Maana WellnessNon-Surgical Spinal Decompression for Back and Neck Pain
If you’re dealing with chronic back or neck pain and want to avoid surgery, spinal decompression therapy gently relieves pressure on your spine to promote healing — no incisions, no hospital admission. Maana Wellness offers spinal decompression as an assessment-led program, with your session count and focus area (cervical or lumbar) determined by a physiotherapist, not a fixed package.
What Spinal Decompression Treats
- Chronic lower back pain
- Neck pain and cervical spine issues
- Disc-related pain (bulging or herniated discs)
- Sciatica and nerve compression symptoms
- General spinal pressure from prolonged sitting or poor posture
This is a non-surgical therapy — it is not a substitute for emergency care or a diagnosed condition requiring surgical intervention. Your physiotherapist will assess whether spinal decompression is appropriate for your specific situation.
How It Works
Spinal decompression therapy gently stretches the spine, creating negative pressure within the discs that can help relieve compression on nerves and promote a better healing environment for the affected area.
Your program is built around you. Session count depends entirely on your assessment — for wellness-focused spinal decompression, this can run up to 10 to 15 sessions, with your physiotherapist determining the right number and whether to focus on the cervical or lumbar spine based on your specific condition. There’s no fixed package here, because no two spines need the same thing.

Is spinal decompression therapy surgery?
No. Spinal decompression therapy at Maana Wellness is a non-surgical treatment that gently stretches the spine to relieve pressure — there are no incisions and no hospital admission required. It is different from spinal decompression surgery, which is a separate surgical procedure offered elsewhere.
How many sessions of spinal decompression will I need?
This depends entirely on your individual assessment. For wellness-focused programs, this typically runs up to 10 to 15 sessions, with your physiotherapist determining the right number based on your condition.
Does spinal decompression treat neck pain or only back pain?
Both. Spinal decompression can be focused on either the cervical (neck) or lumbar (lower back) spine, depending on where your pain originates. This is determined during your assessment.
Is spinal decompression painful?
No. The therapy is designed to gently relieve pressure on the spine, not create it. Most clients find sessions comfortable.
Who should not get spinal decompression therapy?
Certain conditions may make spinal decompression inappropriate — this is assessed individually during your consultation. If you have a diagnosed condition requiring surgical intervention, spinal decompression therapy is not a substitute, and your physiotherapist will advise you accordingly.
