Is spinal decompression therapy painful in Colorado Springs?

Spinal decompression therapy is generally not painful and is designed to provide relief from back and neck pain rather than cause discomfort. During the treatment, you may feel a gentle stretching or pulling sensation as the spine is carefully decompressed. Some patients in Colorado Springs find the process relaxing and experience immediate relief from pressure on their discs and nerves. However, a small number of people might feel mild soreness or discomfort after a session as their body adjusts to the treatment. This is usually temporary and subsides quickly. It’s important to communicate with your provider throughout the process to ensure your comfort. Overall, spinal decompression therapy is a safe, non-invasive option that many people choose to avoid surgery and reduce chronic pain effectively.
