Spinal Decompression Frequently Asked Questions
*NEW* Back-on-Trac Therapy
Overview
Chronic back pain can wear you down over time, turning simple, everyday movements into frustrating obstacles. If you’re looking for a safe, non-surgical way to find relief, Back on Trac Therapy offers a gentle and effective approach through spinal decompression.
Using controlled traction, the Back-on-Trac device carefully stretches the spine to reduce pressure on discs and surrounding nerves. This can help ease discomfort related to herniated discs, sciatica, and general stiffness. Beyond pain relief, the treatment supports improved mobility and encourages better spinal alignment—helping you move more comfortably and get back to your normal routine with greater ease.
Spinal Traction that Works
Back on Trac offers a range of treatment options designed to relieve pain and manage symptoms caused by stress or pressure on muscles, joints, and the skeletal system.
How the Back-on-Trac Device Works
The Back-on-Trac device provides a comfortable, non-invasive way to deliver spinal decompression—without the need for belts, restraints, medication, or surgery.
Treatment begins in a seated position, then gently reclines you into a relaxed state. The device uses controlled stretching, combined with heat and vibration, to reduce pressure on the spine, discs, and surrounding nerves. It also helps relieve tension in the back, neck, hips, and thighs.
This therapy is especially effective for conditions like herniated discs, sciatica, and degenerative disc issues. Sessions are quick—typically 10–15 minutes—with no downtime, making it easy to fit into your routine while supporting pain relief, mobility, and natural healing.

Overall, Back-on-Trac is a practical, comfortable solution for managing chronic back pain and improving spinal health.
Why is Back-on-Track a Non-Invasive Alternative to Surgery?
Back-on-Trac Therapy offers a non-invasive, drug-free alternative for back pain relief—without the risks or downtime of surgery. Using a combination of spinal decompression, heat, and vibration, it gently reduces pressure on discs and nerves while you remain comfortably reclined.
Unlike medication, which often masks symptoms, this treatment focuses on the root cause of pain. Improved circulation helps support natural healing, while heat and vibration ease muscle tension and improve mobility.
Compared to surgery—which can involve long recovery times and uncertain outcomes—Back-on-Trac is a safe, efficient option with no downtime. It’s a practical solution for those looking to relieve pain and get back to daily life more comfortably.
Testimonials
"Back on Trac has absolutely changed my life. When I first began Back on Trac my back hurt daily by 8 AM. Between Back on Trac and regular adjustments my quality of life has vastly improved. I am now able to go days at a time without any pain."
"I have had scoliosis since I was in middle school. The Back on Trac has been amazing. This machine has gotten my spine as close to straight as possible. I know the scoliosis will never 100% go away, but the improvement I have made on this machine is amazing. I like how the chair can be set to help me and my specific needs."
"The Back on Trac treatment is amazing. Any tightness in my lower back would go away after each treatment. The way it stretches and moves right to left really releases any tight muscles and gets them 'back on track'. Treatment really works."
"When I get off of the Back On Trac, the pain is gone. I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world. In fact, I'd take it home if I could."
"I've been on other equipment before and it didn't have the full range of capabilities for the adjustment necessary. The traction and sideways movement of the Back on Trac is exactly what I need. It is very helpful."
"The use of the Back on Trac system for back care is very relaxing. The decompression makes a big difference and I feel better after use."
