Conditions We Treat with Spinal Decompression

Decompression therapy is highly successful for patients suffering from:

• Herniated or Bulging Discs
• Sciatica (Radiating leg pain)
• Degenerative Disc Disease
• Facet Syndrome
• Spinal Stenosis
• Post-Surgical Back Pain

How Spinal Decompression Works?

When spinal discs wear out or become compressed, they lose the vital fluids they need to stay healthy, often pinching nearby nerves. Spinal decompression uses a specialized, computer-controlled traction table to gently and comfortably stretch the spine. This precise stretching creates a “vacuum effect” (negative pressure) inside the disc.

This vacuum effect does two crucial things:

Promotes Natural Healing: It draws fresh blood, oxygen, water, and nutrient-rich fluids back into the dried-out disc, allowing it to rehydrate, grow taller, and heal naturally.

Retracts Bulging Discs: It pulls herniated or bulging disc material back into its proper place, instantly relieving pressure on pinched nerves.

Why Choose Hudson Sport & Spine?

Advanced Technology: The Triton DTS Difference

Not all decompression machines are the same. While many clinics use heavily advertised, “cookie-cutter” machines like the DRX9000, Hudson Sport & Spine proudly uses the Triton DTS system manufactured by Chattanooga, Inc. The Triton DTS allows our team to fully customize your setup and treatment to your complex, individual needs rather than forcing your spine into a one-size-fits-all program.

Expert Care Under Dr. Todd Givens, DC

Led by board-certified physician Dr. Todd Givens, DC, and our team, our clinic doesn’t just put you on a machine and walk away. We combine spinal decompression with targeted physical therapy, chiropractic adjustments, and active rehab. This comprehensive approach ensures that once your pain is gone, your core and back muscles are strong enough to keep it from coming back.

What to Expect From Your Treatment Plan?

At Hudson Sport & Spine, we perform a thorough examination to determine the severity of your condition before creating a customized treatment plan. A standard session takes about 1 hour and includes decompression therapy followed by spinal stabilization exercises.

While every patient heals differently, here is our typical timeline for success:

• Sessions 1 to 6: Most patients experience initial relief, which can range from complete pain cessation to a reduction of sharp pain into a dull ache or stiffness.
• Sessions 8 to 12: Full relief is usually attained for standard cases within this window.
• Sessions 15 to 20: For stubborn or severe pain syndromes, we may continue treatment to ensure long-term healing and stability.

Clinical studies of over 700 patients show that spinal decompression is more than 70% successful in treating herniated discs and sciatica—a success rate similar to invasive surgery!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “Dr. Todd offers you possibly the best chiropractic treatment you can ever have. I was diagnosed with bulging disc and the pain was unbearable and irritating. However, after undergoing chiropractic and physical therapy treatment under Dr. Todd’s supervision the pain reduced to almost negligible. Plus, its very convenient to work your hours with his friendly staff Suzie, Kunal and Chelsea. I would definitely recommend this clinic to someone who is having similar conditions like me.” – Ajinkya Rasam

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Does insurance cover spinal decompression in NJ?

Coverage depends on your specific insurance provider and plan. Our front desk team is happy to verify your benefits before your first visit. We also offer affordable, cost-effective self-pay alternatives that are significantly less expensive than surgery.

Am I a good candidate for this therapy?

If you suffer from back or neck pain caused by a damaged disc, you are likely a great candidate. However, decompression is not recommended for pregnant women, patients over 70, or those with severe osteoporosis, severe obesity, or spinal surgery involving metal plates and screws.

What should I wear to my decompression appointment?

You remain fully clothed during the entire procedure. We recommend wearing loose, comfortable clothing (like athletic wear) to allow for easy movement during the therapy and your stabilization exercises.

Is the treatment painful?

No! The treatment is gentle and highly comfortable. In fact, many of our patients find the stretching so relaxing that they fall asleep on the table during their session.

What are your hours for decompression therapy?

We offer flexible hours to accommodate busy professionals in Hoboken and the surrounding areas:

• Monday – Wednesday: 11:00 AM – 7:00 PM
• Thursday – Friday: 10:00 AM – 6:00 PM
