Spinal Decompression is a fantastic treatment option for helping relieve back pain or other issues. This treatment involves the use of a spinal decompression table to help relieve pressure on the spine. Spinal decompression works by gently stretching the spine, which helps to take pressure off of the discs and nerves which may help alleviate pain from many different issues.
This treatment is often used to help treat herniated discs, protruding disc, sciatica, spinal stenosis, and other forms of back pain. Depending on your specific case, we recommend doing a series of sessions with a combination of other forms of chiropractic treatment.

Decompression Therapy in the Tampa Area
Spinal Decompression Therapy is a non-invasive treatment that may help provide relief on the pressure on your discs that sit between your vertebrae. By releasing this pressure, it can help quickly alleviate pain for many different symptoms. Depending on your health concerns, our Chiropractors in Tampa may recommend Spinal Decompression as part of your treatment plan.
Nonsurgical Spinal Decompression is a treatment option that helps gently stretch the spine. This helps to take pressure off of the discs and nerves in your back. During a Spinal Decompression treatment, you’ll lay on a special motorized table. The top half of the table remains fixed while the bottom half of the table slowly moves and is controlled by an advanced computer system.
Dr. Robert Calhoun fits you with a harness around your pelvis and another around your trunk. You’ll be positioned either face-up or face-down on the table, which is computer controlled to help gently stretch and decompress your spine. Dr. Robert Calhoun controls the table using the connected computer, customizing the treatment to your specific needs.
As your spine is stretched it takes pressure off the spinal discs, which are gel-like cushions between the bones in your spine, by creating negative pressure in the disc. That negative space gives herniated and bulging discs space where they may retract. This helps take pressure off nerves and other structures in your spine and ultimately leads to less pain and discomfort. This can also help increase the movement of other nutrient-rich fluids, water, and oxygen into the discs to promote healing.
What Does Spinal Decompression Treat?
Spinal Decompression can be an extremely beneficial treatment option for a variety of reasons, including:
When the disc between your body and spine is hurt, it’s called a herniated disc. It can be hard to move because the pain makes you want to stay still. When you have a herniated disc, it is important to rest and take care of yourself until the pain goes away.
Bulging Discs
A bulging disc is a disc that has been injured and is protruding out from its normal position. This can cause pain, numbness, and tingling in the affected area.
Degenerative disc disease is a condition that affects the discs in your spine. The discs can become weak and thin over time, which can lead to pain and other problems.
Sciatica is when there is a pain in your lower back that sometimes extends down you buttocks and legs. Sometimes this can happen when a person has a herniated disc, bulging discs, or degenerative disc disease.
Spinal Stenosis
Spinal stenosis is a condition that happens when the spinal column becomes narrower. This can cause problems like pain, numbness, and tingling.
Does Spinal Decompression Hurt?
Spinal Decompression Therapy is generally a gentle and soothing treatment that is typically painless in most cases. Some patients with significant disc damage may experience minor discomfort during their first few treatments.
How Many Sessions Will I Need?
The number of sessions you will need will depend on your individual condition. In some cases, you may only need a few sessions to see results. However, in other cases, you may need to undergo spinal decompression therapy for several weeks or months. Dr. Robert Calhoun will work with you to build a treatment plan for your specific needs.

