Can someone who has had spinal decompression tell me did it relieve the pain for lower back and neck ?

Curious about JMT,Accupuncture, spinal decompression and chiropractic adjustment ( what work for buldging discs,pinched nerves and degenerative disc disease causing neck pain, arm and hand numbness and lower back pain.

Answers:
I tried everything, including physical therapy, chiropractic therapy, steriod injections. I ended up having to have to separate surgeries for herniated discs in my neck. I had all of the symptoms that you list, and some that you don't, including spinal stenosis.

What you're describing sounds like cervical radiculapathy. Degenerative disc disease is a fancy way of saying you have arthritis in your spine.

There is no cure for arthritis. Your discs are deteriorating and they are pinching your nerves. While I'm told that physical therapy sometimes helps, it did not help me. I had excruciating pain in my arms and hands.

See your doctor. If you haven't had an MRI yet, its time to get one. This condition can permanently damage your nerves. See a neurosurgeon or an orthopaedic surgeon as soon as you can.

Good luck to you.
Yes it helps just like lying down or hanging upside down. The vertebrae are stacked on top of each other with a cushion in between each one. When verticle, the cushions get squeezed. After sleeping all night the cushions expand. See site for a specialized type of chiropractic that works better than the others.

Spinal decompression means removal of the laminae of the vertebral bodies to give more room for the spinal cord. This may or may not be accompanied by disc excision. Done properly, it gives dramatic relief from symptoms of disc herniation.
