Spinal Decompression Therapy in Anchorage, Alaska
Non-Surgical Treatment for Disc Injuries & Sciatica
True Life Chiropractic
At True Life Chiropractic, we offer spinal decompression therapy using the Triton DTS decompression system to help patients suffering from disc injuries, sciatica, chronic back pain, and neck pain. Spinal decompression is a gentle, non-surgical treatment designed to reduce pressure on spinal discs and nerves and help the body heal naturally.
Many patients who have been told they may need injections or surgery may benefit from spinal decompression therapy as a conservative treatment option.
What Is Spinal Decompression?
Spinal decompression therapy involves gently stretching and relaxing the spine using a computerized traction table. This process reduces pressure inside the spinal discs and helps improve circulation to injured discs and surrounding tissues.
When pressure is reduced in the disc, it may help:
- Reduce disc bulges or herniations
- Relieve pressure on nerves
- Improve movement and mobility
- Increase blood flow and nutrients to injured discs
- Reduce inflammation
- Decrease pain and muscle tension
Spinal decompression therapy is comfortable, controlled, and customized for each patient.

The Triton DTS Decompression System
Our office uses the Triton DTS spinal decompression system, a computerized decompression table designed to provide precise, controlled spinal traction. The Triton system allows for customized treatment based on each patient’s condition, height, weight, and injury location.
Treatments are gentle and relaxing, and many patients report relief after several sessions as pressure is reduced and healing begins.
What to Expect During Spinal Decompression Treatment
During spinal decompression therapy:
- You will lie comfortably on the decompression table.
- A harness will be placed around your hips or upper body depending on the area being treated.
- The table will gently stretch and relax the spine in cycles.
- Each treatment typically lasts about 15–20 minutes.
- Treatments are usually performed multiple times per week for several weeks depending on your condition.
Spinal decompression is often combined with chiropractic adjustments, manual therapy, rehabilitation exercises, and home care instructions for best results.
