Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression and Your Low Back Pain

without comments

Non-surgical decompression therapy aims to non-surgically relieve patients’ back and neck pain. The DRX9000 True Non-surgical Spinal Decompression System is designed to provide pain relief for compressive and degenerative injuries of the spine.

Non-surgical lumbar decompression therapy with the DRX9000 offers patients relief from pain involved with the following conditions:

Disc Herniations

 

  • Known as the most common root source of low back pain associated with a certain structural irregularity. Pain may come overnight, but rarely does a herniated disk appear overnight.
  •  

    Degenerative Disc Disease

     

  • DDD is a state of dehydration and deterioration marked by the steadyerosion of the discs ability to dispense and resist mechanical loads. As disks weaken, they become more likely to injury from physical stress. Degenerative disc disease may also play a large part in conditions such as disc bulges, disc herniations and stenosis.
  •  

    Sciatica

     

  • It is a condition often involved with a herniated or ruptured disk. When the injured disc restricts one of the spinal nerves leading to the sciatic nerve, it can generate a shock-like pain that moves through the buttocks and down one leg to below the knee. Tingling and numbness are common in this condition. Sciatica can arise abruptly, or develop slowly.
  •  

    How does non-surgical decompression therapy alleviate pain involved with herniated disks and degenerative disc disease?

    The theory behind non-surgical spine decompression is a process whereby forces are applied to the spine in a manner that maximizes spinal elongation. By enlarging intradiscal space, a disc herniation size may decrease.

    Are there any exclusions why a patient could not be treated on the DRX9000?

    The DRX9000 cannot help back pain sufferers with: compression fractures, pelvic or abdominal cancer, prior lumbar fusion, severe osteoporosis, spondylolisthesis (unstable), pars defect, Pathologic Aortic aneurysm, disc space infections, severe peripheral neuropathy, hemiplegia or cognitive dysfunction.

    If anyone you know is suffering from a herniated disk, bulging disk, degenerative disk disease or sciatica, simply ask you doctor if you qualify for the DRX9000 treatment.

    To learn more about non-surgical spine decompression therapy, please ask your physician if the DRX9000 is right for you.
