Spinal decompression and disc therapy are used for chronic back and neck pain that traces back to bulging or herniated discs, sciatica, or narrowed disc space from wear and tear. Most Puchong clinics offering this run it through a motorized traction table: you lie down, get strapped in, and the machine applies a controlled pulling force on the spine over a series of stretch-and-release cycles. The idea is to open up space between the vertebrae, take pressure off the disc and any pinched nerve, and let fluid and nutrients move back into the disc area. Some clinics pair this with heat therapy, manual adjustments, or rehab exercises afterward to help the surrounding muscles hold the correction.
Puchong has 17 businesses listing this service, and they are not all set up the same way. Look for a clinic that takes a proper history and, ideally, reviews imaging (X-ray or MRI) before putting you on the table rather than starting decompression on day one. Ask how many sessions a typical case needs and what the machine and protocol actually are, since traction tables vary a lot in quality and setup. A clinic that explains your specific disc issue in plain terms and adjusts the plan as you progress is usually a safer bet than one selling a fixed package upfront.
