Gentle, Non-Surgical Relief for Neck, Back, and Sciatic Pain

If you’re struggling with chronic back, neck, or sciatic nerve pain in Agoura Hills, spinal decompression therapy offers a safe, non-invasive path toward relief. At Summit Health Group, located just minutes from Agoura Hills at 55 Rolling Oaks Dr, Suite 100, Thousand Oaks, Dr. Shay Shani provides personalized decompression plans to address the root cause of spine-related pain—not just the symptoms.

Spinal decompression therapy uses a computerized decompression technology to carefully stretch the spine, creating negative pressure within the intervertebral discs. This helps reduce disc compression, relieve nerve pressure, and encourage rehydration of damaged discs. Over time, nutrients and oxygen flow back into the discs, supporting long-term healing and improved spinal function. Many Agoura Hills patients choose decompression therapy as a natural alternative to surgery or ongoing pain medications.

Why Agoura Hills Residents Choose Summit Health

Advanced Spinal Decompression Solutions

  • Non-Invasive, Drug-Free Therapy
  • Improved Mobility & Posture
  • Certified Chiropractic & Rehabilitation Specialists
  • Individualized Treatment Plans

By targeting structural causes rather than masking symptoms, decompression therapy supports long-lasting improvements in mobility, comfort, and spinal alignment.

Spinal decompression therapy is designed to treat common disc and nerve-related issues, including:

  • Bulging & Herniated Discs: When discs protrude or rupture, they can irritate nearby nerves, causing radiating pain, numbness, and weakness. Decompression helps retract the disc and reduce nerve impingement.
  • Degenerative Disc Disease: Age-related disc wear can lead to chronic stiffness, inflammation, and loss of mobility. Decompression encourages disc rehydration and nutrient exchange to support healthier function.
  • Sciatica: When the sciatic nerve is compressed—often by a disc issue—it can cause shooting pain into the hips, legs, or feet. Decompression helps relieve this pressure safely and effectively.
  • Chronic Neck & Lower-Back Pain: Agoura Hills residents dealing with posture-related pain, injury recovery, or repetitive strain may benefit from decompression’s controlled stretching and pressure-relief effects.

Our integrated care model—featuring Primary Care, Physical Therapy, and Chiropractic Medicine—ensures that every patient receives coordinated treatment for complete health and wellness.

I started as a new patient with Carrie Sadler and she is great! Took her time with me and set me up herself for future appointments. Calls you personally for test results whether good or not. I feel as if I am in good hands. I also had a follow up call with Kerrie Lauchner and she took her time with me and was very kind. I have never felt rushed and I feel heard.