I had such a good experience at Spartan Chiropractic! Everyone there is so friendly, especially Victoria who helped me a lot! Everyone is so welcoming and professional!
I cannot recommend Spartan Chiropractic and Dr. Bobby enough! As a former D1 athlete with herniated discs, I’ve dealt with my fair share of injuries and have had access to countless facilities, treatments, and providers over the years. I’ve also had a bad experience with a chiropractor in the past, so I was honestly very skeptical and nervous about ever being adjusted again.
From the beginning, Dr. Bobby took the time to talk through my previous injuries, what I had been experiencing, and the treatments I had already tried. I never felt rushed or pressured into anything, which immediately made me feel more comfortable.
I came in after experiencing a severe neck spasm for several days with extreme pain and little to no range of motion. I tried spinal decompression for the first time, and the difference was incredible. My pain went from about a 9/10 to a 3/10 immediately after the treatment, and I was able to regain full range of motion in my neck. After being in so much pain, the relief was honestly amazing.
Dr. Bobby and Sam are both incredibly kind, respectful, and welcoming, and the office itself is clean, comfortable, and very well put together. I especially recommend Spartan Chiropractic to current or former athletes who miss having regular access to the type of treatment and recovery resources you had while competing. It feels like having that kind of support again.
Highly recommend Dr. Bobby and the entire Spartan Chiropractic team!
It was my initial consultation. I was welcomed by Samantha with a warm genuine smile and given a tour of their impressive facility. Dr Bobby was great and used some high-tech computer imaging to help me understand the issues I was having. Everyone was first class.
Had chronic pain in my hamstring and they were able to fix the issue within four sessions. It was also a great deal, even though they were out of network they offered me a four session package that ended up being less than the co-pay I was paying at the previous place that I went that took my insurance.
WOW, what a great office and very friendly. Dr. Bobby was wonderfully kind to me. I dropped in while on vacation and I had very little wait and I enjoyed his adjustment technique. He worked and fixed me. Samantha was efficient and so kind.
10 stars! First impressions are a big deal for me and Dr. Calhoun’s team goes above and beyond when it comes to making you feel comfortable. This level of customer service is a rare thing. Samantha and Victoria are so welcoming and the entire operation is quality from start to finish. Highly recommend!
I would recommend this place to anyone who asks. The Dr. and Sam are awesome people to work with. Very efficient and will help and explain anything you have questions about!
Long overdue review! I trust Bobby with all of my and my family’s chiropractic needs. He is incredibly knowledgeable and intentional in his approach, takes the time to listen thoroughly to all concerns, and explains everything clearly so you feel confident in your care. I always leave feeling 1000% better than when I walked in. The front desk staff is also very helpful and friendly, which is always appreciated :)
I’ve been seeing Dr.Bobby on and off for about 4 years. I have a very physically demanding line of work and he keeps me moving. He’s amazing at listening to the issue at hand and handling his patients with the utmost care, with top of the line equipment. If you are in the Tampa Bay Area and are looking for a chiro, Dr.Bobby is well worth giving a shot!
I had an outstanding experience at the chiropractic office. The staff was friendly patient and extremely helpful from the moment I walked in. Dr Bobby was professional ,upbeat and took the time to explain everything clearly while giving me thoughtful options for care .I felt fully informed and confident in the treatment decisions,.The entire visit was positive, efficient reassuring. I highly recommend! The first visit was complementary – showing real confidence in the quality of care and gives patients a chance to understand the approach before committing.
Dr. Bobby and the team at Spartan Chiropractor deliver exceptional care in a top-notch facility. I suffered from a neck injury in a car accident years ago and now I get adjusted there weekly. I especially value the recovery tools like the infrared sauna and cold plunge, they’ve made a real difference. The private gym is state-of-the-art and perfect for my focused workouts. The staff are knowledgeable, welcoming, and always me laugh. Highly recommend for anyone in Tampa serious about their health and recovery.
I went into Spartan Chiropractic a few weeks ago with a sports related injury in my lower back to see if I could find any sort of relief because no matter how much stretching I did the pain was still there. I was having a ton of pain each time I swung but I now have none. Not only do I not have pain while swinging, I have much more flexibility in my back and shoulders allowing me to have better posture and mobility. Highly recommend checking them out.
Spartan Chiropractic is the definition of a well-oiled machine. The staff is extremely kind and helpful, and Dr. Bobby is very knowledgeable. Whether it is just an average adjustment or a serious issue, he takes improving your health very seriously. I recommend Spartan Chiropractic for anyone looking for the best chiropractor in Tampa.
Can’t say enough good things about Spartan Chiropractic. They are professional and kind. The sauna and cold plunge area is private, clean and therapeutic. It’s become an integral part of my wellness protocol.
This was the best Chiropractic experience I’ve ever had! From the moment you walk in, the staff is so nice and welcoming, the office is clean and offers a lot more than any other chiro I’ve been to. It’s kind of a body-wellness one stop shop. Dr. Calhoun is knowledgeable and thorough, and was able to alleviate shoulder tightness and neck pain in my first 2 visits with a combination of muscle work, cupping and dry needling, . In months of going elsewhere, my upper back has NEVER cracked like that. I don’t know what magic touch he possesses, but I will be going back weekly. Highly recommend.
I love his office space, and the location! Also, how easy it is to schedule online! Dr. Bobby is personable, and made me feel comfortable during my appointment!! He knew exactly how to help me. I felt amazing walking out of my appointment!! 10/10

Thank you so much for the adjustment! It's the day after the por osos 5k (running on pavement wrecks me) and I feel fantastic. I'm giving Spartan Chiropractic all the credit for my recovery.

I am very picky when it comes to anyone in this field and from the moment I met him I knew he was the guy to go to. I can confidently say Dr Bobby shows incredible knowledge, professionalism, and is a top tier chiropractor in the area. As someone who works on professional and all types of athletes, I look for a certain type of care and he certainly goes above and beyond. I recommend him to everyone I know, and now to you.<br><br>PS. Once you go into that office, you won’t want to leave!
By far the best Chiropractor in Tampa Bay Area! As an athlete it’s hard to find a chiropractor that will find a solution and treatment while keeping you safe in your sport! Dr. Bobby does that he listens and understands! He’s great! Also, who wouldn’t want a fire and ice area IN your doctors office?

Whether you’re an athlete, a parent, or just someone who values their health, Spartan Chiropractic is the best place to be in Tampa. Highly recommend!
I cannot explain the relief I feel after coming in to see Dr. Bobby! I went in with terrible pain in my upper back and rib area which made it hurt to breathe and really move at all! It’s only two days later after we did an adjustment and some muscle work, I couldn’t recommend a better place or chiropractor!!
I can't speak highly enough about my experience at Spartan Chiropractic. From the moment I walked into the office, it was clear that Dr. Bobby is not only highly knowledgeable but also very compassionate. He took the time to listen to my concerns, complete a full evaluation of my hip that was bothering me, and explained my treatment plan in a way that was easy to understand. Dr. Bobby combines expertise with empathy and is absolutely someone I would highly recommend if you are looking for a chiropractor in the Tampa area!
Dr. Calhoun is the best chiropractor in Tampa. The location of the office is conducive being right across from The University of Tampa near downtown. His office incorporates cold plunge, sauna, decompression room, adjustment/cupping room, and fitness center which I have never seen anywhere else! Very down to earth guy that genuinely cares about their patients and wants them to feel better.
I came to Dr. Bobby with tons of lower back pain from sitting in a chair all day. He took the time to analyze my situation and was very knowledgeable with specific solutions. I felt a lot better after my visit. Best chiropractor in town! I’ll definitely be coming back
