DRX9000 Spinal Decompression

DRX9000 Spinal Decompression
Posted by Dr. Ron Spallone on 24, June 2010 with 3 Comments

DRX9000 spinal decompression treatment for sciatica, back pain and herniated and bulging discs is quite simply a pain relieving, alternative treatment for patients who experience chronic back and leg pain or chronic neck and arm pain. The DRX9000 (which treats the lumbar spine for lower back conditions) and the DRX9000C (which treats the cervical spine for neck and arm pain) are forms of treatment referred to as “non-surgical spinal decompression therapy.” Spinal decompression therapy is an effective treatment option for the management of pain and disability for patients who are suffering from lower back pain, leg pain and/or sciatica and nerve or joint and soft tissue pain generated from the discs in the low back or neck. The application of treatment with the DRX9000 is designed to apply decompression forces to compressed and degenerative structures of the spine. Non-surgical spinal decompression treatment involves a series of rhythmic, intermittent and alternating stretching and relaxation cycles. The gentle forces are targeted to the injured spinal areas which aim to relieve the pain and symptoms associated with herniated discs, bulging discs, sciatica and facet syndromes (like facet arthritis). We offer this therapy in the Denver, Colorado metro area. DRX9000 spinal decompression is available at our Lakewood chiropractic clinic. Did you like this? Share it:Tweet Read More

Therapeutic laser for pain relief and tissue healing has become a ‘go-to’ alternative treatment modality for chronic pain syndromes in our chiropractic clinic in Lakewood. In fact, it’s hard to imagine practicing without it. I’ve used it with great success for the treatment of acute injuries such as recently sprained ankles, as well as chronic conditions like low back disc herniations and carpal tunnel syndrome. As a chiropractor and complimentary and alternative practitioner, I’m always to willing to research and? explore new natural healing methods. Nothing is stopping medical doctors from doing the same but it’s peculiar how many just don’t. So, while most of mainstream medicine remains on the sidelines, there are some practitioners of sports medicine, who are highly motivated to find new ways to heal soft-tissue injuries by using such treatments as laser therapy. Here’s an interesting story I found that flew under the radar regarding sports injuries and laser therapy… In the week before the Super Bowl, Boston based registered nurse Ellen Spicuzza treated more than 10 Patriot players with laser therapy for soft tissue injuries. “A couple of days prior to the Super Bowl weekend, I treated Patriot wide receiver David Givens, who had a ‘locked-up’ hamstring,” she said. She applied laser therapy over?the “belly” of his hamstring muscle for about five minutes, she said. “The laser released it.” Spicuzza, an independent nurse/physical therapist in Boston, usually treats Patriot players’ injuries with medical massage. For the Super Bowl, she, for the first time, used... Read More
