Things such as aging accidents are things that we cannot control. As we age, our bones and muscles becomes more prone for accidents or degeneration. Accidents can also cause serious trauma to our bones and discs.
There are several ways on how to identify if you have herniated disc. Herniated disc can occur in several places all over the body. It is usually where the pain originates, it can be at the lower back, upper back or even neck. This can be associated with numbness, pain and weakness in a particular area.
To determine the location and severity of the disc problem I usually order an MRI or CT scan after a thorough history and exam have been done. Patients with disc problems may experience pain that may last for weeks, months or many years. Most of the patients that present to the Arizona Back Institute have been suffering for quite some time.
Over time, there are several ways and treatments on how to treat herniated discs.
Physical therapy, stretching, yoga and pilates are some of the most commonly used medical treatments for herniated discs. Other methods such as medications, spinal injections and surgery may also be applied.
However, most treatments does not address the problem long-term. Patients who suffer from herniated disc often go for decompression treatment. Among all the medical treatments developed to alleviate pain, decompression therapy is by far the most effective.
There are different machines that you can use for decompression therapy. What I personally prefer is using DRX9000. I've been a medical practitioner for the past 10 years and it is with this machine that I have seen tremendous results. Non-invasive yet highly effective.
The Understanding of the use of the DRX9000 is quite easy to comprehend. Since the main issue is in the treatment of herniated discs the treatment is ideal. It works by reducing the pressure in the disc until such time that a vacuum is formed. This vacuum reduces the herniation and decreases the pressure on nerves and other pain sensitive structures, reducing the feelings of pain and the disability.
Patients are required to complete 20 sessions of spinal decompression therapy. They may be asked to do the therapy 4-5 times per week. This is often accompanied by other supportive exercises and overall effectiveness of the treatment.
Disc problems such as herniated disc will definitely change the lives of the patients. That is why it is imperative to only go for the best medical treatment there is. This will avoid having to repeat procedures over and over. - 15683
