Spinal Decompression

End Back Pain WITHOUT Drugs or Surgery!!!

If you have been suffering from low back pain, neck pain, or other spinal injuries, and have been told that a lifetime of taking drugs or a risky surgery are you only options, we have new hope for you. 

The Chattanooga Triton Decompression Traction System (“DTS”) is essentially a method of stretching your body to relieve the pressure that builds up in the spine through various causes, including injury, obesity, inactivity and over-taxing of the cervical and lumbar muscles. DTS uses gentle intermittent distractive forces, thereby creating an unloading and separating of the joints of the spine.

The Chattanooga Triton Decompression Traction System can be an essential element of chiropractic therapy, using safe and effective FDA-approved equipment. The Triton Decompression Traction System may be used to relieve peripheral extremity radiation, arm pain, leg pain, sciatica, and pain associated with:

  • Herniated Discs
  • Bulging discs
  • Degenerative joint disease
  • Degenerative disc disease
  • Facet syndrome
  • Joint pain
  • Radicular pain
  • Discogenic pain
  • Prolapsed discs

How does it work?

The Chattanooga Triton Decompression Traction System’s pull-relax patterns create a suctioning effect on the disc, much like pulling a balloon from both ends, and the middle portion narrows as a result. The goal of DTS therapy is to reduce the pressure on the nerve, most commonly from a herniated or protruding disc. DTS therapy also decreases muscle spasms and muscle guarding, and breaks up adhesions, in order to facilitate increased range of motion and decrease pain. In addition, spinal decompression helps improve blood flow and nutrient exchange at the disc, which results in pain relief, improved healing, and slower degeneration. The Triton Decompression Traction System is for cervical and lumbar traction

Frequently Asked Questions about The Chattanooga Triton Decompression Traction DTS


Q. Will The Chattanooga Triton Decompression Traction DTS Therapy treatments hurt? Is it safe?

A. The Chattanooga Triton Decompression Traction System treatments are one of the most gentle and comfortable therapies available. The treatments utilize equipment with proven safety and efficacy. Most patients report a mild sense of stretch on their neck, back or hips, and often fall asleep during treatment sessions.


Q. Is The Chattanooga Triton Decompression Traction DTS Therapy new?

A. Although traction therapy has been around for thousands of years, Decompressive Traction is relatively new. Advances in equipment and procedures have dramatically improved effectiveness. The Chattanooga Triton Decompression Traction System is the most comprehensive program available, allowing the safe delivery of this previously hospital-based therapy in our office. Continual improvements in the delivery system and regular updates in protocol keep The Chattanooga Triton Decompression Traction System at the forefront of non-invasive disc therapy. Each year over 50,000 patients are treated with DTS Therapy and that number is growing.


Q. Why is The Chattanooga Triton Decompression Traction DTS Therapy more successful than other treatment options?

A. The Chattanooga Triton Decompression Traction System is a comprehensive program of the newest traction techniques and targeted “core” stabilization exercises. In addition, we use chiropractic adjustments to restore motion and alignment to the spine. These treatments in spinal manipulation have proven effectiveness in back care. It is this multi-faceted approach that makes the overall treatment so effective. Additionally, discs have been shown to be a predominate site of pain radiating to the extremities, so treating it as directly as possible makes sense. The blending of focused traction to the site, rehabilitation to the supporting structures, and spinal alignment correction with appropriate spinal manipulation from your chiropractor, makes the treatment unique. DTS affects the disc as directly as possible without surgery.


Q. Will my pain go away for good?

A. Although it is difficult to predict the future, our experience is that most patients do find long-term relief or effective management of their pain when they complete the entire program of treatments using The Chattanooga Triton Decompression Traction. Regular home exercise and periodic visits to our clinic will help in maintaining your spinal health and reduce the probability of reoccurrence. As with any comprehensive rehabilitation program your continued home care exercises and discretion in some daily activities is key to long-term relief.


Q. How much will it cost?

A. Our office visits vary as to the extent of care needed. However, we promise to only do those procedures necessary for your fullest recovery. You always have the choice as to the extent of care. Our staff will review all costs, payment options.
