Hamad Medical Corporation’s Male Physiotherapy Department at Rumailah Hospital has recently opened its new Spinal Decompression Clinic for chronic neck and back pain management. The clinic is located at Rumailah Hospital’s Outpatient Department and provides the necessary treatment for physiotherapy patients using advanced technologies and cutting-edge devices.
The Spinal Decompression Clinic was opened under the supervision of Dr Hanadi Al Hamad, Deputy Chief of the Department of Geriatrics and Long-Term Care at HMC and the Chief Executive Officer and Medical Director of Rumailah Hospital. Noora Al Madahka, Assistant Executive Director of Clinical Services and Rehabilitation at HMC confirmed that the technologies introduced in the new clinic help to improve the recovery rate for chronic neck and low back pain for patients. Spine decompression technology is considered the most advanced and non-invasive used in physiotherapy by extending the spine using a mechanical stretching table to relieve neck, back and leg pain. The procedure reduces pressure on the nerves and vertebrae and allows blood and oxygen to flow to the spine, enhancing recovery rates. (TNN) page 2
