Non-surgical decompression is a modern, motorized, non-surgical spinal decompression table that is high-performance for the human spine, used to treat issues like herniated discs, bulging discs, sciatica, degenerative disc disease, and facet syndrome.
Here is how:
1. Creates Negative Intradiscal Pressure (Decompression)
🎯The table very precisely pulls the spine apart in a controlled, logarithmic curve (not just linear traction).
🎯 This creates negative pressure inside the disc (often measured at –150 to –200 mmHg), which acts like a vacuum.
🎯The vacuum effect helps retracted or herniated disc material to be pulled back toward the center of the disc, reducing pressure on nerves and surrounding structures.
2. Reduces Pressure on Spinal Nerves
🎯 Spinal compression usually occurs when a bulging/herniated disc or bone spur presses on a nerve root or the spinal cord.
🎯 By gently opening the space between vertebrae (increasing disc height), the Triton GTS reduces this mechanical pressure, which often leads to rapid relief of radiating pain (sciatica, arm pain, etc.).
3. Improves Disc Hydration and Nutrient Exchange
🎯 Compressed discs have poor blood supply and rely on imbibition (fluid exchange through movement and pressure changes).
🎯The cyclic decompression-recompression pumps fluid, oxygen, and nutrients into the disc, which can slow or partially reverse degenerative changes and promote healing.
🎯 4. Relaxes Paraspinal Muscles and Breaks Pain-Spasm Cycle
🎯The gentle, rhythmic traction relaxes chronically tight muscles and ligaments.
🎯It also stretches the facet joints and reduces protective muscle guarding that often worsens compression.
5. Targeted Segment-Specific Decompression
🎯 Unlike older traction tables, the Triton GTS allows the clinician to set the exact angle of pull (e.g., 15° for L5-S1, 10° for L4-L5).
🎯This targets the specific disc level that is compressed, making it far more effective than generic linear traction.
