Built on a Proven Clinical Foundation: The DRX9000-SL represents the evolution of the DRX9000 platform, incorporating years of physician feedback, engineering refinement and published clinical research into Excite Medical’s most advanced spinal decompression table.

Unlike many new technologies introduced without meaningful clinical evidence, the DRX9000-SL was developed from a platform that has been the subject of multiple published clinical investigations evaluating non-surgical spinal decompression for patients suffering from chronic low back pain, herniated discs, degenerative disc disease and sciatica.

One of the most recent publications, published in Military Medicine, evaluated 267 patients treated at seven clinics using non-surgical spinal decompression. Researchers from the University of South Florida Department of Neurosurgery and Brain Repair reported statistically significant improvements in pain, neurological function and activities of daily living. The study found that 90.5% of patients experienced pain reduction, with average pain scores decreasing from 6.9 to 2.5. Significant improvements were also reported in reflexes, muscle strength, sensation and activities of daily living. The authors concluded that non-surgical spinal decompression is an effective conservative treatment option for patients suffering from chronic low back pain.

This latest publication adds to an expanding body of published research surrounding the DRX9000 platform. Earlier clinical research conducted by researchers from Stanford University and Johns Hopkins University, and published in Pain Practice, evaluated 94 patients with chronic discogenic low back pain treated with the DRX9000. Investigators reported a significant reduction in average pain scores from 6.05 to 0.89, along with improvements in activities of daily living, reduced analgesic use and high patient satisfaction following treatment.

“The DRX9000-SL was never created simply to replace the DRX9000,” said Mr Musallam. “It was created to build upon nearly three decades of innovation in non-surgical spinal decompression. Every advancement incorporated into the DRX9000-SL reflects what we’ve learned from thousands of physicians, continuous engineering innovation and a growing body of published clinical research.” Saleem Musallam holds a Master’s degree in Healthcare Systems Engineering from Johns Hopkins University and serves as an Adjunct Professor of Medical Engineering at the University of South Florida.

Kousoulis Chiropractic Introduces DRX9000® Supported by Published USF MRI Study of Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression

Jenn Perez — Wed, 05 Aug 2026 20:32:10 +0000

Brentwood, Los Angeles practice expands spine care with FDA-cleared DRX9000®, supported by published USF MRI research on non-surgical spinal decompression.

LOS ANGELES, CA, UNITED STATES, July 31, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Kousoulis Chiropractic today announced the addition of the DRX9000^® Lumbar Spinal Decompression System, an FDA-cleared, computer-controlled non-surgical spinal decompression technology designed for patients suffering from chronic low back pain, sciatica, herniated discs, bulging discs, degenerative disc disease, lumbar spinal stenosis, lumbar radiculopathy, pinched nerves, and other lumbar spine disorders.

The addition of the DRX9000 reflects Dr. Nick Kousoulis’ commitment to providing patients with advanced conservative treatment options before more invasive procedures, including spinal injections or lumbar fusion surgery, are considered when clinically appropriate.

“Every patient deserves to understand every appropriate treatment option before considering surgery,” said Dr. Nick Kousoulis, founder of Kousoulis Chiropractic. “The DRX9000 stood out because it combines sophisticated computer-controlled technology with an expanding body of published university research. Our goal is to provide patients with evidence-informed, conservative care that helps them reduce pain, restore function, and return to the activities they enjoy.”

A Growing Need for Conservative Spine Care: Low back pain remains one of the leading causes of disability worldwide and affects millions of Americans every year. Many patients struggle with chronic pain caused by herniated discs, bulging discs, degenerative disc disease, lumbar spinal stenosis, sciatica, and lumbar radiculopathy after months—or even years—of medications, physical therapy, injections, or other conservative treatments.

Patients seeking care at Kousoulis Chiropractic commonly present with symptoms including:

Chronic low back pain
Sciatica
Herniated and bulging lumbar discs
Pain radiating into the buttock or leg
Numbness or tingling in the leg or foot
Weakness
Difficulty standing or walking
Pain while sitting
Reduced mobility
Persistent symptoms despite previous conservative treatment

Every patient at Kousoulis Chiropractic undergoes a comprehensive examination to determine the underlying cause of their symptoms before an individualized treatment plan is recommended.

Published DRX9000 Clinical Research continues to strengthen the evidence supporting non-surgical spinal decompression by demonstrating not only improvements in pain and function, but also objective anatomical changes measured using advanced MRI.

Researchers from the University of South Florida recently published one of the most comprehensive clinical imaging evaluations of non-surgical spinal decompression to date in the peer-reviewed Journal of Contemporary Chiropractic.

The published study evaluated patients with chronic lumbar disc disorders who were treated using the DRX9000^® Lumbar Spinal Decompression System. Researchers performed pre-treatment and post-treatment MRI examinations that were independently interpreted by two experienced radiologists before evaluating both clinical outcomes and objective anatomical changes following treatment.

Following twenty DRX9000 treatment sessions, investigators reported:

92% of patients remained symptom-free at follow-up, with only one patient experiencing a recurrence after eight months that improved following an additional course of treatment
80% median reduction in patient pain
50% median improvement in disability
75% median improvement in activities of daily living
Significant increases in lumbar disc height measured on MRI
Significant increases in spinal canal dimensions measured on MRI

Researchers concluded that non-surgical spinal decompression produced good-to-excellent clinical outcomes while demonstrating measurable anatomical improvements visible on advanced medical imaging.

