Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression for Disc Pain & Sciatica in Oklahoma City
If you have been told you have a herniated disc, bulging disc, or sciatica, and you are dreading the idea of surgery, you need to know about spinal decompression therapy.
At Precision Care Chiropractic, we use the Back on Trac spinal decompression system to gently reduce disc pressure, relieve nerve compression, and give your spine the conditions it needs to heal. Without drugs. Without surgery. Without missing your life.
Does this sound familiar?
- Pain, numbness, or tingling shooting down your leg or into your foot
- Lower back pain that's worse when you sit, drive, or get up in the morning
- You have tried physical therapy, massage, or injections, and the relief didn't last
- A doctor mentioned surgery and you want to find a non-invasive option first
- You feel like you're managing the pain instead of actually healing
You may be an ideal candidate for spinal decompression therapy.
What Is Spinal Decompression - And How Does It Work?
When a disc herniates or bulges, it can press on the nerves running through your spine, causing pain, weakness, and that familiar burning or shooting sensation down your leg (sciatica).
Spinal decompression works by gently and precisely stretching the spine to create negative pressure inside the disc. This pulls the disc material away from the nerve and draws in oxygen, nutrients, and fluid that accelerate the healing process from the inside out.
Think of it like releasing the pressure valve on a system that's been overloaded.
The Back on Trac System - What Makes It Different
Back on Trac is a modern, motorized spinal decompression unit designed specifically for lumbar (lower back) disc conditions. Unlike lying on a flat traction table, Back on Trac positions your body in a comfortable, partially reclined seat and delivers rhythmic, controlled decompression cycles personalized to your body and condition.
What to expect during your session:
- You will be seated comfortably on the Back on Trac unit
- The lower portion moves gently through controlled stretching cycles while your upper body remains supported
- Most patients describe the experience as relieving - a release of built-up pressure
- Sessions last approximately 8–12 minutes and are fully guided by our team
- No pain. No downtime. You can return to your day immediately after
Who Is a Good Candidate for Spinal Decompression?
Spinal decompression is clinically indicated for patients dealing with:
- Herniated or bulging discs
- Degenerative disc disease
- Sciatica (radiating leg pain)
- Facet syndrome
- Spinal stenosis (mild to moderate)
- Nerve root compression
- Post-surgical disc pain (non-fusion)
- Chronic lower back pain
Not sure if you are a candidate?
We conduct a thorough evaluation before recommending decompression therapy, including a review of your imaging, history, and current symptoms. We never recommend a treatment we don't believe is right for you.
How Spinal Decompression Fits Into Your Precision Healing Method™
Spinal decompression is not a standalone treatment at Precision Care, it's one powerful component of your corrective care plan. Here's where it typically fits within your healing arc:
Phase 1 - Relief
Decompression begins here, reducing acute disc pressure, calming nerve irritation, and giving you meaningful relief so the rest of your care can take hold.
Phase 2 - Correction
Combined with precise chiropractic adjustments, decompression helps restore healthy spinal alignment and disc spacing, addressing the structural cause, not just the symptom.
Phase 3 - Stabilization
We continue to support your healing progress and build the spinal stability that keeps the pain from coming back, so you can maintain your results long term.
What Patients Say After Decompression
“After two months of sciatica, I couldn’t sit through a meeting or drive more than 10 minutes without pain. I was seriously considering the epidural my doctor recommended. After my first few weeks of decompression therapy at Precision Care, the shooting pain down my leg was gone. By the end of my care plan I was back to working out and sleeping through the night. I wish I had found Dr. Bampoe first.”
-Ike V., Oklahoma City

Common Questions About Spinal Decompression
Does it hurt?
No. Most patients find the sessions comfortable and even relaxing. You may feel a gentle pulling sensation as the spine decompresses , many describe this as an immediate sense of relief.
How many sessions will I need?
This depends on your diagnosis, how long you have had the condition, and your body’s response to care. We’ll give you a personalized care plan after your evaluation, with a clear timeline and what to expect at each phase.
Is spinal decompression safe?
Yes. Spinal decompression is a non-invasive, FDA-cleared therapy with a strong clinical safety record. We perform a thorough evaluation to confirm you’re a good candidate before beginning treatment. Decompression is not recommended for patients who are pregnant, have spinal fractures, advanced osteoporosis, or spinal hardware from fusion surgery.
