DRX 9000c. Cervical Spinal Decompression

Posted Jun 02 2009 4:34pm

San Francisco Chiropractor and Disc Herniation Specialist incorporates Cervical Spinal Decompression into Nonsurgical  Treatment Regimen.

Md_news_photos_010 Spinal Disc Herniations in the neck can be difficult to treat. And the surgeries are more invasive than they are in the lumbar spine, where disc bulges and herniations are more common. I read somewhere recently that lumbar disc herniations are 7x more common than cervical herniations.

Anyway, cervical spinal decompression with the DRX9000c can help in many situations. Some doctors such as myself, incorporate decompression therapy into their overall treatment regimen. In my case this includes, spinal adjustments, extremity adjustments, cold laser therapy, myofascial release, meditation, yoga, nutrition, core strengthening, massage, and ergonomics. Not all patients do every single thing. And when they do, it's all about timing. We don't want to rush things. We want to strip down the old, and build up the new. Like Urban Renewal.  Some patients can barely move their neck and have already tried just about everything under the sun for their chronic neck pain and disc problems. So, with these patients we will focus on spinal decompression therapy with the DRX9000c until we can get some pain relief and a little bit more motion in the neck. Then we will slowly add other therapies as indicated.
