Non-Surgical Decompression Therapy and Your Back Pain

August 30, 2009 by · 15 Comments 

Non-surgical decompression therapy aims to non-surgically relieve patients’ back and neck pain. The DRX9000 True Non-surgical Spinal Decompression System aims 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

 

  • Considered the most common root source of mid back pain involved with a certain structural irregularity. Pain may come rapidly, but seldom does a herniated disk appear overnight.
  •  

    Degenerative Disc Disease

     

  • DDD is a state of dehydration and deterioration manifested by the gradualerosion of the discs ability to distribute and resist mechanical loads. As discs deteriorate, they become more prone to injury from physical trauma. Degenerative disc disease may also play a contributing role in conditions such as disk bulges, disk herniations and stenosis.
  •  

    Sciatica

     

  • It is a condition often associated with a herniated or ruptured disc. When the injured disc restricts one of the spinal nerves leading to the sciatic nerve, it can construct a shock-like pain that travels through the buttocks and down one leg to under the knee. Tingling and numbness are familiar in this condition. Sciatica can transpire rapidly, or develop slowly.

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

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

    Are there any exclusions why someone could not be helped with the DRX9000?

    The DRX9000 will not 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 disc, bulging disc, degenerative disc disease or sciatica, simply ask you doctor if you qualify for the DRX9000 treatment.