Can I combine decompression with chiropractic adjustments?
Absolutely, and we recommend it. Decompression and chiropractic care work synergistically. Decompression creates space and reduces pressure; adjustments restore proper spinal alignment. Together, they address both the structural and neurological causes of your pain.
Does insurance cover it?
Coverage varies by plan. We’re in-network with most major insurance providers and offer transparent self-pay options. We’ll help you understand your benefits before you commit to any care plan.

CERVI-TRAC CERVICAL DECOMPRESSION
Cervi-Trac Cervical Decompression - Targeted Relief for Neck Pain & Disc Issues
Chronic neck pain isn’t just uncomfortable. When a disc in your cervical spine is compressed or herniated, it can affect your focus, your sleep, your ability to drive, and your quality of life in ways that go far beyond just “a stiff neck.”
At Precision Care Chiropractic, we offer Cervi-Trac, a gentle, clinically focused cervical decompression therapy designed specifically for the neck. It’s quiet, comfortable, and it works.
Is your neck pain doing this to you?
- Pain or stiffness radiating from your neck into your shoulders or arms
- Headaches that start at the base of your skull
- Numbness or tingling down into your hands or fingers
- Difficulty turning your head fully, especially when driving
- Neck pain that worsens after screen time, travel, or poor sleep
Cervi-Trac cervical decompression may be exactly what your spine needs.
What Is Cervi-Trac Cervical Decompression?
The Cervi-Trac system is a specialized, motorized cervical traction and decompression unit. Unlike a simple neck pillow or generic traction device, Cervi-Trac delivers controlled, rhythmic decompression cycles that are customized to your body and condition.
It gently supports your head and neck while creating precise negative pressure in the cervical discs, drawing the disc material away from compressed nerves, increasing disc hydration, and restoring healthy space between the vertebrae.
What to expect during your session:
- You will recline comfortably while the Cervi-Trac unit supports your head and neck
- Gentle rhythmic traction cycles are applied at a pressure personalized to your needs
- Most patients describe the sensation as deeply relaxing - like the tension finally releasing
- Sessions last approximately 8–12 minutes
- Completely non-invasive. No needles. No medication. No downtime.
Conditions We Help With Cervi-Trac
- Cervical disc herniation
- Cervical radiculopathy
- Neck pain from degeneration
- Tension headaches / cervicogenic headaches
- Pinched nerves in the neck
- Tech neck / postural strain
- Arm numbness or tingling
- Post-whiplash neck stiffness
How Cervi-Trac Fits Into Your Precision Healing Method™
Cervi-Trac is most powerful when integrated into your corrective care plan — not used in isolation. Here’s how it works within your healing arc:
- Relief Phase: Immediately reduces cervical disc pressure and nerve irritation, giving you functional relief so your adjustments can do their job
- Correction Phase: Combined with precise cervical adjustments, Cervi-Trac supports structural realignment and disc restoration at the root level
- Stabilization Phase: Helps consolidate your progress and build cervical resilience so the pain doesn’t return when life gets busy
What Patients Say
“I had been dealing with neck pain and headaches for three years. I had no idea my disc was the source. After a few weeks of Cervi-Trac and adjustments at Precision Care, the headaches reduced dramatically and I could actually turn my head without pain. I felt like a different person.”
Common Questions About Cervi-Trac
Is it safe for my neck?
Yes. Cervi-Trac is a non-invasive, gentle therapy with an excellent safety profile. We assess every patient before recommending cervical decompression to ensure it’s appropriate for your specific condition. It is not recommended for patients with fractures, severe osteoporosis, or spinal instability.
Will I feel it working?
Most patients feel a gentle release of tension during the session and notice meaningful symptom improvement within the first few weeks of consistent care. Because disc healing is a biological process, it takes time — but our patients consistently report progressive improvement when they commit to their care plan.
How is this different from a regular neck massage or stretching?
Massage and stretching address muscles. Cervi-Trac addresses the discs and nerve roots themselves — the structural source of most chronic neck pain and radiculopathy. It works at a level that massage simply cannot reach.
Can I combine Cervi-Trac with Back on Trac?
Absolutely. Many of our patients who have both cervical and lumbar disc involvement benefit from both therapies within the same care plan. We’ll design a program that targets all the areas that need attention.
