“ Over my years of practicing , I had patients who eventually stopped responding to chiropractic manipulation because their degeneration had gotten to a point where they were throwing their money away because they were getting little to no relief ,” Mulcahy said .
Mulcahy said longtime patients began disappearing because they weren ’ t getting results . In discussing the reasons , Mulcahy realized it wasn ’ t him ; it was basic chiropractic care wasn ’ t working .
His patients turned to injections and sometimes invasive surgery , which prompted him to explore this spinal decompression treatment that was producing results .
“ I knew I needed to research something out there that would help folks recover and ease their pain ,” Mulcahy said . “ The more research I did , the more I realized spinal decompression really works .”

for many people , but sometimes there are needs that go beyond that .” The results were instantly staggering for his patients . “ Before decompression treatments , I could barely do my work . I was in awful pain and had to take pain pills every day , which made me tired ,” Katie Miller of Apple Creek said . “ Since doing the treatments , I have had very good results , and I ’ m off my pain pills and pain free .”

Before I couldn ’ t because of too much pain . I would recommend this procedure before trying any back surgery .”

his decompression efforts . Many people with chronic lower back and neck pain have found relief through decompression .
While the scientific terms surrounding what happens to a person ’ s spine over time can be difficult to understand , Mulcahy puts it in simpler terms .
“ It ’ s similar in the discs of the spine , and when disc degeneration gets to a point where the supporting rings inside the spinal discs begin to crack , bulges and herniations occur causing pressure on the spinal nerves connected to sciatica . When left untreated , the discs can dissolve completely and the vertebrae will fuse together at which point spinal decompression won ’ t be a possibility and surgery is inevitable .”
In providing this specialized treatment , spinal decompression allows those damaged rings to heal up by releasing the pressure on the spine naturally , rather than through surgery , where that bulging spinal disc is cut or burned off .
Mulcahy ’ s spinal decompression treatments include half price monthly maintenance pulls that help keep the spine in shape .
