DRX9000® decompression treatment
The DRX9000® True Non-surgical spinal decompression® treatment for back pain has been designed to aid healthcare providers in their efforts in treating low back (lumbar) pain. DRX9000® and DRX9000C® treatments provide relief to patients suffering from chronic back pain or neck pain. The DRX9000® spinal decompression machine has been cleared by the FDA to treat herniated discs, bulging discs, degenerative disc disease, and posterior facet syndrome. The DRX9000® is the only system available in its field to utilize a servo motor; in doing so, the DRX9000® contains nested closed-loop feedback that ensures that the therapy stays true to each patient’s logarithmic spinal decompression treatment.
How DRX9000® decompression machine treatment works
DRX9000® system works on the injuries that happen due to nerve compression by applying equal amount of pressure on the vertebrate columns, by stretching the spine, this creates a gap in between the discs, and with improved flow of nutrients through both the vertebrate columns of spine the injuries heal slowly and steadily after regular DRX9000® decompression treatment sessions, as suggested by your doctor. Many patients are living better and happier lives.
DRX9000® Spinal Decompression Machine Treatment FAQ
How long does it take to see results after non surgical spinal decompression DRX9000® treatment?
You may begin to feel relief from chronic pain within the first few sessions, as pressure on the compressed nerve is reduced while your spine is in a decompressed state. After treatment, you may experience some initial soreness in your back as muscles are stretched in ways they may not be used to. We highly recommend using the DRX9000® brace/distractor belt with the hot/cold gel insert throughout the entire treatment period to help support your back and improve comfort.
Is non-surgical spinal decompression DRX9000® treatment successful?
In published clinical studies, nearly 9 out of 10 patients benefit from the DRX9000® machine treatment. In one particular published study, conducted by medical doctors associated with the University of California, Stanford, Johns Hopkins, and Georgetown, the DRX9000® helped reduce back pain with a correlation in increasing disc height.
