Why NFL Players should all do non-surgical spinal decompression

Obviously, professional football (NFL) is a brutal sport...which is why the average player only plays for 3.5 years. And, in addition, when a player is done playing...whether it be by injury or by choice, or because somebody better comes along...they are much more prone to degenerative conditions in the spine and extremities.
Conditions such as bulging discs, disc herniations, degenerative disc disease, osteoarthritis, and spinal stenosis are very common with NFL players. In fact, I have read articles that support the fact that a career in the NFL actually shortens your lifespan.
But hey...it' s a personal choice and most would be willing to pay the physical price to achieve the monetary rewards and social status.
Anyway...I know there are some NFL players (current and retired) that have done nonsurgical spinal decompression with the DRX9000. Some do this on their own...without the team knowing...and some do it with the blessing of the team.
What I think is this...I think all NFL teams should have DRX9000 machines on-site, and they should routinely run the players through spinal decompression therapy to reduce the odds of injury and promote the healing of ongoing spinal disc trauma. Why Not? It' s quick, it' s safe...it does what no other form of physical therapy (or chiropractic) does by elongating the spine, re-positioning the spinal discs, re-hydrating the discs, and strengthening the spinal ligaments.
It makes so much sense. Then...when players are finished playing, they should continue with nonsurgical spinal decompression to help the spine heal and reduce the odds of ongoing spinal problems and arthritic conditions developing.
Anyway...that' s my two cents. If any NFL players, trainers, team owners, or physicians read this article, you are welcome to contact me atebendavis@yahoo.com. I can help you setup spinal decompression at your facility. It would be one of the best things you ever did for your players.
