Ive had 2 back surgeries for lower back disc. I have tried acupuncture this helped my back pain for a few minutes but no long term results. I have also gone to a chiropractor which gave me the same results. I have seen ads about spinal decompression for a few years now but haven’t seemed to get any first hand answers on if it really helps. I would like to know if anyone has any information on it for someone in my same situation with already having surgery.
Chiropractor stretches and pops your back.
Spinal decompression is a procedure that slightly pulls your back to relieve pressures that are compressing your spinal disks.
I heard about a chiropractor offering spinal decompression as an alternative to back surgery for slipped or herniated disc. What does decompression therapy do?
So I was diagnosed a few months ago with a herniated L5 disc in my lower back. I dont have time for the physical therapy, and it takes way to long. Do you think Spinal Decompression will work for me?
I am suffering from chronic back pain which is caused by a raptured disc in my lower back which also sends burning pain to my left leg. The amount of pain is emmense, sometimes intollerable. The specialist told me to do surgery but I am reluctant to that because I know a few people who did surgery but their condition is no better than what it used to be before surgery. A friend gave me the phone number of a doctor who claims that he treats this with spinal decompression in a machine and asks for ,000 which insurance won’t cover.
Does anyone know if that is going to be effective or do surgery. Please advise from your experience and knowledge that which movements are good to do, which physical activities and what to avoid? You would have helped a person who is dying from pain. Thank you.
I saw 2 persons who propose a spinal decompression treatment. Both combine spinal decompression and physical therapy. But the main difference between them is that one give a custom moldable orthotic brace and not the other. So I don’t know which one to use. Here are the details of the brace: Comfortable and easy to wear will stabilize healing back muscles, joints and ligaments. Worn consecutively for the first 5 treatments and after each session thereafter.
If they work so well (which they possibly do) why would the hospitals and clinics not use them for curing and/or pain relief.
p.s. By the way these treatments are not cheap.
Looking to get rid of my back pain permanently and heard of this Spinal Decompression machine called the DRX9000. Any one out there know how much does the treatment cost? Are the results permanent?
