Spinal Decompression Therapy Reverses Herniated Discs
Contributed by Orange County Spinal Decompression at the Irvine Family Health Center

Herniated Discs can cause a variety of symptoms – many can be severe and debilitating. Several treatment options exist to treat the symptoms of a Herniated Disc, but a revolutionary treatment known as DRX9000 Spinal Decompression Therapy has turned the world of Herniated Disc treatment upside down.

A Herniated Disc in the Low Back can cause numbness, tingling, burning, sharp pain or weakness in the low back, legs or feet. Sharp pain shooting down the back of the legs is often called Sciatica.

A Herniated Disc in the Neck can cause numbness, tingling, burning, sharp pain or weakness in the arms or hands. Symptoms such as these in the hands can often be mistaken for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.

DRX9000 Spinal Decompression Therapy reduces pressure within the spinal discs (also called decompression) by slow and methodically separating the bones of the spine. When the pressure is brought down to zero and then below zero a vacuum is formed. The vacuum “sucks” the Herniated portion of the disc back toward the center. Over time the disc regains its healthy shape returning the spine to its normal pain-free function.
