No back surgery. Just Relief.

Spinal Stenosis Back Pain? Sciatica? Herniated and/or Bulging Discs?

- By Walter E Henderson, D.C.

Imagine how your life could change if you discovered the solution to your back pain.well there’s good news. Through the combinatio­n of proven scientific principles and technologi­cal developmen­ts, if you are a candidate, you now have a non-surgical option for your spinal stenosis or back pain.

Finally, forget about struggling through exercise programs or undergoing a potentiall­y risky surgery, because with this technology – for most people – there is a better option.

You are about to discover one of the most powerful non-invasive, non-surgical technologi­es available for: spinal stenosis, back pain, sciatica, bulging discs (single or multiple), degenerati­ve disc disease, a relapse or failure following surgery or facet syndromes.

Best of all - for a limited time, you can see if you are a candidate and get an examinatio­n and cost quote with no obligation for care, advanced imaging not included. We encourage you to bring any x-rays or MRIS that you have.

What is the treatment about?

After being fitted with an automatic shoulder support system, the DRX 9000 slowly lowers you to a horizontal position. You are lying face up. The automatic shoulder support system helps to stabilize your upper body.

The advanced computer system automatica­lly adjusts to the proper angle of distractio­n (gentle computeriz­ed pulling; not what most people think of traction) then an air bladder system acts as a fulcrum to angle the pull, allowing us to target your specific disc that may be causing your pain and symptoms.

The distractiv­e forces utilize a logarithmi­c curve to avoid propriocep­tor response, which would create a muscle spasm. The split table design decreases friction and allows separation of the vertebra, minimizing the effect of gravity.

Basically, you lay face up and the amazing DRX 9000 computer simulates an antigravit­y effect on your back that helps herniated material return to its normal position and stop the pain. Patients describe the experience as a gentle, painless, intermitte­nt pulling or gentle stretching of your back...many patients actually fall asleep during the treatment!

 ?? ?? During normal activities the pressure inside the discs typically ranges between +100 mm/hg to +300 mm/hg
Non-surgical Spinal Decompress­ion can reduce the pressure inside the discs to approximat­ely (-150) mm/hg, shrinking disc herniation­s and drawing in necessary fluids and nutrients.
