Herniated disc, bulging disc, or sciatica that won't quit? Dr. Gregory Mayfield offers computer-controlled spinal decompression at our Royal Ave office — a gentle, FDA-cleared therapy that creates negative pressure inside the disc and lets your body heal from the inside out.

Our Monroe office sits on Royal Ave, minutes from West Monroe, ULM, and the medical district — with a second Mayfield location in Shreveport if you're ever out west.

A former police officer who responded to wrecks on these same Twin Cities roads, Dr. Mayfield has spent 31+ years helping Northeast Louisiana move without pain — and is qualified as an expert witness in motor-vehicle-accident cases.
The physical demands of Monroe and West Monroe life — from Graphic Packaging shifts and oilfield work to I-20 accidents and ULM athletics — compress and degrade discs over time. Spinal decompression reverses that compression without drugs or surgery, restoring disc height and nutrient flow so the tissue can repair itself.

From ULM students and Warhawk athletes to Graphic Packaging and hospital shift workers to anyone rear-ended on I-20 or US-165 — we know the loads, the hours, and the injuries Northeast Louisiana lives with.
Desk strain, backpack shoulders, and athletic injuries from a campus full of bodies in motion — care that works around class and practice.
Graphic Packaging, the hospitals, oilfield, and the trades wear on a spine. We schedule around real Monroe and West Monroe shifts.
Two of the busiest roads in NELA cross right here. We treat whiplash & disc injuries and handle the insurance and attorney side.

Spinal decompression at our Monroe Royal Ave office treats herniated and bulging discs, degenerative disc disease, sciatica caused by disc compression, spinal stenosis, and facet syndrome. It is a non-surgical, computer-controlled therapy that gently stretches the spine to create negative pressure inside the disc, allowing damaged material to retract and relieving nerve compression.
No — spinal decompression is gentle and non-invasive. Most Monroe patients describe it as a slow, rhythmic stretching sensation; many find it relaxing enough to fall asleep. You lie comfortably on the treatment table while the computer-controlled system applies precise, intermittent traction. Each session lasts approximately 20 to 30 minutes.
A typical treatment plan at our Monroe office involves 15 to 20 sessions over four to six weeks, though the exact number depends on your diagnosis and response to treatment. Many Ouachita Parish patients notice meaningful relief within the first four to six sessions. Dr. Mayfield reviews your progress at each visit and adjusts the plan accordingly. Call (318) 323-7246 or visit 1400 Royal Ave for an evaluation.
Coverage varies by plan. Some major insurers including Blue Cross Blue Shield and Aetna cover spinal decompression as part of chiropractic care; others may require pre-authorization. Auto insurance typically covers decompression for I-20 or US-165 accident injuries — often with no upfront cost to you while your claim is pending. Our Monroe staff at 1400 Royal Ave verifies your benefits before treatment begins. Call (318) 323-7246 with any questions.
