Non-Surgical Procedure Decreases Disc Lesion

By Dr. Randall Pruitt

In a research published in US Musculoskeletal Review, a 31-year old male with a history of low back pain.

Prior to treatment with the DRX9000, an MRI of the lumbar spine revealed a left paracentral disc extrusion at L5/S1 that was compressing and displacing the left S1 nerve root. In addition, degenerative disc disease was noted at L4/5 and L5/S1. The patient also reported an overall pain level of 9 on a 0-10 scale. The patient underwent 27 treatments on the DRX9000 over a seven-week period and at his final treatment he reported a pain level of 3 that occurred only 30% of the time.

Follow-up MRI demonstrated a dramatic decrease in the size of the disc lesion as well as the compression placed on the left S1 nerve root.

Patient went through 27 sessions of decompression therapy using DRX9000.

During his last session, his MRI showed demonstrated a dramatic decrease in the size of the disc lesion as well as the compression placed on the left S1 nerve root.

Individual patients experience will differ case to case. Physicians are the ones who can really tell whether the treatment using DRX9000 is really effective or not.
