Medical Tourism is a rapidly growing trend and is now expanding to include advancements in Chiropractic care such as spinal decompression therapy. Dr. Ferraro believes the internationally rich country of Panama is the perfect setting for people around the world to incorporate a world-class vacation with alternative, non-invasive treatments for a lengthy list of ailments, diseases and injuries.

Advanced treatments in non-surgical spinal decompression therapy mean the avoidance of going under the knife for many suffering from debilitating spinal injuries.  When the therapy is performed at a medical tourism resort, a patient’s family can be by their side while enjoying a vacation at the same time.  Added benefits of medical tourism resorts, according to Dr. Ferraro, is the ability of the physicians to control the lifestyle of the patient being treated, enabling a healthy, speedy recovery.

“A medical resort can create a path to recovery that encompasses the entire mind and body,” explains Dr. Ferraro. “As opposed to just prescribing a drug and sending a patient home, when they are at the resort their recovery may incorporate meditation, a special diet, detoxification programs and more.”

The Panama-based medical resort would bring together the best physicians from around the world and offer alternative, non-invasive treatments for cancer, spinal injuries anti-viral treatment and more.

For severe back pain and neck pain from a herniated or bulging disc, Dr. Ferraro says spinal decompression is an effective treatment and often times can help patients avoid surgery. Published literature has shown a 92% success rate in treating disc injuries with decompression therapies.

During the procedure in Dr. Ferraro’s NJ office, patients are placed in a harness that keeps them in a stable position while a computer-controlled series of stretches targets specific areas of the spine.  The duration of the therapy session is approximately 25 minutes, with patients receiving a series of 20-25 sessions over a period of 7-8 weeks.  Dr. Ferraro offers decompression therapy in conjunction with manual treatments and physical therapy for maximum effectiveness. 

According to Dr. Ferraro, spinal decompression accomplishes two things. It increases the height between the vertebrae to create a negative pressure within a disc, which will then draw back the disc material. It also increases blood flow to the disc which allows the outer layer or the annular bands to start laying down new cartilage fibers, so that disc lesions can actually be treated without surgery.

“The beauty behind spinal decompression is that it allows the blood to return back to the disc, which enables the healing process,” says Dr. Ferraro.  “Blood is very essential to this whole process; increasing blood flow to the disc allows natural healing to occur.”

Dr. Ferraro was one of the first Chiropractors in NJ to offer the treatment and travels nationally training Chiropractors on using spinal decompression equipment.  Dr. Ferraro says the treatment is so effective, many members of the medical community, including doctors, surgeons, cardiologists and dentists visit his office for decompression treatment.
