This is a great question, and the answer is simple, the lasting effect of spinal decompression therapy depends on your particular condition. For example, if you have severe degenerative disc disease with severe spinal stenosis, your results, if you respond positively, would likely be temporary and you would require periodic treatment to help maintain decreased pain levels and increased function. This is the reality of the situation, you may benefit, but you may not. Everyone who is determined to be a candidate should be placed on a trial of two weeks of treatment daily, to see if you are going to improve. The trial allows a slow progression of increasing weight, and allows the doctor to see how your body is going to respond to spinal decompression. If you do well with your trial, then you should continue until you hit a plateau, where you stop improving in pain and function after two reevaluations.
