
  • Improved nerve function and circulation
  • Quicker recovery and return to normal functioning
  • Minimally invasive with no downtime

As part of our overall plan at SG Pain Solutions, we’re interested in healing the source—not merely the symptoms. That’s why so many of our clients have been able to find lasting benefits to both pain reduction and mobility.
