"There may be a better path forward — and it doesn't involve an operating room."
Unlike clinics that rely on a single treatment, we address your disc herniation from every angle — structural, cellular, and biochemical — for results that last.
Spinal Decompression
Using a computerized decompression table, we apply gentle, controlled traction that creates negative pressure within your damaged disc. This vacuum effect retracts the herniated material back into place, takes pressure off pinched nerves, and improves the flow of oxygen and nutrients so your disc can heal naturally.
Class IV Laser Therapy
Our high-power Class IV laser — the strongest available — penetrates deep into spinal tissues to stimulate cellular repair, increase circulation, and reduce inflammation around the injured disc and irritated nerves. This speeds your body's recovery and provides significant pain relief, often from the very first session.
Shockwave Therapy
Acoustic wave energy targets chronic inflammation, scar tissue, and adhesions surrounding your spinal joints. This breaks down the buildup that contributes to ongoing pain and restricted movement, optimizing the surrounding support structures so your spine can hold its correction.
Metabolic & Nutritional Support
Disc healing requires more than mechanical treatment. We incorporate targeted supplementation to support collagen synthesis, disc hydration, nerve regeneration, and inflammation control — helping your body rebuild and stabilize injured structures from the inside out.
The Power of a Combined Approach
Each therapy amplifies the others. Decompression creates the mechanical correction. Laser accelerates cellular repair. Shockwave clears the way for healing. And metabolic support gives your body the raw materials it needs to rebuild. This is why our patients get better faster — and stay better longer — than with any single treatment alone.
Every treatment plan is customized based on your imaging, the severity of your herniation, and your individual health goals.
Don't just take our word for it. Here's what our patients have to say about their experience at Dixie Chiro.
"I was seen for 2 herniated discs in my low back. My treatment plan was laser and decompression. I was able to go back to work after 2 weeks and back to full function within 2–3 months. Dr. Wagner and his staff were amazing. Friendly and empathetic. Now I'm back to my happy old self and doing the things I love!"
"I was told I had Spinal Stenosis and needed neck surgery before I went to Dixie Chiropractic. I had neck decompression and laser therapy. Pain went from a seven to a two. No surgery is the key for me."
"I had a slipped disc in my neck and Dr. Wagner treated it with laser therapy. I was able to heal quickly and didn't have the problem again. The goal of the office is to get to the root of your problem and get you feeling completely better."
"While I was on the decompression machine, the daily migraines I had been having — literally I felt it slip away and have not had another since, and that was a month ago! The laser therapy, chiropractic adjustments, and massage therapy add to the whole experience."
"Dr. Wagner is a regular guy and talks to you the same. The staff is so friendly and professional, I couldn't believe it. I highly recommend them."
