Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression
Using the advanced, computerized Triton DTS Spinal Decompression table, treatment applies carefully controlled cycles of stretching and relaxation. This helps lower pressure within affected discs and may relieve irritation around nearby spinal nerves.
How it may support your recovery:
- Reduces pressure inside compressed spinal discs
- Creates more space around irritated nerve roots
- Supports the movement of oxygen, fluids, and nutrients
How it fits the plan: Decompression is often the foundation of care, while other therapies may be added to address inflammation, restricted movement, weakness, or poor movement patterns.

Laser therapy delivers focused light energy to areas of discomfort or injury. It may help support cellular activity, circulation, and the body’s natural response to inflammation without injections or downtime.
How it may support your recovery:
- Targets irritated muscles, joints, and soft tissues
- May help ease inflammation and sensitivity
- Supports tissue repair and comfortable movement
How it complements decompression: Calming the tissues surrounding the spine may make it easier to relax during decompression and move more comfortably between visits.

Chiropractic Adjustments
Gentle chiropractic adjustments may be used to improve motion in restricted joints and address movement patterns that place added strain on the spine. The technique and areas treated are selected for each patient’s condition and comfort level.
How it may support your recovery:
- Improves motion in restricted spinal and pelvic joints
- Addresses compensation above and below the painful area
- Supports more balanced, comfortable movement
How it complements decompression: Decompression focuses on disc pressure, while adjustments may help surrounding joints move more freely so the spine works as a coordinated system.

“I am 71 yrs old and have never been to a chiropractor. For a year I had been suffering with chronic, sometimes crippling nerve pain. My son recommended Dr Mehr @Foothill Family Chiropractic. Dr. Mehr and his friendly, competent staff immediately put me at ease. With his decompression treatments I am able to walk better often with no pain. Here’s to more and more pain free days. I highly recommend Foothill Family Chiropractic.”
— A. K.★★★★★
“Foothill Family Chiropractic is unique in their approach to treatment. Dr. Mehr treated my back injury over 6 years ago after an auto accident. He treated me with decompression treatment, which my previous chiropractor didn't do. And I have been pain free since then. I recently saw him for an adjustment for some tightness in my lower back.
Dr. Mehr is unique because he listens to you then educates you on your issue then explains the customized treatment to help you get better. As a dentist, my back and neck are important. Dr. Mehr has kept my back and neck in good health.”
★★★★★
“I have seen Chiropractors off and on for over 20 years. Dr Mehr is by far the best chiropractor I have ever gone to. In fact, after incurring a back injury in January 2023 I started with a particular chiropractor who was recommending surgery at my third appointment.
I was looking for a non-surgical solution.
I then came to Dr Mehr needing to use a low back brace to stand up. I brought x-rays and an MRI I had done with me. He explained what they were showing and what treatment he would recommend. Through spinal decompression and chiropractic adjustments, by April 2023 I did not need to use the back brace anymore.
Recently, September 2024, Dr Mehr took x-rays of my neck. After educating me to what they were showing, we started neck decompression treatments. Within a month of these treatments I am already seeing increased mobility, strength and balance.
Going to Dr Mehr is the best decision I ever made. He is very knowledgeable, very skilled and very friendly. He cares about his patients and does his best to help them get, and stay, healthy. I HIGHLY recommend Foothill Family Chiropractic. They are the BEST.”

Questions About Your Path to Relief
Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression Therapy is safe and effective for the majority of patients. An examination helps determine whether it is suitable for you.
Most patients describe treatment as comfortable. Settings are customized, and your provider monitors your response throughout each session.
Yes. Through gradual degrees of calculated increases of distractive force and calculated angles to the specific vertebral disc, Spinal Decompression Therapy slowly creates space between the discs to pull in the necessary nutrients and oxygen. Basically, the decompression device will slowly pull the vertebral discs apart to create the vacuum effect and allow the disc to rehydrate with the aforementioned fluids, which leads to pain relief and healing.
Most plans involve 20 sessions over 6-8 weeks, though individual response varies. We monitor progress through symptom tracking and functional assessments, adjusting frequency as needed.
With proper aftercare and maintenance, many patients maintain improvements for months to years. We recommend periodic re-evaluations and occasional maintenance sessions based on individual needs and activity levels.
Our doctor will perform an extensive medical examination and go over your medical history to identify the need for Spinal Decompression Therapy. If there are no conditions present that would cause other problems from this treatment, then the doctor will recommend this treatment. Typically, patients who have been experiencing chronic back pain for six months or longer may be possible candidates. However, for patients with severe back problems or for those that have had spinal fusion or implants, Spinal Decompression Therapy may not be effective.
Disc bulges, protrusions, and contained herniations often show good response. The therapy creates negative intradiscal pressure that can draw protruding material back toward center though results vary by individual healing capacity.
We avoid decompression with certain implant types, severe osteoporosis, spinal fractures, tumors, or advanced instability. Thorough screening including imaging review ensures patient safety before starting treatment.
