The Back Pain, Neck Pain, & Headache Relief Center utilizes a breakthrough non-surgical and non-invasive technology known across the world as the DRX 9000 Lumbar Decompression Therapy. The DRX 9000 was developed by Axiom Worldwide and a specialized team of physicians and medical engineers, for the treatment of low back and disc-related sciatic pain. The DRX9000™ it is not your grandfather's traction! Or the same as hanging upside down or perhaps other devices you may have tried in the past.
The DRX9000™ is also different from other decompression technologies. On the DRX9000™ the patient always lays face up with the knees bent with support rests underneath the shoulders. You do not grip onto anything with your hands during the treatments, which can be tiring for some patients. With the DRX9000™ the angle of decompression can be adjusted to affect different lumbar levels in your lower spine.
What is the theory behind decompression? How does it work?
An experimental study has shown that in non-degenerated, but bulging discs (something your MRI or CT scan would show), decompression can lower the pressure inside the disc. This negative pressure may then draw or suck the displaced disc material more towards the center of the disc and away from your nerves. For many patients this can mean pain relief because a compressed nerve is a painful nerve. If the pressure on the nerve is released, it can begin to heal. The DRX9000™ is designed to assist the body's natural tendency to heal itself because Mother Nature sometimes needs a little help. If the disc can be moved even a small amount away from the nerve, this can be enough to decrease inflammation and irritation. We need more studies to fully understand why patients can improve when they receive this type of treatment and which types of disc problems respond the most.

Your disc must be damaged for the DRX9000™ treatment to be indicated.
Right now, I don't even know if you're a good candidate for the DRX9000. If you have severe osteoporosis, this treatment should not be used. Other patients may have rare problems, such as cancer, that is causing the back and leg pain. These rare diseases have to be ruled out before undergoing the DRX- 9000™ treatment. Pregnant women are also not good candidates for decompression because they will have laxity of their ligaments in the third trimester. The only way I can know if you're a good candidate is do…

“The treatment works and the encouragement you receive from the doctors is helpful and gives you hope. The doctors tell you specifically what will help you and it does. I came in for the treatment when it became too painful to walk or sleep at night. I was bent over all the time. I thought I would never improve. After the DRX 9000 treatments I walk a lot and can sleep with only occasional twinges of pain – nothing like before. Mentally I feel better too. The treatments are very relaxing. Prior to coming for treatment I tried physical therapy which helped some but not enough and years of chiropractic treatment. If you are thinking of making an appointment, I would recommend that you do it.”
