Spinal Decompression
Utilizing a therapeutic, computer-programmed traction table to create negative pressure between the discs of the spine, Spinal Decompression allows for the herniated or bulging disc tissue to ease back into the disc space. This controlled, mechanical traction on the spine creates space and encourages a healing environment for the disc, allowing oxygen, nutrients, and water to flow back into the once cramped disc environment.
The forms of back pain that benefit greatly from this modality include:
If you are experiencing pain from any of these maladies, Spinal Decompression—often combined with physical therapy—can be an excellent source of pain relief. Patients have experienced relief immediately following their first treatment. The relief is produced by the space that is created by the traction, but the beauty of this treatment is that it promotes a healthy environment and stimulation of blood supply for the disc, which leads to healing, in addition to pain relief.
Prior to beginning treatments, we evaluate you to determine if you are a candidate. Your medical history, x-rays, and CT/ MRI scans are carefully reviewed. The process begins by having the patient lie on a traction table. The table is constructed so that the top stays stable, but the bottom can slide side-to-side to provide relaxation and traction. Depending on the table and the therapy needed, you will either lie on your back or your side and a harness will hold your hips in place. Each treatment takes 30-45 minutes and a series of appointments is necessary to allow the disc to heal. Spinal Decompression may be combined with other treatment modalities such as heat and/or cold and/or ultrasound.
Spinal Decompression therapy is a safe and effective treatment for pain without the risks associated with surgery, anesthesia, infection, injections, or prescription medication. Clinical studies of non-surgical Spinal Decompression therapy are reporting that a high percentage of patients show significant reduction of pain.

With a focus on patient care and management, Dr. Alejandro Amador Mioni has treated over 10,000 patients and given over 200,000 treatments during the last 20 years of practice. In 1999, he graduated from Palmer College of Chiropractic West in San Jose, California and has remained committed to Palmer diversified, auto and car injury treatment, case management, and Chiropractic Biophysics since that time.
Dr. Mioni has known his wife since he was eight years old and has been happily married to her for the last 25 years. He speaks Spanish and has three children—a son and two daughters. When they married 25 years ago, Dr. Mioni’s wife began her career at Southwest Airlines in order for Dr. Mioni to have flight benefits to fly home every weekend to see her and the children.
His son went to college on a wrestling scholarship and wrestled for the Olympic Training Center at Northern Michigan University. He is in the Navy now and currently training to be a Navy Seal (fingers crossed). His oldest daughter graduated from the University of Arizona and is also in the Navy, training to be a Nuclear Engineer. Their youngest daughter is going to ASU on an Academic Scholarship, having been accepted into the Barrett Honors College. She is studying Medicine.
Dr. Mioni is the baby in his family and is a first-generation United States Citizen. His parents came to the United States in the late 60s from Mexico City. In the early 70s, Dr. Mioni was born in Phoenix, Arizona.
Dr. Mioni has many hobbies, and his wife says he has all the stuff in their closet and garage to prove it. He earned a bronze medal in the Junior Olympics as a Marksman. He likes to ride ATVs and UTVs. He likes building remote controlled electric trucks and cars, flying kites, swimming, riding bikes, playing board games, corn hole, golf, and pinball machines. He enjoys racing cars, and scuba diving. He also loves movies. And yet, his main priority is—without a doubt—his family.
