Orthocure Clinic offers Non-surgical Spinal decompression therapy from Canadian Decompression and Pain Center, Canada.Spinal Decompression therapy is primarily used to treat disc injuries of lower back. Due to accident or lifestyle related factors like being in a desk job or poor posture, the disc between spinal vertebrae may get compressed. This could lead to various disc related problems like slip disc, disc herniation or sciatica. Spinal Decompression treats the disc injuries across its various stages.
How does Spinal Decompression therapy work?
- It “decompresses” the spinal structure.
- There are a series of cycles of decompression and partial relaxation which promotes the diffusion of water and nutrients into the disc.
- Spinal decompression is a targeted treatment for the specific area of the spine where there is a disc injury.
Spinal Decompression treatment protocol
- Consultation: An assessment by team of spine specialists is done to ascertain the need for spinal decompression treatment for your spine.
- Each session of spinal decompression lasts for about 30-45 minutes. During the decompression time, the patient stays in a relaxed, lying down state.
- It may take 12-20 sessions of decompression treatment to treat the specific disc injury depending upon your condition.

Testimonial:
I came to Orthocure after undergoing physiotherapy (for my lower back issues) at another center for nearly 2 months. Having patiently undergone treatment at another 'popular' center without satisfactory results, I was quite skeptical about what to expect from Orthocure, as it was an unknown Centre. I had no recommendation from any known sources. I had come across Orthocure while googling the net. What followed was the 3 month treatment program of MedX which yielded excellent results. Initially Dr. Meenal and then Dr. Meeta guided me through the program. I was explained in detail what was causing the problem and how it would be treated and rectified. The program started yielding visible results after the first few sittings. While it was not smooth sailing always, as my problem was complicated, Dr. Meeta dealt with all the surprises and customized my treatment accordingly. Now at the end of 3 month program, I am completely satisfied with the results and would without any hesitation 'Fully' recommend the services of Orthocure & Dr. Meeta to anyone facing similar, lower back issues.

Visited for Low back pain with difficulty walking or even standing for 5 mins and was even bent on one side. Had tried a lot of other treatments like basic physiotherapy, acupuncture and magnetic therapy but my condition only kept getting worse.
I had to undergo spine surgery. A few weeks after the surgery I had a relapse of all my symptoms along with the list. I was advised Re-surgery by 2 prominent Orthopedic surgeons. But Dr. Deepti Rani, who specializes in spine, took up the challenge and corrected my list with McKenzie protocol. Then she put me on a unique treatment of Spinal Decompression therapy form Canada. My symptoms gradually reduced and was able to walk taller, straighter and pain free. I was then put on a specialized back strengthening protocol from USA, Florida- the MedX machine. With the help of MedX, I now feel stronger and more confident about my back. One of the biggest assessment of my recovery is that now I walk to the clinic for my regular checkups which is 6 Kms away from my home. I would without a doubt recommend Orthocure clinic to any one in pain and a must visit before going in for a surgery.

I have spondylitis problem. Along with this got weak neck & upper back muscles with chronic pain in that area. With the dry needling my pains were relieved. With the help of Dr. Ruchita Agarwal I learned stretching exercises for neck and upper back region with and without theraband. Also undergone three months Med X sessions as per her advice to strengthen the neck muscles. The readings of muscle strength and muscle balance were gradually improved over those three months. Currently I am on maintenance mode on Med X to maintain the neck muscle strength and balance. Combination of muscle strengthening equipment, dry needling, stretching exercises and cold/hot pack therapy reduced the medication intake of muscle relaxants and pain killers.
