Non-surgical spinal decompression is an FDA-cleared, computerized therapy designed to gently reduce pressure inside injured spinal discs — helping address the source of disc-related pain rather than just masking symptoms.
Unlike general stretching, traditional physical therapy, or injections that primarily manage discomfort, spinal decompression uses controlled, targeted traction to create the conditions discs need to recover.
During treatment, decompression may help:
Reduce pressure within bulging or herniated discs
Create gentle negative pressure that encourages disc material to move back into place
Improve the flow of oxygen, fluids, and nutrients to damaged tissue
Support disc rehydration and the body’s natural healing process
Because spinal decompression focuses on reducing disc pressure and nerve irritation, it is commonly used for conditions such as herniated discs, bulging discs, degenerative disc changes, and nerve compression that can lead to sciatica.


Many back and neck pain treatments are designed to manage symptoms, not correct the underlying problem. Medications, injections, and quick visits may offer temporary relief, but they often don’t address what’s actually causing the pain in the first place.
At Disc Centers of America Metairie-Gretna, our approach is different.
Instead of chasing symptoms, we focus on identifying what’s creating pressure on the spine and nerves. Once the underlying issue is identified, we develop a personalized spinal decompression plan designed to reduce disc pressure and support long-term improvement — not just short-term relief.
If you’re frustrated with brief appointments, recurring pain, or “band-aid” solutions that never seem to last, you’re not alone. Many people live with chronic back or neck pain for years simply because the true source of the problem was never addressed.

Dr. Kim Hoang is a Louisiana native who understands disc pain firsthand.
After experiencing multiple car accidents at a young age, Dr. Hoang developed chronic back and neck pain caused by disc herniations. Her personal journey with unresolved pain led her to chiropractic care — and ultimately to becoming a doctor herself.
She studied at Louisiana State University and earned her Doctor of Chiropractic degree from Parker University. Dr. Hoang has been practicing in the New Orleans area since 2001 and is the owner of Disc Centers of America Metairie-Gretna.
Today, she specializes in helping patients with disc herniations, chronic pain, and neuropathy using advanced, non-surgical spinal decompression.
