DRX9000 | Spinal Decompression | Tyler TX

Millions of Americans are affected by chronic back pain and neck pain each year. When pain becomes so severe it alters an individual’s daily life, certain physicians will recommend a painful surgical procedure followed by a lengthy rehabilitation program. The Tyler, Texas pain management specialists at Pain Recovery Center of Tyler understand not all patients desire to undergo surgery, and are proud to offer the DRX9000™ spinal decompression system. Spinal decompression is a non-invasive, safe and effective treatment option for numerous spine conditions.

Back pain is found more commonly in adults aged 35-55 years, even though it can affect individuals at any age. Back pain can occur suddenly or over an extended amount of time. Chronic back pain is characterized by pain that lasts 12 weeks or longer and is not alleviated by common self-care items such as rest, heat/ice and nonprescription medications.

The DRX9000 spinal decompression system is a cutting-edge machine that safely, effectively and gently stretches compressed joint spaces, leading to decreased pressure on the spinal nerves and discs that causes pain, weakness, numbness and tingling. The gradual stretching also allows for an increased flow of oxygen and healing nutrients to reach the discs, often contributing to improved spinal joint function.

Spinal Decompression | Spine Pain | Tyler Texas

Many patients with an injured spinal disc causing chronic spine pain believe back or neck surgery is the only option. It simply is not. Spinal discs have the ability to heal on their own if properly treated by a pain physician. A safe, effective and non-invasive treatment option is the DRX9000™ spinal decompression system. The DRX9000™ system achieves decompression of the injured joint space and spinal disc without painful surgery. Pain Recovery Center of Tyler, proudly serving the greater Tyler, Texas area, offers the DRX9000™ spinal decompression system designed to decompress the injured joint space and spinal disc in order to alleviate chronic back pain or neck pain.

Nonsurgical spinal decompression works by gently stretching the spine over an extended period of time, changing the forces and position of the spine. This change takes pressure off the injured spinal disc. As a result, many patients will experience alleviated spine pain associated with their injury. For example, a patient affected by a bulging or herniated disc will often experience relief from retraction of the injured disc. Spinal decompression takes pressure off the nerves and other critical structures in the spine, promoting movement of water, oxygen and nutrient-rich fluids into the injured disc in order to promote healthy healing.

Low Back Pain | Pain Physicians | Pain Recovery Center of Tyler

Many people spend countless hours each day sitting at a desk or other work station. The outcome can be low back pain. The pain physicians at Pain Recovery Center of Tyler in Tyler, Texas specialize in low back pain and the treatments associated with this condition.

The average American sits for thirteen hours a day and sleeps for eight hours. That is a total of 21 hours a day off their feet. With approximately only three hours of activity, low back pain can become a common occurrence. Standing and walking as much as possible is a better alternative to sitting as they burn more calories, tone muscles, improve posture, increase blood flow, reduce blood sugar and improve metabolism.

So, what about the connection between low back pain and sitting? Sitting is proven to be hard on the spine. The pressure inside of discs, those “shock absorbers” that lie between each vertebra in the spine, is higher when we sit compared with simply standing or lying down. To help relieve the pressure on discs and help alleviate low back pain, pain physicians recommend:

• Getting up periodically and standing
• Sitting back in a chair and avoiding slouched positions
• Placing a lumbar roll behind the low back and chair/car seat
• Changing body position frequently when sitting

If you suffer from low back pain and want to learn more about pain management treatments, visit our blog or contact the pain physicians at Pain Recovery Center of Tyler located in Tyler, Texas.
