As our population continues to grow and overall health declines due to poor eating habits or stress, the number of back pain patients may amplify considerably over the next decade. 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 lumbar spine.
Back Decompression with the DRX9000 offers patients relief from pain associated with the following conditions:
Disc Herniations
Known as the most common root source of mid back pain involved with a certain structural irregularity. Pain may come suddenly, but rarely does a herniated disk appear overnight.
Degenerative Disc Disease
DDD is a state of dehydration and deterioration manifested by the gradual erosion of the discs ability to dispense and resist mechanical loads. As discs weaken, they become more likely to injury from physical pressure. Degenerative disc disease may also play a important role in conditions such as disk bulges, disk herniations, and stenosis.
Sciatica
It is a condition often associated with a herniated or ruptured disk. When the injured disk 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 below the knee. Tingling and numbness are common in this condition. Sciatica can transpire abruptly, or develop gradually.
How does non-surgical back decompression alleviate pain associated with herniated discs and degenerative disc disease?
The theory behind non-surgical spine 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 a back pain patient could not be treated on the DRX9000™?
The DRX9000 cannot treat patients 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 you know is suffering from a herniated disk, bulging disk, degenerative disk disease or sciatica, simply ask you physician if you qualify for the DRX9000 therapy.
