Healing for the Spine, Back, & Neck with Decompression Therapy in Clarksville
Feel Better. Live Stronger. Do More.
A Safe, Natural Way to Take Pressure Off the Spine
The spine is a complex system that runs from the tailbone to the base of the skull. It’s made up of a series of vertebrae, each separated by a cushioning disc that provides flexibility and absorbs impact.
When these discs become compressed and can’t function as they should, spinal decompression offers a safe, natural way to restore proper movement and alignment.
Our team is specially trained in using the Back-on-Trac decompression table and has seen its effectiveness in helping patients regain comfort and mobility.
If spinal pain or injuries are limiting your life, decompression therapy could make a real difference. Contact us today to see if it’s the right fit for you!
What Decompression Therapy Treats
Decompression therapy is designed to relieve pressure on damaged or irritated intervertebral discs by gently stretching and repositioning the lumbar or cervical spine.
This non-surgical, drug-free treatment can help patients suffering from a range of conditions, including:
Spinal stenosis
Degenerative disc disease
Posterior facet syndrome
Non-specific mechanical low back or neck pain
And more
When spinal imbalances occur, they can lead to discomfort that affects how you move, work, and stay active, often disrupting your daily life. While back pain and neck pain are common outcomes of spinal injury, the body’s interconnected nature means issues may also present as headaches, shoulder pain, hip pain, or other related symptoms.
How Back-on-Trac Decompression Therapy Works
Our Clarksville chiropractic clinic uses the Back-on-Trac decompression table. This table uses gentle, controlled stretching to decompress the spine, joints, and muscles in the back, neck, hips, and thighs.
Unlike other decompression tables, it does not require harnesses or belts, as the patient is set in a reclined position, like sitting in a chair; we can then reposition the table as needed. Like older tables, targeted areas are stretched to relax the body through a series of movements.
We often use additional features, such as heat and vibration, to further relax muscles and enhance the table’s therapeutic effects.
How it functions:
Positions the patient: The user sits in an ergonomic chair that gently reclines them, promoting relaxation
Stretches the spine: The table performs a controlled, cyclical stretch of the spine, joints, and surrounding muscles in the back, neck, hips, and thighs
Relieves pressure: The stretching action creates negative pressure within the spinal discs, which helps relieve pressure on compressed nerves
Promotes healing: This negative pressure can encourage the retraction of herniated or bulging disc material and allow oxygen, water, and nutrients to flow into the discs, which promotes a healthier environment for healing
Uses additional therapies: The Back-on-Trac system often incorporates heat and vibration therapy to generate more powerful relaxation and improve the overall experience

Our Process
Before starting spinal decompression therapy, our team will perform a thorough physical examination to ensure it’s safe and appropriate for your condition. We’ll also discuss your medical history, lifestyle habits, and any past injuries to determine the best treatment approach.
Once you’re approved for treatment, we’ll enter your customized settings into the Back-on-Trac system, position you comfortably on the table, and begin the session. Each treatment typically lasts about 30 minutes.
Most patients report little to no discomfort during therapy, and many experience immediate relief. The Back-on-Trac decompression system is engineered for maximum comfort, safety, and effectiveness.

One of the most common causes of back and neck pain is intervertebral disc injury or degeneration. These discs can weaken or compress over time from repetitive motion, twisting, or strain, whether from athletics, occupation, or daily wear and tear.
As discs deteriorate, their gel-like centers lose hydration, reducing disc height and leading to issues such as facet joint syndrome and foraminal stenosis. When the outer disc layer becomes brittle or torn, the inner material can bulge or herniate, pressing on nearby nerves and causing sharp, radiating pain.
Because discs are constantly under pressure, even when you’re resting, they rarely heal on their own. Spinal decompression therapy helps by safely reducing intradiscal pressure, allowing the body to restore normal function and relieve pain.
Decreasing this pressure enhances nutrient and fluid exchange within the discs, promoting natural healing. It can also help retract herniated disc material back toward the center, relieving pressure on nerve roots and easing symptoms.
If you’re struggling with chronic back pain, herniated discs, or neck pain, our team can help you restore comfort and mobility. Get the non-surgical spinal decompression care your body deserves and start living life fully again.
