Testimonial
When I first came into Dr. Fink’s office I had excruciating pain in my left arm and the back of my neck. I wasn’t walking straight. I was in pain when I was sitting down and even lying down. I tried putting heat on my neck and shoulder area and the next day it felt worse. Dr. Fink put me on the Decompression table and I literally felt the pain leaving my arm. I’m feeling so much better now. I have not had any pain return to my arm. My family is extremely happy that I’m not in severe pain any longer. Dr. Fink took my pain serious and continues to get me back into better health with each visit. His staff is friendly and helpful, making scheduling appointments easy for me. It’s nice to have a Doctor to listen to you and help you with your health issues.
I would recommend my friends and family to Dr. Fink’s office.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is Spinal Decompression Therapy and what are its advantages?
|
 |
Spinal decompression therapy is a safe, non-surgical traction-based treatment for herniated or bulging discs in the neck and lower back. Anyone who has back, neck, arm or leg pain may be helped by spinal decompression therapy. |
| |
|
What type of decompression system is used, and are the doctors certified in spinal decompression therapy?
|
After a significant amount of research, our office chose what we believe to be the most sophisticated, technologically advanced, state-of-the-art decompression system in the world, the Kennedy Decompression Table. We also selected this decompression system due to its ability to treat discs in both the neck and the low back.
The doctor completed the Kennedy Decompression Technique course work and passed the qualifying examination to achieve the status of "Certified Practitioner" in spinal decompression therapy. |

Who can benefit from Spinal Decompression Therapy?
|
 |
Anyone who has back pain or neck pain caused in whole or in part by a damaged disc may be helped by spinal decompression therapy. These conditions include herniated, protruding or bulging discs, spinal stenosis, sciatica or even failed surgery. |
|
|
Are there medical studies that document the effectiveness of Spinal Decompression Therapy?
|
| |
Yes! One study documented by MRI up to 90% reduction of disc herniations in 10 of 14 cases and other studies reported that the majority of ruptured disc patients achieved "good" to "excellent" results after spinal decompression therapy.

| |
Are there conditions where Spinal Decompression Therapy is not indicated?
|
 |
Spinal surgery with instrumentation (screws, metal plates or “cages”) is contraindicated. However, spinal decompression therapy after bone fusion or non-fusion surgery, can be performed.
Spinal decompression therapy also is not recommended for pregnant women, patients who have severe osteoporosis, severe obesity or severe nerve damage. |
|
| |
How many will treatments will be needed and what is the cost? Can the costs be financed?
|
The specific treatment plan will be determined by the doctor after your examination. Based on current research, the best results have been achieved utilizing 20 sessions ($75.00 each) over a 6 to 8 week period.
Based on that most common protocol, the total cost of the spinal decompression sessions would only be $1,500.00...which is a small fraction of the $5,000+ amounts that some other doctors are charging.
We also offer CareCredit that will allow you to finance the entire cost and make 6 monthly payments with no interest. Or if you need more time, you can set up repayment for up to 60 months. To apply for financing online and get instant approval in advance, just go to CareCredit.com.
