Non-Surgical Solution to a Herniated Disc | Chiropractor for Disc Injuries in Newport Beach, CA
Spinal Decompression is a nonsurgical alternative treatment for lumbar disc injuries, particularly disc herniations, because it aims to address the root cause of the pain: pressure on the spinal nerves. Spinal Decompression is the most important treatment for lumbar disc problems because the treatment gently stretches your spine at the specific angle and creates a negative pressure within the disc. This sucks the disc material back in, relieving pressure on your impinge nerves and reducing pain. Your body is intelligent, self-healing, and self-regulating with this treatment. This allows the flow of fluids and nutrients into your disc, promoting healing and aiding in disc repair.
Comparison to Spinal Traction
This is different from spinal traction as a spinal decompression machine, the DRX 9000, is much more specific in treating your disc problem. Traction is more of a general stretch throughout your spine. While the DRX 9000 changes the angle which it pulls to give you the best results.
Efficacy and Treatment Success
The only way to repair your disc is to cut it out or suck it back in. While the success rate for back surgery is only 60-80%, we have an 88 to 91% success rate with the DRX 9000. So, give us a call today.
