Description

SPINAL DECOMPRESSION SYSTEMTECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present invention is directed towards spinal decompression system.BACKGROUND

[0002] Background description includes information that may be useful in understanding the present invention. It is not an admission that any of the information provided herein is prior art or relevant to the presently claimed invention, or that any publication specifically or implicitly referenced is prior art.

[0003] The spine is one of the most important parts of a human body. Without it a human keeps oneself upright or even stand up. It gives the body structure and support, and allows humans to the spine is also designed to protect the spinal cord which is a column of nerves that connects the brain with the rest of the body. Without a spinal cord, one cannot move any part of the body and even the internal organs do not function properly. Hence keeping the spine healthy is vital.

[0004] The spine is made up of 24 small bones (vertebrae) that are stacked on top of each other to create the spinal column. Between each vertebra is a soft, gellike cushion called a disc that helps absorb pressure and keeps the bones from rubbing against each other. Each vertebra is held to the others by groups of ligaments. Ligaments connect bones to bones; tendons connect muscles to bones. There are also tendons that fasten muscles to the vertebrae. The spinal column also has real joints (just like the knee or elbow or any other joints) called facet joints. The facet joints link the vertebrae together and give them the flexibility to move against each other.

[0005] The spine has three main segments: the cervical spine, the thoracic spine, and the lumbar spine. The cervical is the upper part of the spine, made up of seven vertebrae (bones). The thoracic is the centre portion of the spine, consisting of 12 vertebrae. The lower portion of the spine is called the lumbar spine. It is usually made up of five vertebrae, however, some people may have six lumbar vertebrae.Below the lumbar spine is the sacrum. The sacrum is actually a group of specialized vertebrae that connects the spine to the pelvis. During development (those nine months before birth), these vertebrae grow together or fuse creating one large "specialized" vertebral bone that forms the base of your spine and center of your pelvis. The nerves that leave the spine in the sacral region control the bowel and bladder functions and give sensation (feeling) to the crotch area.

[0006] The normal spine has an "S"-like curve when looking at it from the side. This allows for an even distribution of weight. The "S" curve helps a healthy spine withstand all kinds of stress. The cervical spine curves slightly inward, the thoracic curves outward, and the lumbar curves inward. Even though the lower portion of spine holds most of the body's weight, each segment relies upon the strength of the others to function properly.

[0007] The S like curve directly contributes to a human’s height as well. If the curvature can be made lesser, height of a person may increase or vice versa. However due various reasons mainly including bad posture over years as well as age related degeneration, the “S” like curve can get distorted and can become steeper. This leads to a series of problems. A person becomes stooped and his height decreases. Besides, as one ages, the disks between the vertebrae start to dry out, or the spaces in the spine for the spinal cord and nerves branching out from it also may shrink. Due stress, the disks may even break. Consequently, bones can press against nerves. This can lead to tingling, severe pain, numbness and weakness in affected limbs. Back pain, sciatica pain that can run down to the legs are frequent results.

[0008] A non-surgical treatment to alleviate above situations is spinal decompression. This is a type of motorized traction and works by gently stretching the spine. That changes the force and position of the spine. This change takes pressure off the spinal disks. As a result, bulging or herniated disks may retract, taking pressure off nerves and other structures in the spine. This in turn, helps promote movement of water, oxygen, and nutrient-rich fluids into the disks so they can heal. Nonsurgical spinal decompression is used to treat: back or neck pain or sciatica, which is pain, weakness, or tingling that extends down the leg, bulging orherniated disks or degenerative disk disease, worn spinal joints (called posterior facet syndrome) or injured or diseased spinal nerve roots

[0009] However, existing apparatuses for spinal decompression are expensive, motorised machines. They are costly to own as well as operate and maintain. Besides, they need specialized training to operate and a lot of space to install.

[0010] Hence there is a need in the art for an exercise apparatus for spinal decompression that obviates the above issues with existing solutions.OBJECTS OF THE INVENTION

[0011] It is an object of the present disclosure to provide for an exercise apparatus for spinal decompression that is simple and easy to operate and maintain.
