Spinal Decompression - Axiom DRX9000
Filed Under Back Pain Relief | 2 Comments
Here’s news about one of the most advanced, non-surgical treatments for lower back and neck pain associated with herniated and degenerative disc.
The product is the Axiom DRX 9000C which is is the first non-surgical decompression system cleared by the FDA for cervical decompression. The DRX9000C relieves back pain by:
- enlarging disc space,
- reducing herniation,
- strengthening outer ligaments to help move herniated areas back into place
- reversing high intra-disc pressures through the application of negative pressure.
Treatment results published in the American Journal of Pain Management suggest a success rate of over 80%Â with patients who suffer from lower back pain. Clinical studies have shown a better than 72% success rate in treating neck pain due to herniated, bulging or degenerative disc disease using the DRX 9000C after only four to six weeks of treatment.
Pre and Post treatment MRI’s have shown greater than 50% reduction in size and extent of herniations after 4 weeks of treatment with the DRX 9000C.Â
How Non-surgical Spinal Decompression Works:Â
The technique originated when NASA found that during the weightless portion of space missions, astronauts were relieved of low back pain. It also found that disc height actually increased during missions. NASA then investigated the effects of space travel’s on spinal decompression which led to the development of advanced technology to reproduce the effects on earth.Â
By decompressing the lumbar and cervical discs pressure is relieved on the spinal nerves that is often caused by disc herniations, degenerative disease, sciatica or posterior facet syndrome.Â
