Spinal Decompression featuring DRX9000
What is Spinal Decompression Therapy?
Spinal decompression therapy is a gentle, computer-controlled treatment that involves stretching the spine to relieve pressure on compressed discs and nerves. The DRX9000 system creates negative pressure within the spinal discs, allowing bulging or herniated discs to retract and take pressure off nerves and other structures in the spine. This process enhances blood flow, delivering essential nutrients to promote healing and reduce inflammation.
Conditions Treated with Spinal Decompression
Spinal decompression therapy is ideal for patients dealing with a variety of spine-related conditions, including:
- Herniated or Bulging Discs: Helps to reduce the size of disc bulges and relieve associated pain.
- Degenerative Disc Disease: Slows the degenerative process and promotes disc healing.
- Sciatica: Alleviates pressure on the sciatic nerve, reducing pain and discomfort radiating down the leg.
- Spinal Stenosis: Reduces pressure on the spinal canal, relieving back and leg pain.
- Facet Syndrome: Decompresses the spinal joints, reducing inflammation and pain.
- Chronic Lower Back or Neck Pain: Provides long-term relief for patients with persistent spine-related pain.
How Does DRX9000 Spinal Decompression Work?
The DRX9000™ spinal decompression system uses advanced technology to apply precise and controlled traction to the spine. This traction creates a decompression effect in the spine, which encourages the retraction of herniated or bulging discs and improves the flow of fluids, oxygen, and nutrients into the affected areas to stimulate healing.
Here’s what to expect during the treatment:
- Initial Consultation: Our specialists will assess your condition through physical examination and diagnostic imaging, such as X-rays or MRI, to determine if spinal decompression is the right option for you.
- Custom Treatment Program: The DRX9000 system tailors each session to your specific condition, adjusting the level of decompression to target the affected area of the spine.
- Comfortable Treatment Sessions: During the procedure, you will lie comfortably on a motorized table, where a harness will be fitted around your pelvis or lower back. The DRX9000 will gently stretch the spine, relieving pressure on the discs and nerves. Treatment sessions typically last between 25 to 45 minutes.
- Painless and Relaxing: Most patients find the treatment comfortable and relaxing, often experiencing significant relief after just a few sessions. The number of sessions needed will vary based on your condition and individual response to treatment.
Benefits of Spinal Decompression with DRX9000
- Non-Surgical Solution: Spinal decompression therapy offers an alternative to invasive spinal surgery for many conditions, helping you avoid long recovery times and surgical risks.
- Pain Relief: Patients typically experience reduced pain and improved function after several sessions, making it an effective treatment for chronic back or neck pain.
- Safe and Comfortable: The DRX9000 provides a controlled and gentle approach to spinal decompression, ensuring patient comfort during treatment.
- Promotes Healing: By increasing blood flow and nutrient exchange in the affected area, spinal decompression helps repair damaged discs and tissues, promoting long-term recovery.
- Improves Mobility: Decompression reduces nerve impingement and inflammation, allowing you to move more freely and return to daily activities with less pain.
- Minimally Invasive: No incisions, injections, or medications are required, making it a safe and low-risk treatment option for many patients.
