Your spine goes through a lot over the course of your life. Thanks to aging, stress, and various lifestyle factors your spinal discs will start to degenerate. While this is a normal process, it can result in a herniated disc. The discs in your spine are made up of a soft material surrounded by a harder shell. A herniated or ruptured disc happens with that some of that soft inner material pushes out through cracks in the exterior casing. A herniated disc can push on the nearby nerves in your spine and cause severe pain or numbness in the extremities.
If you’ve been suffering from herniated discs, our DRX9000 spinal decompression machine can help. This machine slowly lengthens and decompresses your spine. This relieves pressure on the discs and help re-position them so they aren’t pinching surrounding nerves, as well as pulling in the material that has escaped. The sessions are painless, and many of our patients experience relief in the form of pain reduction and healing in just a few treatments. This treatment can also help with sciatica, degenerative discs, and post surgical maintenance to keep your spine healthy. This is one of the ways we’re utilizing advanced technology to help our patients experience relief.
