Spine Traction for Lower Back Pain Management

Lower back pain, whether caused by degenerative disc disease or daily strain, can make even simple activities like sitting or walking painful. At Advanced Physio Plus, we offer spine traction therapy – also known as spinal decompression – as a non-invasive treatment for lower back pain. This therapy can restore your mobility and help you resume an active lifestyle.

Spinal traction is a physiotherapy treatment that relieves lower back pain by reducing pressure on the spinal discs and nerves. We use evidence-based therapy to address conditions such as degenerative disc disease, herniated discs and sciatica, resulting in effective pain reduction and improved function through a personalised approach.

How Spine Traction Reduces Lower Back Pain 

Spine traction involves gradually stretching the spine using a specialized traction table. This creates space between the vertebrae, which relieves pressure on compressed discs and nerves. This decompression reduces irritation and inflammation, alleviating pain caused by conditions such as degenerative disc disease, where discs lose moisture and elasticity over time. Traction promotes natural healing and alleviates symptoms such as stiffness and radiating pain by enhancing blood flow and the supply of nutrients to spinal tissues. Many patients report noticeable improvement and increased comfort throughout regular activities after a few sessions.

Benefits for Degenerative Disc Disease 

Degenerative disc disease is often accompanied by chronic lower back pain, stiffness, and restricted mobility due to deteriorating discs. Spine traction is useful for this condition because it repositions bulging discs, relieves nerve compression, and reduces inflammation. Patients with degenerative disc disease often report less pain and greater ease when bending or sitting after treatment. The therapy also helps prevent further disc degeneration by correcting spinal alignment and alleviating stress on affected areas. This non-invasive method is a safe, long-term alternative to surgery.

Treatment Procedures at Advanced Physio Plus 

The process begins with a thorough evaluation by our expert physiotherapists to determine if spine traction is appropriate for you. During a session, you will lie comfortably on a traction table while a device performs controlled stretching on your lower back. Sessions last 30 to 50 minutes, are painless, and many patients find them calming. We tailor each treatment plan, often combining spinal decompression with exercises or manual therapy to strengthen the supporting muscles and improve outcomes. For instance, we may use core-strengthening exercises to stabilize the spine and prevent future pain.

Spine Traction Expected Outcomes 

Patients who receive spine traction often experience significant improvements in lower back pain and mobility within a few weeks. This therapy reduces pain, increases range of motion, and improves overall function. These improvements allow patients to more easily return to work, exercise, and daily activities. Regular sessions paired with physiotherapy help maintain these improvements and reduce the chance of recurrence. Our comprehensive approach provides immediate relief and promotes long-term spinal health tailored to your needs.
