Flexion distraction uses a specialized table to gently flex the lumbar spine while applying axial traction. The combined motion creates negative pressure inside the disc — drawing herniated material back toward center and relieving nerve irritation.
Closer in concept to decompression. Delivered hands-on by the doctor.
Best Fits
When the problem is inside the disc.
Flexion distraction is calibrated for cases where the underlying issue is disc-related — not purely mechanical joint restriction.
01
Lumbar disc herniation
Bulging or herniated discs pressing on nerve roots, especially when decompression-style treatment is the right call.
02
Lumbar stenosis
Narrowing of the spinal canal causing pain that worsens with standing or walking, improves with flexion.
03
Sciatic radiation
Leg pain driven by nerve root compression — the table opens the foramen to reduce the pressure.
04
Post-decompression maintenance
After a full decompression series, flexion distraction maintains the gains between visits.

Relieve the Pressure
Pull the load off the disc. Gently.
If flexion distraction isn’t right for your case, our decompression or adjustment options likely are.