More Than Three Decades of Scientific Investigation: One particularly noteworthy aspect of the University of South Florida study is the participation of Dr. William R. Martin, one of the independent radiologists responsible for reviewing each patient’s MRI before and after treatment.

Dr. Martin has contributed to spinal decompression research for more than three decades. In 1994, he co-authored the landmark Journal of Neurosurgery study that directly measured intradiscal pressure during computer-controlled spinal decompression. That pioneering research demonstrated that a computer-controlled logarithmic decompression profile could generate negative intradiscal pressure within the lumbar intervertebral disc, helping establish one of the biomechanical foundations behind modern spinal decompression therapy.

More than thirty years later, Dr. Martin served as an independent MRI reviewer for the University of South Florida study, objectively evaluating anatomical changes following treatment. His participation creates a unique connection between one of the earliest landmark investigations into spinal decompression biomechanics and one of the newest published university imaging studies evaluating objective clinical and imaging outcomes.

Continuing University Research: Building upon these published findings, the University of South Florida continues expanding its research through the ongoing RESTORE Trial (Research on Effectiveness of Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression Therapy and Outcomes with Radiographic Evaluation).
The prospective randomized clinical study incorporates advanced MRI imaging, biomechanics, neurological testing, muscle analysis, spinal stiffness measurements, and patient-reported outcome measures to further evaluate which patients may benefit most from non-surgical spinal decompression therapy.

Excite Medical’s Bi-Annual Decompression Mastermind

Jenn Perez — Thu, 31 Oct 2024 13:32:18 +0000

Top experts gather to explore innovations in DRX9000 technology, spinal decompression, and regenerative medicine at Excite Medical’s premier educational event.

ORLANDO, FL, UNITED STATES, October 28, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ — Excite Medical, the company behind the DRX9000, recently hosted its Bi-Annual Decompression Mastermind from October 18th to 20th at the Marriott Orlando Airport Lakeside, attracting top medical professionals to explore advancements in spinal decompression, radiology, regenerative medicine, and other healthcare fields. This premier event also offered attendees continuing education credits in select approved states.

Among the many impactful presentations, Amanda Gabro, BS, a chiropractic student at the National University of Health Sciences in Florida, shared a compelling case study on cervical disc herniation recently presented at the American Chiropractic Association. Her case study featured a 35-year-old female patient diagnosed with a C5/C6 disc extrusion (posterior lateral) who was treated on the DRX9000 Cervical spinal decompression machine at the University of South Florida. The results were impressive, showing a 2 mm reduction in herniation size after just 20 sessions.

I chose the DRX9000 spinal decompression machine because it utilizes the logarithmic curve pull as the VAX-D machine used in my study.”

— William R. Martin, MD

A highlight of the Mastermind was a lecture by Dr. William Martin, MD, a Stanford-educated radiologist with over 30 years of experience in interventional radiology. Dr. Martin, considered a legend and pioneer in non-surgical spinal decompression, shared his extensive knowledge on using non-surgical decompression to address complex disc pathologies. His groundbreaking study, published in the Journal of Neurosurgery, was the first to demonstrate that the internal disc pressure could be reduced by over 200 mmHg non-surgically through non-surgical spinal decompression. This pioneering research, now with over 200 citations, set the foundation for current decompression technology, inspiring advancements in non-invasive treatment options for spinal conditions. Dr. Martin’s study can be accessed here.

Reflecting on his commitment to spinal decompression, Dr. Martin said, “I left hospital work to move into private practice primarily to provide non-surgical spinal decompression to the public. I chose the DRX9000 spinal decompression machine because it utilizes the logarithmic curve pull as the VAX-D machine used in my study. Not only does the DRX9000 pull using the logarithmic curve, but it also places the patient in a comfortable supine position. Additionally, both the DRX9000 Lumbar and DRX9000 Cervical models can target specific disc levels with their advanced tower systems and precise technologies.”

Dr. Sunny Kim, MD, FAAPMR, a specialist in pain management and regenerative medicine, contributed to the event by discussing innovative approaches that combine regenerative medicine with spinal decompression. Dr. Kim explained, “Integrating regenerative medicine with the DRX9000 spinal decompression system opens new possibilities for non-invasive, patient-centered care. By enhancing the body’s natural healing potential, we aim to deliver improved, long-term outcomes for patients suffering from chronic back pain.”

The Decompression Mastermind fostered an environment of education, networking, and collaboration among healthcare providers. Other highlights included Dr. Terry R. Yochum, DC, DACBR, FACCR’s detailed MRI review session and Dr. Robert D. Jackson, DC’s lecture on adjustment techniques to complement spinal decompression therapy. Mr. Saleem Musallam, CEO of Excite Medical, also announced the launch of the American Spinal Decompression Society, which aims to advance non-surgical spinal decompression across the profession.

Their firsthand experiences and professional insights offered invaluable guidance to the chiropractors in attendance. Dr. Nathan Schilaty, DC, PhD shared recent research findings from USF’s Department of Neurosurgery, where the DRX9000 and DRX9000C are used in conservative care.
