If you're suffering from neck or back pain, have you been told that you will just have to live with the pain, or that back surgery is your only option? The DRS™ Protocol, an innovative form of spinal decompression therapy, may be the back surgery alternative you are looking for.
What is Spinal Decompression Therapy?
Spinal Decompression Therapy involves stretching the spine, using a traction table or similar motorized device, with the goal of relieving back pain and/or leg pain, a back surgery alternative. This procedure is called nonsurgical decompression therapy.
Spinal decompression devices use the same basic principle of spinal traction that has been offered by chiropractors, osteopaths, and other trained health professionals for many years. Both traction and decompression therapy are applied with the goals of relieving pain and promoting an optimal healing environment for bulging, degenerating, or herniated discs.
Spinal decompression is a type of traction therapy applied to the spine in an attempt to bring about several theoretical benefits including:
• Create a negative intradiscal pressure to promote retraction or repositioning of the herniated or bulging disc material.
• Create a lower pressure in the disc that will cause an influx of healing nutrients and other substances into the disc.
The DRS™ Protocol has shown to be a very successful back surgery alternative, without drugs or other pain management techniques. It allows you to keep working and doing the things you enjoy as there is no recovery from surgery to deal with. Before making a decision about spinal surgery, obtain the opinion of a doctor of chiropractic and find out more information about a possible back surgery alternative.
