Do you suffer from back pain, neck pain or sciatica? If you do, you'll be glad to hear that we offer safe and effective spinal decompression therapy in our office.
Non-surgical spinal decompression is a great way to restore your back to health. Studies have shown that spinal decompression can effectively treat back pain, sciatica, disk herniations, and other pain conditions.
How does spinal decompression help your spine heal?
Your spine is made up of bones called vertebrae, and these are separated by tough, fibrous, flexible disks. The disks allow your spine to flex, bend, and twist - and also act as shock absorbers between the vertebrae.
If your back is injured, strained, or if you have chronic pain, the individual segments of your spine can become immobile, tight, and restricted. This fixation of the spine creates tremendous pressure on the disks.
This pressure can cause the disks to bulge or herniate, or can cause inflammation in the nerves that travel from your spinal cord to the rest of your body. If the nerves become irritated or pinched, it can cause back pain, sciatica, or even numbness and tingling in your hip and leg.
Spinal decompression works by gently stretching your spine and reducing the pressure on your disks, restoring your spine's natural function and flexibility.
The treatment process is easy and relaxing. First, the doctor will determine the specific area of the spine to target, and configure the decompression machine. During a decompression treatment, you will lie comfortably on a padded table. A belt fits around your waist and your lower chest.
Then, the computer-controlled decompression system slowly and precisely stretches your spine, then releases. Over the course of a treatment, your spine will be carefully stretched and relaxed many times, “decompressing” the affected disks of the spine. This increases circulation, hydration, and nutrition to the disk.
Studies support the efficacy of non-surgical spinal decompression.
Medical studies have shown the effectiveness of spinal decompression. In 2010, researchers performed CT scans on patients before and after spinal decompression and found that not only did they have a dramatic improvement in symptoms, but there was also a significant improvement in disk height after treatment.
A 1998 study found that spinal decompression patients had a 90% reduction in disk herniations measured by MRI scans.
And, a 2008 Stanford University study found that non-surgical decompression resulted in an 83% reduction in back pain, with a high rate of patient satisfaction.

Walked in and welcomed with friendliness by Dr.Dokhanchifar. I felt very comfortable and at ease right away. I couldn't afford the fee when she told me how much it was but she made an exception because she said I was in a lot of pain and gave me an affordable rate. After treatment I felt relief with my back pain.The treatment consisted of applying heated and adjusted me at the end... It's worth it!! I love her already? I will bring my mom and will recommend her from now on. Thank you Doc!

Wonderful place with a great staff! I had been having back pain for a very long time that had just gotten worse overtime, so I finally decided to go do something about it. My father had recommended this place to me because he had been coming here since his car accident for preventive care and I see why! After one treatment my back has never felt better. If you’re ready to start feeling better then look no further. Thanks Dr.D!

I highly recommend Dr. Poopak Dockanchifar and Dr. Mehran Golchehereh at Family Chiropractic Clinic. Since my very first meeting with them, I was welcomed with open arms into their staff. As a patient, they took very good care of me after my car accident. I met with them, they did a full medical evaluation, treatments and partnered me with a great attorney that was able to help me win my case. They not only they educate their patients on the importance of holistic medicine through their chiropractic treatments, they also provide the information of the many health benefits it provides so patients so they can learn the natural way the body can heal itself and reduce the amount of medicine intake.
