The science and medicine of chiropractic is based on the central nervous system and its control over the function of every cell, muscle, tendon, organ, and system of your body. Your nervous system consists of your brain, spinal cord, and the millions of nerves that run throughout your body. Even though your brain is protected by your skull, your spine is composed of not one, but of twenty four moving bones or vertebrae. Many everyday activities can cause these twenty four bones to shift and lose their normal position. When this occurs, the nervous system begins to experience dysfunction such as pain, swelling, and ultimately this causes ill health. The chiropractic approach is to find the problem and then help the nervous system prevent dysfunction that damages, and thus promote healthy living.
Disc Decompression
One of the largest issues chiropractors and orthopedic doctors face today is the compression of discs in the spine, also known as disc compression. Chiropractors and others combat this issue with non-surgical Disc Decompression Therapy. This therapy is the world’s most advanced non-surgical treatment for low back conditions.
The Disc Ease Therapy targets lumbar level discs by creating a negative pressure or vacuum effect in the disc, allowing the center of the disc to return to its proper position, un-herniating the disc.
Non-Surgical Disc Decompression Therapy is a valued therapy over surgery offered by chiropractors and orthopedic doctors alike. Lately surgery, physical therapy, and medication have been the chosen regimen for patients who suffer from a compressed disc. Spinal surgeries, however, come with inherent dangers. Patients can suffer from permanent debilitating conditions, and medications make it difficult to carry on with day to day living. Most importantly, spinal surgery only treats the pain, not the cause of the problem.
Non-surgical Disc Decompression Therapy has been proven to be a successful treatment for low back pain due to disc herniations, degenerative disc disease, sciatica, arthritis, and posterior facet syndrome. It is even a more preferable treatment for the health and well being of the elderly.
